I totally agree. Lost is my current favourite.

Re: Favourite TV Shows

I kind of know how you feel Cornelius. I didn't bother taping the ninth Doctor Who and by the time I really got into it (i.e the second episode) I figured I'd just buy the dvd. Then I heard about the boxset. The sacred boxset. Months later I heard about the price and choked on my coffee. I maybe be able to afford it sometime in the new year :-)

As for Lost (the second best T.V series this year, I think everyone will agree) I had no choice but to tape every episode just so that I could see it. But my younger sisters mesed up the video recorder. Argh. So i haven't seen the last 4/5 episode of the first series. So thats yet another boxset I'll be forking out for. Except that over here, we have only got the first few episodes on one dvd and the last few on another. Apparently you can import dvds that have the whole series in one set.

Re: Favourite TV Shows

We could order the whole first serie the day before the last episode came on. Still, that doesn't get me near the second series.

I'll have to watch other series in stead.

Re: Favourite TV Shows

i have a couple more shows to add to my list, one is Veronica Mars, that's a great show. also Over There turned out to be just as good as i hoped, i like Surface and Threshold (i'm loving the amount of new sci-fi out lately), Wife Swap is a guilty pleasure, as is Miss Match, Drawn Together is a riot ("i've got a mayonaise mama on my lickin' hole, and we've only just begun...").
and one of my faves i think i forgot to mention last time is INVADER ZIM!!

Ones that are still on air...
The Shield
Saturday Night Live
Monk
Boston Legal

Old ones...
Seinfeld
Friends

I'm sure I'm leaving many out.

With all the birds & the bees
