Firefly, the sci-fi series?

Exactly, that's why I watch those now. Totally cleaned it up.

But some of those reality shows are really borderline in my opinion ... sometimes they're really cut-throat too! (Note -- I don't watch too much tv either).

Okay the Bachelor is a bit harsh BUT it's funny! "Oh, I was totally in love with him ::sniff, wiping away many tears:: even though I only knew him for a week. He really was my soul-mate!"

My goodness, how can you not laugh hysterically!

How could I forgot honorable mentions? That '70s Show of course (I'm not even certain this wouldn't end up on my top five list), I can occasionally watch M*A*S*H*, but I mostly like it because it is in a military setting. Leave It To Beaver is a timeless classic, Sanford and Son deserves a mention, Psych, Monk, and I think that should do it.

Parks and Recreation
The Office (US)
Roseanne
Married...With Children
The Big Bang Theory (only because we watch it sometimes in psych class)

Can't limit myself to 5...

All in the Family
The Jeffersons
Good Times
The Nanny
Fawlty Towers
Keeping up Appearances
Sanford and Son
Are You Being Served

And, although not necessarily a "sitcom" per se, "Razor Tales" (a local cable TV show that I can best describe as a Sicilian version of "Wayne's World")

Okay, Norse... since we're fairly close to the same age...

I was thinking of mentioning AITF, but I'm wondering... Do you think it holds up well? I watched it as a kid and always liked it (My mother was pretty liberal with my tv watching.) And I can watch certain episodes in reruns because they are especially good. But... overall... Don't you think it has too much of that 70s flavor?

I also considered MASH, too. Ironically, it, too has that overarching 70s flavor....


Mmmm... Over-arching 70s flavor....

I think MASH was great early on, it was pretty bad in the second half of the series. Trapper leaving really hurt the show, but it was still good. After Frank left, it was a bad show. My favorite character was definitely Col. Flagg.

Sadly, only three seasons. Very underrated show.

Yep, and yep. Once they became friends with Margaret...? No. No. No. Just cancel it.

Agreed. I was looking for a funny quote to post here, but I couldn't find one that would be appropriate for phatmass. :|

Ohh... Michael C. Hall (Dexter) is super H-A-W-T.
[/quote] Agreed :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

[quote name='Freedom' timestamp='1352404587' post='2506620'] it is the last season and I'll never watch a show like that again, EVER! [/quote] It is the 2nd to last season.

[quote name='Freedom' timestamp='1352404587' post='2506620'] This season is bad too with Dexter's sister saying the Lord's name in vain along with some inappropriate words. [/quote]
Really? A few naughty words is what makes this show inappropriate? Have you ever even watched Dexter? :lol:

The older I get, the more I appreciate Archie Bunker.
