So, what are your all-time favorite television shows?

Junejer — Fri, 09 May 2008 18:12:35 GMT

For my money, I love Seinfeld. George Costanza is my favorite regular character (Believe it or not, George isn't at home. Please leave a message at the beep. I must be out or I'd pick up the phone, where can I be? Believe it or not, I'm not home" Beeeeep). Sung to the tune of Greatest American Hero.

David Puddy is my favorite recurring character. *with stupid look on face* "Yeah, that's right."

My other favorite show is Sanford & Son. Redd Foxx is the best. How would you like five across your lips?

So, what's your favorite?

Space: Above and Beyond
the original Battlestar Galactica
Moonlighting
Trauma: Life in the ER (go, ivy!)
Spice Up My Kitchen (HGTV) - plus just about any other show that involves gut jobs: tearing out a room or rooms to the studs and starting over
Zorro (when I was a kid)
My Friend Flicka (ditto)
I Spy
Boston Legal (horrified fascination)
Navy NCIS
St. Elsewhere
Chicago Hope (silly show, but it had Mandy Patinkin and again, Mark Harmon)

Kinda all over the place, I suppose.

Hmmm, once you go over the half-century mark, there are an awful lot to remember!

edit to add:

The Muppet Show!!! OMG, how could I have left that out.
Divine Design --if I win the lottery, I'm hiring Candice Olson to do everything. Period.
CNN American Morning, back when it was Soledad O'Brien and Miles O'Brien. Now it's just stupid, and pretty.
Pushing Daisies!!! --Best show of the season! I so hope it recovers from the writers' strike.

All time favorite, best show ever, Seinfeld - favorite episode about Shrinkage...Elaine saying "I don't know how you guys walk around with those."

Current...House (he is a mean SOB) , Any Law and Order, Brothers and Sisters (stupid but fun), Sometimes Medium, Iron Chef and Good Eats. Also with Ivy...love the disaster and ER shows on Discovery Health, fall (or at least try to) asleep to them every night, wonder why I have weird dreams.

Still lover reruns of MASH

And, if it still came on reruns on the kid's channels, I would be glued to Fraggle Rock !

Does anyone else remember Mystery Science Theater 3000? That was an AWESOME show.

I had better add HGTV in general, or my kids will slay me. I especially like the house flipping on HGTV and TLC. I should add, please don't add sports, as that is a given for most guys. For me it's ESPN and HGTV.

Moonlighting was a good show. Bruce & Sybil. I haven't seen that in years.

"I'm just a bill, yes I'm only a bill, and I'm sittin' here on Capitol Hill, where I'll go off to the whitehouse...Oh how I want to be a law someday, how I hope and pray that I will, but today I am still just a bill."

That is the best. Conjunction, junction was pretty cool too.
