The tv show I lament most is West Wing.. Greatest tv writers ever... then X-Files.. god, I loved that red headed genius!

The rest are mostly ones already posted.. shows that take us back to a simpler time... and theme songs were catchy

Oh, I miss The West Wing. Though it was a little over the top sometimes. Still, a solid show.

Dear Blade & Corkey,

Back then life was so simple. I loved riding bikes, climbing trees, playing sports, fishing, playing in streams, and fields. I will never forget having a clear jar with frogs, crickets, and what not in it and I put in the refrig. because it was summertime. I didn't want the animals to break a sweat.

I will never forget the blood-curdling scream the next morning.

Yes, I believe you can grab it off the shelf at a rental.

And for Micheal Moore fans, he did a series years ago called The Awful Truth:

Seinfeld.

Write14u · 02-09-2010, 11:17 PM

My all-time fave show is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It had some of the best writing ever. Love, love, love this show.
It's spin-off, Angel, was also excellent, and got to be a bit more dark.

I don't watch much TV. I tend to see things on re-run because I work nights.
But I totally ADORE CSI:NY. (Can you say Melina Kanakaredes...yum!)

I also like Family Guy, King of the Hill and Robot Chicken.

And of course, I totally grew up a fan of all the older ones that have been mentioned.

I love King of the Hill - Hank IS my Dad

...Hank looks exactly like my Dad and has the same sort of simple outlook on life.......it makes me chuckle even more because of this.
