Day 01 - A show that should have never been canceled

And were it not for the production company going bankrupt, it'd still be on the air. *sigh*

For other shows that fall under this category see my TV shows I still wish were on list.

The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:11:47 GMT

Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching

Boardwalk Empire

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:11:54 GMT

Day 03 - Your favorite new show (aired this t.v. season)

Merrie Melodies: Starring Bugs Bunny and Friends

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:12:09 GMT

Day 04 - Your favorite show ever

This is a place holder for pretty much all series devoted to Looney Tunes.

Friends

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:12:35 GMT

Day 05 - A show you hate

Along with far too many others to list, none of which are worthy of images.

Duck Amuck

Day 06 - Favorite episode of your favorite t.v. show

...no matter how many times I watch this I still laugh uncontrollably.

Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite t.v. show

Anything with Pepe Le Pew, because if you've seen one you've seen them all. He's my least favorite character.

The Muppet Show

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:19:06 GMT

Day 08 - A show everyone should watch

If you don't like the Muppets, there must be something wrong with you.

House M.D.

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:24:29 GMT

Day 09 - Best scene/episode ever

"Broken", in which House underwent rehab for his vicodin addiction (and which should have lasted an entire season instead of one extended episode)

Actually this is just my favorite episode of THIS SHOW. Every show I enjoy watching has at least one episode that's my favorite, and were I to limit this to scenes I'd be stuck forever trying to determine which bit from Monty Python's Flying Circus is my favorite. So here I went with a simpler choice.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force

Day 10 - A show you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving

At first I didn't like this show, but over time it won me over. I figure that counts, yes?

Clerks

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:19:42 GMT

Day 11 - A show that disappointed you

I've only seen the pilot episode, and it was complete crap. Unsurprisingly, after it aired the series was cancelled. Why it's picked up a devoted following since I have no idea.

Sealab 2021

Day 12 - A t.v. show you’ve watched more than 4 times

I've watched the first 2 seasons at least 4 times since I've had them on DVD. If you go by episodes, I've also seen ones from Invader Zim, Frisky Dingo, Batman the Animated Series, Animaniacs, and tons of the Looney Tunes cartoons too many times to count.

Transformers

Day 13 - Favorite childhood show

For others, see my Childhood TV favorites list.

Bored to Death

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:20:17 GMT

Day 14 - Favorite male character

George Christopher played by Ted Danson

There are many others, but this is my current favorite.

Invader ZIM

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:19:53 GMT

Day 15 - Favorite female character

Gaz played by Melissa Fahn

Also among others.

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show

Actually I don't believe in the term "guilty pleasure" because I don't believe in feeling guilty for enjoying something. But many times when watching this show I question whether I should like it at all.

Day 17 - Favorite mini series

Make that made-for-TV-movie

I've only watched a handful of mini-series, and can't remember enough about them to honestly call one my favorite. That's probably due to my watching them mostly during the 80s, and once I got to high school I quit caring about short-run series. I had better things to do with my time, and have ever since. So instead I chose a movie, and I'll admit I didn't watch many made-for-TV-movies after the early 90s either.

The Twilight Zone

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:26:11 GMT

Day 18 - Favorite title sequence

Also: Six Feet Under, Monty Python's Flying Circus, and Venture Bros.

Monty Python's Flying Circus

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:22:19 GMT

Day 19 - Best t.v. show cast

Because you can't replace or lose any of them and have it be the same.

Also: Arrested Development, Black Adder, Bored to Death, and Community

The Wonder Years

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:22:41 GMT

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

Kevin and Winnie

Because it was the first one I cared about. Now my favorite would be the ones between Ned and Chuck on Pushing Daisies (which you can see in others' lists), but opted to not use them because....

Pushing Daisies

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:22:41 GMT

Day 21 - Favorite relationship

Ned and Chuck

The Walking Dead

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:22:54 GMT

Day 22 - Best pilot episode

...also the series' best episode so far. Hoping season 2 finds the time to equal or outdo it.

In Living Color

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:23:07 GMT

Day 23 - Most annoying character

Wanda played by Jamie Foxx

I went with the most annoying character I could think of from shows I actually enjoy. Otherwise this spot could be held by anyone from Fran Drescher's nanny to everyone on Dharma and Greg or Will and Grace or Friends or Gilmore Girls or any number of other crappy shows I've had the misfortune to see any part of.

The Boondocks

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:23:28 GMT

Day 24 - Best quote

Huey: "Excuse me. Everyone, I have a brief announcement to make. Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan was the devil, and the government is lying about 9-11. Thank you for your time and good night."

or

"Vision? What do you know about my vision? My vision would turn your world upside down, tear asunder your illusions, and send the sanctuary of your own ignorance crashing down around you. Now ask yourself, are you ready to see that vision?"

or MLK Jr.'s speech, which I won't reproduce here.

Again, I could pull favorite quotes from any of my other favorite shows.

Twin Peaks

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:23:44 GMT

Day 25 - A show you plan on watching (old or new)

At the time it ran on TV I was too young to appreciate it.

Also: Freaks and Geeks, Dexter, and whatever else is in my Netflix queues I'm not thinking of right now.

The Venture Bros.

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:23:51 GMT

Day 26 - OMG WTF? Season finale

"Return to Spider-Skull Island"

Six Feet Under

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:24:58 GMT

Day 27 - Favorite series finale

Day 30 - Saddest character death

Nate

The Dukes of Hazzard

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:24:14 GMT

Day 28 - First t.v. show obsession

My parents have always told me that this was the first show I refused to miss an episode of. Funny, now I barely remember any of it.

Community

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 23:19:12 GMT

Day 29 - Current t.v. show obsession

Currently my favorite show on TV for many many reasons.
