Favorite tv shows of all time

[rusejery]

HI all,
This is a favorite list, not a best list. I am not interested in what you think the ten best shows of all time are, because then we get into a discussion of what makes a show great and/or historically viable and important. This does not interest me right now. I just want to know your ten faves! There is only one rule: You can list only ten. Make some choices, people. They can be soaps, Saturday morning cartoons or BassMasters! My number one is my number one, the rest are in no order.

1. Family Ties
2. The Joy of Painting
3. Star Trek: The Next Generation
4. The West Wing
5. 24
6. Transformers The original, not that computer generated crap they came up with later.
7. The Muppet Show
8. Airwolf
9. The Simpsons
10. The Sopranos

Re: Favorite tv shows of all time

For me the only show that's really resonating with me a lot is Mad Men. It's one of the best written shows I've ever come across.

Other faves include the holy trinity of South Park, Family Guy and The Simpsons, Weeds, ER (up until Clooney left, the season where Mark had brain cancer and some of the seasons afterwards), Robotech and a handful of others.

Re:

Interestingly, myself & a co-worker were discussing the other day, shows you used to watch growing up but seem ridiculous now. Such as Knight Rider, Airwolf, Fall Guy, A-Team, etc. Of course, there are the classics we all watched when we were way young like Sesame Street & The Muppet Show. My overall list...

-Seinfeld
-Law & Order
-Miami Vice
-The Office (UK Version)
-Young Ones
-Chips
-Family Guy
-Saturday Night Live ('70's)
-Taxi
-X-Files
