It's no longer on, but I'd say Fullmetal Alchemist.

... FireFly was the best SciFi program that nobody watched, IMHO.

.... Heroes is pretty fantastic, and BattleStar Gallactica is also very damned good.

... I like the Chapelle's Show (sp), too. That guy cracks me up!

I have to say one of my favorite shows is Star Trek. I like the original and The Next Generation. The rest of them are all just crap using the name for fame.

I am also surprised no one has said Beauty and the Geek.

Its all about Green Wing. Funniest program of all time in my opinion. The last ever episode special was a bit strange though...

Yeah. Last Nights wasn't too great. The one from 2 weeks ago with the Blackness Meter and Man vs. Beast was amazing though.

they didnt. but i watch it now in the 2000s. im still alive you know. pluss jamie was alive back then and he did a show in my backyard when he came to france. oh and i think this is from my dont post on this thread thing, but, my most famous battle was The Battle of Austerlitz. I won it. it was against the Rusians and the Austrians. they outnumberd me 5 to 1 and i still won by tricking themm into doing what i wanted. I gave up Pratzen Heights and gave it to the Russians and Austrians (now known as the Third Coalition). Then i deliberately weakened my right flank to persuade the Third Coalition into attacking it. once they had sent so many troops i took my center and left flanck and swept around their armie and attacked their cent and rear (rear being Pratzen Heights). then, after that, i enveloped them and slughtered them.
Casualties Me: 1,305 dead; 6,940 wounded; 573 captured; 1 standard lost.

Casualties Third Coalition: 15,00 dead or wounded 12,000 captured; 180 guns lost; 50 standards lost.

Gotta agree with that

Gilmore Girls is hands down the best show ever. Although i have to agree it jumped the shark after Rory decided to "leave yale" but I think pre-leaving yale the show was wonderful.

Will & Grace is also funny definitely hilarious but it jumped the shark somewhere in the final seasons. They just didn't have anymore good stories.

Grey's Anatomy I think it's a good show now I just want to see how it plays out, i heard they want to do a spinoff with addison which might be it's jumping of the shark.

Desperate Housewives, that show is hilarious. It's good humor. Season two wasn't as good as season one but it is making a comeback with season three.

I agree with the SNL thing, Dick in a box made me laugh too.

Heros. Lost. The shield are realy good. HBO seem to be the benchmark for american telly Oz is my all time favorite even though it got a bit silly in the later stages,
for british telly Cracker was a classic,the Office and Shameless are pretty funny.and you just cant beat Father Ted

Backglass · Post by **Backglass** » Tue Feb 27, 2007 8:53 am

Don't know if anyone has mentioned it, but "Psych" on USA is a frickin' funny show.

Great characters...and theme song.

Will Ferrell+Chris Farley= what would be the BEST SNL EVER!!!

oh ya I saw Man vs Beast

I also thought there were some good things in Rainn Wilson's run

like his gay joke which I sigged...

and that news report with amy poehler (sp?) is always good IMO

Agreed it's the most consistant channel.

Sopranos and Sex and The City are really good. They also had Six Feet Under. At last year's emmy's they took home the most awards too.

Buffy

The Sopranos
Quantum Leap
House
Dexter
Cheers
Only Fools and Horses

Incandenza · Post by **Incandenza** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 2:56 am

Gonna have to go with...

House (a procedural only works if you're into the characters, and Dr. House is one of the best characters on TV in recent memory)
Heroes (holy crap, if you haven't watched this show, you have to, and if you don't like it, I'm sorry that your mom dropped you when you were a baby)
Deal or No Deal (perhaps the most perfect game show ever created, inasmuch as you're equally happy to see people win big and people lose big)
24 (nuking Valencia was a good first move, I only wish the bomb had been bigger,

)
Rescue Me (Denis Leary is the man, and the supporting cast is first-rate)
The Simpsons (pretty much only on DVD and reruns at this point, tho)

Fish Breeder Boy · Post by **Fish Breeder Boy** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 3:22 am

Haha I just realized your shows are all Fox and NBC, I forgot 24 is awesome and I agree the plot is well laid out.

Deal or no Deal is fabulous. Although I think the people on there are so fake it's still amusing.

And Cheers, it's an old but classic. And Friends too, the newer seasons weren't as good but still I think it kept on beat.
