Best shows on TV:
- Ed: Is the second greatest man alive, trailing only Dr. Mike Burton. Never has an episode been bad. Every character is just so loveable: Warren, Ed, Mike, Phil, that crazy Shirley...even the dodgy Jim.
- Six Feet Under: Really shouldn't be on so late on a Monday night. Everyone should watch it because it actually makes you think occasionally...about life, about death. Bloody good show, and it was created by the writer of American Beauty (one of the two best films of all time, along with American Psycho).
- John Safran's Musical Jamboree: It's had TISM twice. That means it's good. Plus, John Safran is a fuckin' genius.
- Secret Life Of Us: On a recent trip to Melbourne with friends, we went to St. Kilda just to check out the Secret Life Of Us how. Why? Because it's such a bloody good show and Evan reminds me occasionally of me (see: the episode where all Evan's exes were coming back to haunt him and calling him 'manipulative').
- Sex & The City: I've grown to really like it. Never used to, but quite like it now.
- Dawson's Creek: No explanation necessary.

You have very varied taste.
I completley agree with the Six Feet Under comment, i never would have discovered it if I hadnt been flick during the adds in Buffy. Seriously cool.
As is John Saffron, I love the Music Mole and how they play croquet.
But Dawsons Creek and Sex in the City? They are so unoriginal (once everyone got over the fact that they used the c-word on Sex in the City) and pridicatable and unrealisitc. I mean escapism is one thing but you can take it a little too far

Big Time, those shows are so predictable, Dawson's creek majorly sucks.

I agree with you about John Safran, he is a genius

Hehe was there any more inventive game show on TV? When I was younger (and 6am was actually a time I could get up) I loved watching the Saturday morning repeats... Hmmm maybe we should start the Bring Back It's A Knockout! Committee or something hehehe

I used to watch the original series when I was small (don't really remember much of it though...). But when I watched the new one I just cringed, its really crap.

Its trying to be both a teen series and a adult drama, and it fails at both. But this is only judging it on one episode, maybe it'll improve, but I doubt it...

TISM... TWICE!?! I have got to watch me some of this then. Last time i saw TISM was at Homebake.

They. Were. Pure. MONEY.

Shows i watch religiously include

- Sex and the City.
- Marshall Law.
- Angel and Buffy (Angel's better! I took the day off once to study... instead just watched all of Angel Season 3).
- Daria
- Stargate (It's Macgyver.. Pure unadultered Macgyver)
- The West Wing (Awesome acting...if i didn't know better i'd think that every episode was from a movie or something).

And which ever Trek series they're playing.. except for TOS. Thumbs down for TOS.

ANGEL AND BUFFY ROCKS!!!! i would have to say Buffy is the better show overall although, Angel was better in season 3 over Buffy's season 6. i love it when he's funny.

btw, have u seen cordy's hair??? what has she done to it?!?!? its a total turn off.
