Best TV show ever?

[beersandweirs]

In your opinion, what is the best TV show ever on TV, and why?

[beersandweirs]

I would have to say I think Arrested Development is the best TV show I have ever seen. It is so.so.funny and it gets better every time you watch it!

[billyhorrible]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
- Strong female character
- Good allegory for the teenage years
- great writing
- characters you want to be friends with
- musical episode
- vampires

[wegrowsheep]

Scrubs, duh.

[periwinkledaydreams]

Yay Arrested Development! So true its better every time. Like 10 times through the series and still noticing hidden jokes Ive missed.

I also loved Deadwood and want to rewatch it!

Another vote for Parenthood. I miss the Bravermans!

I love Parenthood. Cried SO HARD that last season. But not the best show ever. 

[jillywilly]

I think mine is Gilmore Girls. Love that show. But I think a lot of it has to do also with the memories tied to it - I can remember piling into one room with a bunch of sorority sisters to watch it every week, and those memories associated with that as well.

Psych or House

[carolyngrace]

Wow so tough. Without categories or anything? Because I second Parenthood for family drama and Friends for comedy. But can't ignore the West Wing and The Wire!!

I haven't either. I'll binge watch with you. When are the dates he is gone? My H will be gone the first 3 weeks of November. I let him go on a 40 birthday all guy surfing vacation in Bali. What was I thinking??! I said yes last year when I was still pregnant

Yep!

The seventh season is skippable, though.

Nobody has brought up Seinfeld yet? Y'all should be ashamed of yourselves!

He'll be gone from September 6-Nov 15? Then another 6 weeks job training but he'll be able to come home for weekends for those 6. That's very kind of you to let him go

Is this where I admit I never got into Seinfeld?

I love Seinfeld, but I couldn't get into Curb Your Enthusiasm, it was just too awkward for me.

Seinfeld is the worst and I will shout it from the rooftops. It's DH's favorite. I've seen every episode 100 times but I just do not like.

[erbear]

Curb is 1000x more awkward than AD. My h loves them both but has turned off curb because it was too awkward.

[beersandweirs]

I can't really explain why I find Curb harder to watch because of the awkwardness, because I definitely watch other shows that are just as awkward. Maybe I just don't like the rest of it enough to counter-act the awkwardness.

[heartofglass]

Hmmm. I'm going to say Friends, I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls.

[mcp6286]

FRIENDS! With Gilmore Girls running a very close second, so start watching holliberry28!

[beersandweirs]

We are on the last season of Mad Men right now and we will start The Wire next. We want to see if it lives up to the hype!
