What is your all time favorite TV show?

Recommended Posts

For me it really has to be Star Trek TNG. I can't help it. I'm not some sort of uber-trekkie. I don't go to conventions, I don't speak klingon and I have no idea what happened on DS9, but I can't get enough of this show. I watched it when it was still a first run show (well, syndicated, but it was syndicated in the beginning). I've seen every episode, but I can't help but record it every time its on TV with my DVR and watch it. Even the episodes I've seen dozens of times. I still watch with a smile on my face.

I've never even met any of the actors in real life. I guess I'm a closet trekkie. Yes its a big closet, but hey, its nice in here.:D

dam dave that's what I was going to say. Was watching it on sci fi earlier. Been thinking of getting the series on DVD. Just don't have the money at the moment. Never got into the conventions either.
if my calculations are correct SLINKY + ESCULATOR = EVERLASTING FUN

That, Carnivale, X-files (before it got too convoluted), Seinfeld, and MASH. And yeah, Star Trek TNG was pretty good too, but not so much that I always kept track of the story from episode to episode (I was glad most of them were standalones).

I'll also admit to having liked Friends, Ally McBeal (:$), and Celebrity Deathmatch.

Does 10 episodes count as a TV show? If so, put Band of Brothers up near the top too.

Ugh. I occasionally will watch that show, but my overall impression was that it was pretty lame, because there seemed to be NO military- or even quasi-military discipline kept aboard that ship. For christ's sake, they had a civilian population on board. It always struck me as a sort of "Love Boat in space." :|

For me, my favorite t.v. show of all time is "Firefly."

THAT is a well-done show. From the ground up, it excelled: casting, writing, special effects, performances, nuance... Just fuggin' amazing. :)

That show's on reruns around here laaaate at night. Frickin' GENIUS. :D It's 20-something years old and it still holds up and gets laughs! An all-time classic.

M*A*S*H deserves honorable mention, yeah.

The Shield

Scrubs

Firefly



and the best of all..... News Radio



I didn't think long about second, third, fourth place, etc. when I answered "Firefly," but your post blew me the fuck away. THOSE ARE *EXACTLY* THE SHOWS I WOULD HAVE CONTINUED MY LIST WITH! (In addition to Seinfeld and Cheers.) Well, except for The Shield. I haven't really ever seen that, but I've heard it's really good.

WoW we have similar tastes in t.v.

Forced to choose ...West Left Wing.
