Again, the diversity of opinion...I never really cared for that show (Seinfeld), I do like Everybody Loves Raymond. Comedy shows just don't do it for me, I love comedy but prefer it in the context of storytelling. When I turn off the TV and spend several hours thinking about an episode of a show, debating the moral complexities, allowing my mind to wander into the dark and back to the light...then I feel I've watched something worthwhile. I just watched the next to last episode of Forever Knight and now I wonder, what would have been my decision if faced with the choice Lacroix had almost 2000 years ago? Would I have killed my own daughter or....???

1. Gilmore Girls
2. Boston Legal
3. Buffy
4. Angel
5. Veronica Mars
6. Friends
7. The Cosby Show
8. Charmed
9. Brothers and Sisters
10. Dark Angel

My personal top 10. :) Sorry Somer, but Buffy is #3 for me, but it and Angel did make my list! Gilmore Girls and Boston Legal are the only tv shows that I have ALL the seasons on DVD and watch them over and over. Boston Legal never gets tiresome.

Hey, Buffy, Angel, VM, Dark Angel, Charmed...half my list! Have you ever seen Forever Knight....if not you should try it! It really is disturbing and I like that! Vastly underrated show...sure, it's not Joss and suffers in comparison but still a wonderful show!

I will have to look for that one. What is it about?

P.S. I put that Joss song on my page too!

I LOVE Veronica Mars right now.

VM will probably be cancelled after this year, they didn't order an entire season of episodes as is...shame cause it is far and away the best show on TV right now imo! Ms Bell and her "father" along with Logan are fantastic characters!
Forever Knight...well, it was on TV starting in 92 I think, so it predates Buffy and Angel. It's a story about Nick Knight, a homicide detective in Toronto and most plots have human bad guys like a typical cop show. Knight is however an 800 year old vampire trying to become human and atone for his past. His "father" is Lacroix, a general of Pompeii who was "brought across" about 24AD by his daughter Dalia. Nick has a "sister" named Janette who runs a local nightclub, she is slightly older than Nick (perhaps 900+). It is a fantastic mythology...the characters (Janette, Lacroix and Nick along with Nat...Nick's human girlfriend and several others) are wonderful and their relationships very complex. They cover a lot of issues, some very dark! In this world, vampires can fly and have some hypnotic powers, they reflect in mirrors...otherwise close to Angel/Buffy. There are good and bad vampires, very few episodes involve killing bad ones. I love Janette...truly a wonderful character as is Lacroix!

I haven't seen it yet but most folks I know like the series!

I prefer fantasy to sci-fi usually, I loved Star Trek in it's day and reincarnations and Firefly of course (but Firefly was a space western really with no aliens). I want to catch up with Battlestar sometime too!

And...to be clear, I like suspenseful horror, not blood and guts stuff. Never cared for Texas Chainsaw Mass or Devils Rejects type stuff. I like Buffy type horror...Hush for example. Forever Knight is very dark and has it's share of blood (hard to do vampires without blood) but doesn't rely on sensational violence and visual shock...it's horror is more in the mind...and to me, that's 1000x more scary!

Well, Forever Knight has an ending that is well, I wouldn't say happy...it's left open a crack but pretty much, Lacroix goes on alone, perhaps Janette is somewhere and the rest...well, I guess it comes down to faith. Buffy had a happy ending (to be continued soon), Angel was left to conjecture but certainly there was death, Charmed was happy, Dark Angel had zero closure...I guess endings, especially once you've become vested in characters, are never satisfying!

Welcome Back Kotter??

Doesn't anyone remember The Greatest American Hero!!

That's a classic!!

Now I know this is one of those to each his own threads, but those are some of the worst shows ever....I'm sorry I can't help it.....but again, it's all opinion....enjoy your dvd's....

Your entitled to your opinion but because you dislike something it doesn't necessarily make it bad! Others have chosen to list the shows they enjoy, it would seem to add more to the thread than simply making negative statements!

WOW! Someone mentioned V! I enjoy the mini-series (Beginning and The Final Battle)
