Favourite TV Show?

Post by Binky »

What's your favourite TV show? Mine is Later with Jools Holland (One day I'll think of something other than music... but not yet ;)), which celebrated it's 10th anniversary this morning (Posting to you at 1 am here) which ended with Radiohead... Save the best till last as it where :D

I'm not sure if I have a favourite. Aussies here will know of a show that ran a few years ago called "Good News Week". I quite liked that. That show had two teams of three comedians each (there was one regular and two guests per team) and they would have a sort-of gameshow revolving around news stories that had run during the week. Very funny show: they didn't really take themselves seriously, and it wasn't about winning, it was about having some fun. Great show, sad to see it gone.

One of the regulars, Mikey Robins, now co-hosts a popular breakfast radio show. Not to say anything bad about him, but I liked it better with the previous host (Andrew Denton). That was cool.

Of course, if you don't live in Australia (and you probably have to live in Sydney at that) then you won't have a clue what I'm on about.

Apart from that, I'll throw in a vote for Law and Order.

Don't know if it's shown anywhere other than England but Bottom is defintely my favourite. People either love it or hate it.

Btw, does LotR count if you see it extremely often ("Hey m8, whatcha wanna do?" "I don't know, crash and watch TV" "Aight, nothing interesting on. Let's put on LotR" "Aight" ...me and a friend of mine says this at least every 14th day or so)?

That is changing, of course...

Right now, it is Dark Angel (I generally like Cyberpunk and Dark Angel is quite close to the genre... Jessica Alba doesn't hurt either ;)), but there are plenty others, I like, including Friends, Sabrina, Buffy, Simpsons, Futurama, Ally McBeal, 24, Xena, Babylon 5, and more.

Voyager is the worst Star Trek series they made, isn't it (if taking away the focus from Geri Ryan, I mean ;))? DS9 was my favorite from Star Trek, definitely!

Heh

I know very, very few people who prefer Voyager over DS9, but as usual it's a matter of tastes.
About the only really cool thing about Voyager is the doctor, IMHO! ;)

Havn't seen the new Enterprise yet, but heard it would be pretty cool!

I'm a big fan of Alias and Scrubs.

Alias has a great storyline that always keeps you on the edge and manages to balance the 'human' aspect with the spy/action aspect. Not to mention Jennifer Garner is so hot even her wierd disguises she wears can't hide it.

Scrubs is pure fun, my favourite character has to be Dr. Cox with his sarcastic and cynical comments, kinda like me really...

We all have different opinions on our favorite shows, but I think we can all agree that ALL "reality t.v." is horrible. I laughed my ass off (partly in disgust and partly in pure hilarity) when I saw the preview for "Joe Millionaire" or whatever it's called.

Joe Millionaire is a great idea. I have no desire to watch it, but that is evil of Fox to do.

Nobody outside the Flanders knows about this show called "Alles kan beter!" (English: "Everything can be done better!"), it really crirzises the society, but not in an offensive way.
Really hilarious! "De Rechtvaardige rechters" on the other hand sux, 'caus it's a spin-off!

'Bout the series, I'll say Southpark ("Oh my god, they've killed Kenny!" and "Kyle, you're mother's a biatch!" and "You don't call me budpipe, budpipe!" !lol! !lol! !lol! )
I know you think that's sick, but out of the mouth of a 8 year old kid ... HIHIHI!!!
You also have Friends, which is REALLY good, I mean all of them!
Then there is "Band of Brothers". Magnificent!!! Too bad the serie only lasted 10 episodes and the lasqt 2 were quiet lame!! :cry:
