First question: Are you a guy? Second question: Are you single?
I agree and relate to so much of what you said it's crazy
Do you know how many times I watched Becoming part 2? I even taped the Full of Grace song on to tape and listened to it over again, although annoyed that Joyce's voice had to be on it
I started Buffy from the beginning, but would have been in year 11 by the time I saw the end of Season 2. One of the funniest thing was my year 12 English teacher was a huge Buffy fan and he even brought the show up during class at times.
I also LOVED Roswell and John Doe. Roswell had 3 great seasons, it even got me into reading the books, even though they were vastly different. John Doe was such an interesting show, I was so disappointed when it was cancelled. Dominic Purcell is an Aussie, so I started watching it when I heard he was going to be in it. I haven't seen it for so many years now, is it available on dvd anywhere, I would love to see it again.
Supernatural of course is a must watch for me and have been hooked on that from the very beginning.
TOP SHOW LIST:
The X-Files
Buffy
Battlestar Galactica
Supernatural
La Femme Nikita
Farscape
LOST
Friends
I am a guy, in touch with his 'feminine' side and not afraid to admit it!
I'm as masculine as can be, but I got to admit, you put me in front of an episode of Buffy and I turn into a sap. I don't know how someone, like Whedon, can create such 'winning formula,' but my hat goes off to the guy because he did it. Supernatural is another show from the 'same vein.' It just works so well and on the plus side, doesn't make a sap out of me. (Buffy is enough. Lol) Kripke was a genius having pitched those first, 5 seasons the way he did to The WB/CW. To have that much awesomeness already planned out is pretty amazing, in hindsight.
As for Doe, I think at one time (in the not-so-distant past) Hulu.com had all of the episodes streaming for free. It might even still be there. I'll check into it and let you know. Purcell is one heck of an actor. I really enjoyed his work in Prison Break as well.
Another show I totally forgot to mention and most deserving of top honors was Smallville! It had its' 'ups and downs,' but again, any show that lasts 10 seasons did something right. It was another show I practically grew up with. Rosenbaum was[\U] Lex Luthor. I don't know if I've ever seen an actor embody a superhero-based villain THAT well. Again, I could on and on, but will save that for another thread.
Checking out the others on your list, I never finished the entire X-Files series and sadly, I own all of the seasons. I've just never taken the time. I did see LOST and thought it was brilliant. The writers for that show were something great. I actually didn't start watching though until it had practically ended its run, so I was behind on the hype at the time. Now, I can definitely appreciate why.
Nice list.
Be sure to check it out.
