Oh, in case you were wondering why Star Trek is not there, even though my current signature image is from said series and I did put in there the Orville, which obviously is inspired by Star Trek, well, I actually am not a fan of the TV shows! I loved The Wrath of Khan (which that aforementioned picture of the Enterprise warping is from) and I liked Voyage Home, but other than that, I watched most of Next Generation (mostly because, for me there was nothing on at that time other than a few shows like Seinfeld and pro wrestling), and Voyager, but I have little interest in rewatching them.

I'm seeing a disturbing lack of Cowboy Bebop in here so far, people...



Looking through your guys' list gives me some great ideas for my next TV series binge watch, thanks for mentioning them!

I'm adding these shows to my TV watch list:
All in the Family....a classic!
The Orville...really liked the first couple seasons, need to catch the latest shows.
Match Game...original with Gene Rayburn, use to love this as a kid.
Simpsons...use to watch this years ago, like to check it out again.
Lost in Space (1965)...So silly that it's a blast!
Friends...I use to catch this in reruns but I never seen the entire series, gotta remedy that.
The Addams Family...
The Munsters...
Hogan's Heroes...
I Dream of Jeannie...

I forgot to add these to my all time favorite list:
The Beverly Hillbillies.
Batman (1966-1968)
Babylon 5
Happy Days ...there was 10 seasons of this, not easy to find but I watched every show a couple years back, then I watched ever episode of Johnnie Loves Chachi...not as bad as one might think.

I do! Gosh that's exactly what we watched when I was a kid, except my dad must have turned the channel as I never seen The Carol Burnett Show...I wonder what other show was on opposite of it?

"Griff" & "Owen Marshell: Attorney At Law"was Carol's competition. Do not recall either one.



Fun Idea for thread.

Some from when I was a child:
Bewitched
I Dream of Jeanie
Gidget
The Patty Duke Show
Mr. Roger's Neighborhood
Hazel (She looked like my grandmother to me. which my grandmother hated when I told her.)
The Carol Burnett Show

Some from when I was a teenager
The Prisoner
Star Trek TOS
Monty Python's Flying Circus

As an adult:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The Wire
Sex and the City
The Sopranos

As an old lady:
Below Deck (in all its iterations)
Vanderpump Rules
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
The Real Housewives of New York
The Real Housewives of New Jersey

Right now:
Any true crime. My favorite so far was HIgh: Confession of an Ibiza Drug Mule. It is a wild story of this likable young Irish woman who ends up in a Peruvian jail due to dating the wrong guy in Ibiza.



A system of cells interlinked
I have come to the conclusion that it is impossible for me to rank, and at various times in my life I have really enjoyed shows that I perhaps don't or wouldn't enjoy now. So, this is a list of shows that have made and impact on me and that I have enjoyed a ton through the years. Some of these shows fell off as they moved along, while others got better. Some of these, I may not really like or enjoy at all anymore, but was perhaps a huge fan in the past etc.

In no particular order at all:

Lost
Breaking Bad
Better Call Saul
The Americans
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
The Expanse
Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel
Battlestar Galactica (2004)
The Rockford Files
Star Trek: TNG
Star Trek: Voyager
Star Trek: TOS
NCIS
The X-Files
Twin Peaks
Firefly
The Wire
Ozark
Orphan Black
Veronica Mars
The Wonder Years
Mr. Rogers Neighborhood
Bosch
Columbo
The Leftovers
Mad Men
The Sporanos
