Official Rules (Important rules in red.)
Participation
- All participants will declare their desire to participate by saying so explicitly in a comment in this thread.
- The draft order has been set and is displayed above.
- I know some people might be interested who didn't mention it in the other thread. So anybody who asks to join the draft after it has begun can do so but must wait at least one full round before they can start choosing. Please feel free to join if we just started but you didn't sign up yet.
Selection Rules
- The premise is that you're by yourself on a deserted island but with plenty of food and drink and the best HDTV and sound system setup imaginable on which to watch your TV shows and keep you company. (You also have a magic satellite dish that has any TV show ever made On Demand.)
- You can pick any show made for television that airs multiple separate episodes. This includes your typical episodic television, mini-series, reality TV shows, talk shows, game shows, etc. This does not include made-for-TV movies or one time specials.
- Once a TV show is selected, the entire series is selected. This includes episodes that have not yet aired. You cannot pick individual seasons or eras for a show.
- Determining whether two shows are the same series will be done on a case by case basis. Some shows change their names and a character or two but are still the same show. In other cases, the show has the same name but is a different series. A good way to check is if the two shows have separate pages on IMDB. In fact, I think I'll make that the default standard and you can argue cases that you think are wrong.
- Rule examples:
Example: Valerie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090540/) and The Hogan Family (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090540/) are the same show. If I pick Valerie then you cannot pick the Hogan Family.
Example: Saved By The Bell (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096694/) and Saved By The Bell: The College Years (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106122/) are different shows. If I pick Saved By The Bell: The College Years, you can still pick Saved By The Bell.
Example: Stolen From the Heart (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0227563/) is a made for TV movie and cannot be selected.
Example: Live Earth (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1008002/) was a one-time concert special and is not eligible for this draft.
- Please PM me if you have a specific question about a show as to whether it is eligible.
- Posting a link to imdb and an image from the show would be helpful (but is not required). Please make sure you do post enough information for me to find and verify the exact show you are picking.
Draft Specifics
- The draft order will be determined by random draw via http://www.randomizer.org/form.htm. I promise I won't cheat.
- The draft will be a snake draft, meaning that whoever has the last pick in one round will have the first pick in the next. For example, if we have six people they will pick like this: 1-2-3-4-5-6-6-5-4-3-2-1-1-2-3...
- There will be 12 rounds, meaning everybody gets 12 picks. This is open for discussion.
- Each person will have 24 hours to make their pick. However, Saturday and Sunday don't count (although you can still pick on the weekends if it is your turn). The 24 hours starts after the previous person's pick or after the previous person's 24 hours expires (whichever comes first).
- Simply posting the name of your selection in this thread is enough to count it as being selected.
- If your turn is approaching and you know you will be away from the internet, you can PM your selection to me or the person scheduled to pick after you. You can also simply announce that you will be away and that your 24 hours can be skipped as a courtesy.
- If your turn has been skipped, you may at any time make your pick for that turn. However, you cannot pick a movie who has already been selected after your turn was skipped. If somebody else picked your movie then you are out of luck.
Judging
- When the draft is complete, we will have a tournament style playoff of all lists. ES members will be allowed to vote in each round of the playoffs.
- The draft participants will be seeded according to another run of the randomizer that created the draft order. Some people will likely end up with a bye in the first round based simply on the luck of the draw.
- You will have until a few days after the draft to make up any missed picks. Anybody with more missed selections than actual selections will not be eligible for the tournament.
Let me know if you have suggestions for rule additions, deletions or alterations.

Ok folks... sorry this was a little late. I was a bit busy.
Please read over the rules and ask questions. The draft order will be set tomorrow and hopefully the first player will be on the clock sometime tomorrow afternoon or so.
I decided on 12 rounds and I ruled out movies and one time TV events. Let me know if you disagree.
And if you want to play but aren't on the list... tell me now, we'd love to have you! :)
-
Thanks charlie.

Charlie your hard work is much appreciated.

Okee doke! The draft order has been set. The missus isn't feeling well today so I probably won't have updated pick lists for a bit, but I'm sure you all can figure it out. :)
Perspective is on the clock!!

nice...come on perspective!!

game's over, I win. :p

Oh jeez... I just realized I better start thinking about what I want to pick.

Oh jeez... I just realized I better start thinking about what I want to pick.
Yeah, it sort of caught me by surprise too.
-
I swear when I looked at this earlier today I was number two, not eight... did you re-randomize it or am I just crazy?
-
The order before was the order we signed up (http://www.entropysink.com/forums/index.php?topic=8541.msg91354#msg91354)... before I did any randomization. The order above is the draft order after I ran the randomizer three times until I liked what came out. (Just kidding in case it wasn't obvious... I ran it once.)
-
ah, gotcha.
-
ok guys, I win. WE should end this right now. There really is no point of picking anymore.

I feel fairly confident that most of my picks will be around when I make my choices so I'll take the one that is likely to tick off the most people here and happens to be a damn fine show even if it isn't exactly my #1.
House
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0412142/
-
Not enough time to figure out what I want, so I'll just take a popular show I liked:
Cheers (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083399/)
-
Never really liked Cheers and I'm with perspective on MASH. Should I start on episode 1?
-
Firefly
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/
-
Never really liked Cheers and I'm with perspective on MASH. Should I start on episode 1?
+1 on cheers.
You can start with any episode.
-
Think it's me now.
24.
-
Cheers was pretty good until Shelly Long left. Especially any of the older ones before Coach died.
-
It had hits and misses but it was a long enough run that I'd enjoy it on my island. Not my favorite show of all time, but it's so hard for me to figure out favorites so that's what I get.
-
I'd agree with M*A*S*H, it would have been in my top 5 if no one snatched it up.
Every episode is classic, although...
The first season was too silly (they tried to make it like the movie) and the last couple seasons were too serious and they got all self righteous and Alan Alda-y
Frank Ferret Face Burns > Winchester
Potter > Blake
Hunnicutt > Trapper
Cross Dressing Klinger > Post-RADAR Klinger
and I never got why they though Houlihan was so hot

Last season or so was as you said too preachy Alan Alda-y.
-
My turn I believe: The West Wing.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0200276/
Nice pick on firefly. Too bed it was so short!
-
I'm up.... first pick:
Star Trek: The Next Generation
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092455/
(http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg104/StarshipYamato/Star%20Trek/250px-TNGopeninglogo.png)

Not all of are going to know every one of these (guessing here). Lets keep up the IMDB links!
-
Lost: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411008/
and my Round 2 pick:
Entrourage: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387199/
-
Dangit Micha! That was my next. Well picked.
-
Sorry Kermi3 :D
my round 2 pic: MacGyver
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088559/
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a93/houseOFpayne/macgyver.jpg)
-
Probably a bit early for this one, but the show I often go to sleep to - my generation's MASH....
Scrubs (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0285403/)
-
Nice picks with MASH and MacGyver.
I like the addition of photos!
Lets all do that too!
Your turn Phil.
-
Probably a bit early for this one, but the show I often go to sleep to - my generation's MASH....
Scrubs (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0285403/)
Damn it!
-
Only 2 more episodes of Scrubs left, ever!
-
A short series but I really enjoyed it.
Band of Brothers
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0185906/
-
Only 2 more episodes of Scrubs left, ever!
They didn't revnew on abc???? Noooooooooo! I'm hoping for a spin off....
-
Babylon 5
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105946/
-
A short series but I really enjoyed it.
Band of Brothers
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0185906/
heard about it, but never seen it :(
As for scrubs, it is OK, but can get annoying.
-
heard about it, but never seen it
I never saw it on TV but Sally bought me the box set a couple of years ago. Well worth it.
-
BoB is the best mini-series I have ever seen.
-
Zach Braff and several others on Scrubs have said this was their last season no matter what from the beginning when ABC took it over so there really wasn't ever a chance for it to get picked up again. Too bad because this season was MUCH better than the last couple.

Double damn!! Not only was Scrubs pretty high on my list, but I don't get ABC so I haven't been able to watch this year's season.
-
Oh... and...
Seinfeld (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098904/)

What a shame, this season really has been great - maybe they'll change minds...Charlie, you can catch this season on Hulu and ABC.com...I think you can get all the episodes between the 2 sites. Use Hulu as much as you can though - ABC has a REALLY annoying commercial model that requires you to leave full screen mode and click to advance - really annoying when I'm watching from bed!
-
Yeah... I know the episodes are available online, but we've got a bunch of online-only shows we still need to watch and it's too much of a hassle. Thanks, though.

We got a wireless mouse just for this. :D
-
So do I - but it's still really annoying. Why the hell should I have to leave full screen and click something for your add? Just show it to me! I can't skip it, it's too short to go the bathroom.
-
Drat, I was getting excited because it looked like Seinfeld was going to fall in my lap, now I need to find another show, give me a minute.
-
Top Chef:

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH MAN! Kermi was mortally wounded by PJ.
Oh yeah. Um... me too. Best show ever and all that shit.
-
Mwuhahahahah ;)
-
I was planning on that ringer dropping to the 4th or 5th. That was the love that was my sleeper.
-
By the way, since it's Friday, axon has until 1:30pm central time Monday to make a pick.
I'm in no hurry, anyway. I still have to figure out what I want. :)
-
The Cosby Show

The Simpsons

good one...although I thought this would not go for another 2-3 rounds...
-
C'mon Perspective! Get her rolling!
-
Umm... perspective... you have to make 2 picks.
ah yeah. forgot about that. hmmm... I'll go with:
The Office
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386676/
(http://assets.hulu.com/shows/key_art_the_office.jpg)
-
All of my picks start with "The". Maybe I'll try and keep it as a theme :D
-
The Office
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386676/
*shakes fist* DAMN YOU!

Nice pick. Time to start thinking again...

ooops, didn't know it was my turn.
my pick is Myth Busters!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0383126/
(http://www.adamsavage.com/images/pix/mythbusters.jpg)
-
damn you, that was my next pick. shoot.
-
Nice pick. Wasn't in my list, though I should have considered it.
-
Hmmm tough choice between two that I want here as I'm pretty sure which ever one I don't choose will be long gone before it gets around to me again...
Battlestar Gallactica
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407362/

I haven't watched The Wire, but I believe Homicide was the "The Wire" of its time.
Actually... I just googled Homicide and Wire and it appears they have a ton in common (same creative teams, both in Baltimore, etc).

dirty jobs was ok for the first 2 or 3 seasons - now it's just meh

oh, modern marvel was on my list :shakesfist:
offtopic:: have you guys noticed that since RoD is banned or not posting (I don't know which anymore) the use of :rofl2: has gone down ten fold?

I took what was available on IMDB... they all sucked.

AFAIAA I'm the only non North American in the draft. I expect there will be a few of my picks that nobody will have heard of.
But not the only one who might be voting (if you care about that). Of course, it does give you a better shot of getting some of your personal favorites that we might not have heard of. I have not heard of Hustle, but it sounds cool.
-
Picket Fences
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103512/
(http://www.kfcplainfield.com/tv/picketf1.jpg)
Probably my favorite show of all time (although I haven't seen a lot of newer shows that might be better). It was quirky and weird which made it funny, and it tackled a lot of social/moral/political issues when I was in high school just becoming aware that such issues existed. A younger Don Cheadle joined as a prosecutor for a few years and was part of some of my favorite episodes. Oh, and Lauren Holly and Holly Marie Combs didn't hurt either.
-
not on my list but a good choice Charlie!

We tried that show... couldn't get past the pilot.
-
Like most shows the first season was a little hit and miss, but the last two have been freaking hilarious.
-
Yeah Obes I knew I needed to get that soon or you would snag it.
-
I was actually thinking about that for my last set of picks but I figured it would last another round.
-
Wonder Years
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094582/
-
dammit, I still haven't had a chance to really think up a list. Let's go with,
The King of Queens
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0165581/
(http://www.tvshowsondvd.net/graphics/news3/KingOfQueens_S8.jpg)
and
The X-files

great choice with the X Files! totally forgot about that one. Well done!
-
Stargate SG1
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118480/
I got into this show late, and a few years ago (when i was still in school) I watched the first 5 or 6 seasons in one month.
-
Monday Night Football
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065323/
(http://www.mtitv.com/images/samples/mnf_logo.jpg)
-
Knuck and pj...the next 2 on my list...
-
Monday Night Football
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065323/
Umm... wait. That's not really a "show". That's a sporting event.
-
game shows are OK - so I think sporting events should be ok as well.
-
I concur.
-
I say weakstyle.
-
Yeah... Monday Night Football counts. So do some other "shows" that aren't really shows. The Super Bowl wouldn't count, but MNF is fine.
I think it's a good pick. I have thought of some similar ones, but forgot about that.
-
South Park

bastard. I thought no one likes it but me. I wanted to take it this round but opted not to.....DAMMIT
-
There were three or four others I was debating between, then I saw it further down my list and thought, WTF? How can I not take this?
I'd be surprised if nobody else likes it. I honestly haven't watched more than a handful of episodes since the third season, but those first few seasons were enough.
And I had the South Park movie in the movie draft, so you should have known. :)
-
All In The Family
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066626/
-
I figured MNF would count since its broadcast as a regular show, was on the same station forever irregardless of what networks got the sunday games or super bowl, and has its own IMDB page.
Haven't watched South Park in forever...
-
South Park still in production?
-
South Park still in production?
Yeah, that's what I said last month when I saw a new episode, and two years ago when I heard about another new episode, and five years ago when I saw it was still running.

-
Used to watch it all the time as a kid.
Yeah. Me too. Not too long ago, I watched an episode. It did not hold up at all. Terrible. Godawful terrible. Not even Mary Ann could save it.
BTW everyone. MaryAnn or Ginger?

Well, I probably haven't watched an episode since I was 10, but that doesn't mean it doesn't stand out in my memory.
Mary Ann.

Frasier (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106004/)

Another brit show:
Waking The Dead.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0259733/
It's basically CSI meets Law and Order but all the cases are 'cold' (filed away under 'unsolved' for many years then some new evidence appears).
-
we have a show like that as well :) it is simply called "Cold Case" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0368479/ we watch it occasionally.

The Civil War

(http://www-tc.pbs.org/civilwar/pix/center_03.jpg)
This was an excellent mini-series by Ken Burns. I've actually liked all of his documentaries, but I think the subject matter here was the most interesting.
-
CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0193671/
-
Nice choice... I considered that but I've never seen more than a couple clips so I figured maybe that wasn't a good idea to pick something I hadn't really watched.
-
Thanks. That choice would provide years of interesting viewing.

ya know, Walter Cronkite's a fellow ham (http://www.arrl.org/fcc/fcclook.php3?name=Cronkite%2C+walter&city=&state=&zip=&optype=a&=Submit+Query)

Kermi's turn. Right?
-
Oh, and sorry about Futurama Kermi.
:dunno:

Yeah, Kermi is up.

kermi times out in a couple hours... his clock started at 2:22 pm central time yesterday. After that micah can go.

I'm here...

Sorry - hard day....hmmmm, lets go with:
Pardon The Interuption (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0307800/)
-
Wow... didn't think of that one. I kind of want a sports show to go with me but with SportsCenter gone I couldn't think of one. This works. :thumbsup:

It was that or Around the Horn, and I like the interviews on PTI

I hate Around the Horn and love PTI, so that wouldn't have been a very hard choice for me. ;)

-
That 70's was my next pick....
Need a ruling on if it's one show: The Superbowl
I'd say no, not one show. At least, that's why I didn't pick it.
-
I kinda say no too. Unlike "Monday Night Football" which was a weekly produced show that only ran on one network (untill last year) and had the NFL designate 1 game per week to be on that show... the Superbowl is more of a one time event (that just happens to occur every year)
but then again, thats just my "feeling" on it... if someone else thinks otherwise I don't really care. I don't really have any problem with it.
-
I've been verifying by looking on IMDB (which is pretty random I guess, but oh well). So far it seems to follow my instinct. Each Super Bowl is a separate page there, so each Super Bowl is a separate show.
The rules say that something should have multiple episodes to avoid movies, so an individual Super Bowl wouldn't be eligible either. I'd consider relaxing that rule if necessary, but I don't think it will be a big deal.
-
My thinking was along the lines of it as an annual series...despite the imdb differenes. Even if it airs on different networks, it's always produced by and owned by "The National Football League..."
-
Assuming other's agree on about the Superbowl - I'll go with:
Star Trek: DSN - I feel like I need one of the stinkin Trek's...
-
Think it's my turn now.
Match of the Day.

Hey. Since it Charlie sets these drafts up and goes through all the work to run them, I am in favor if waiting until he can participate again.
Folks?
-
I don't mind. I'm not going anywhere.
-
Well, I am next after Charlie. So unless somebody has an issue with it, I plan on going into a holding pattern until Char gets back in the game.

agreed.

Fine with me.

I'm good with that.

yup.

Wow. Stellar choice! I hadn't thought of it or I would have already put it up. A true classic that holds up well as the years pass.
-
i dunno who is up atm, but skip me until i come back. <3.

ober's next. Phil can make up the pick whenever he wants. :thumbsup:

20/20: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0124932/
Grew up watching that show every friday night with my parents.
Dukes of Hazzard: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078607/
-
micah has timed out. kermi is up.
Phil and micah can make up picks when they return. KnuckleBuckett, you are after kermi (unless Phil shows up and makes a pick before kermi does, which is somewhat unlikely given the time differences).
-
in light of Ober's "Dukes" pick, I am reminded of another favorite show from my early childhood (of watching reruns)
CHiPs
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075488/
(http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p187/RAJADUIT/2008/dvd_chips.jpg)
-
The A-Team, Dukes of Hazzard, CHiPs... all great choices from that era.
-
This has really slowed down lately. Must be the picks are getting harder.
-
My Name is Earl
-
That show just got cancelled if you can believe it.
-

Yeah... only a couple more rounds to go.
Knuckle, you're up. Phil can make up two picks whenever he wants.

Wonder Woman
(Season 1 Only)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074074/

Must be it had a following. TV execs are fucking morons that are about as out of touch with the population as our politicians.
Ahem...Meaning My Name is Earl.

The Real World
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103520/
(http://www.realitywanted.com/images/upload/realworld/RW-Logo.jpg)
I haven't watched it in years and I'm a bit nervous about what it has become, but the first few seasons were interesting enough to give me my reality fix. This was also one of first, if not the first reality show that led to all the crap that is on TV today.

That was on my original list. Got nixed late in the running.
-
Never heard of it... :dunno:
-
You might not recognize the name, but I'd be surprised if you didn't recognize the format:

nah, never seen it.
-
ditto
-
Hey! Quit holding up the show(s)!!!
-
i dunno who is up atm, but skip me until i come back. <3.
This means Perspective is up next, I believe.
-
Sorry I've been away for a little while, you know how it is.
My 2 picks are:
Question Time
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0267212/
Basically it's a political debate show. A panel of MPs, journalists and usually 1 celebrity sit in front of a live audience and debate questions put to them by said audience. Have watched it just about every week for the last couple of years.
Ugly Betty
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0805669/
Sally loves this and TBH it's actually quite good despite being very much a girl's program.
(Having to really scrape the bottom of the barrel for picks now!)

Still you Persp!

I missed that one in the movie draft, one of my all time favorites. The tv show was ok too.
-
FYI Ober. A guy from work and his son were in the Amazing Race.

You've been up since my Amazing Race pick. :thumbsup:
Technically you've timed out already and Phil is up.
So axon, KnuckleBuckett and Phil can all pick whenever they want. kermi3 can pick after Phil (or Monday morning, whichever comes first).
Almost there guys, just one and a half more rounds.
-
Mission Impossible
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060009/
-
The perfect show that doesnt require reruns and is great to watch while you work on your raft:
The Price is Right (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068120/)
-
Nice pick Kermi.
Bob Barker has got to be the single most loved game show host in TV history.
That said, what the hell is wrong with Drew? Few people have mastered showing just how much they hate their jobs as much as he has.
-
Oh snap! How did that one make it this long!?
-
I almost took it last round but decided to wait for reasons that will become clear later... Curses!!
-
Damn, I forgot about that one. That would've been a top 5 pick for me.

Buffy: critically acclaimed... no need to be ashamed.
Good Eats: good show.
TMNT: Raphael was the best.

When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1233514/
Narrated by award-winning actor Gary Sinise, WHEN WE LEFT EARTH is the incredible story of humankind's greatest adventure, as it happened, told by the people who were there. From the early quest of the Mercury program to put a man in space, to the historic moon landings, through the Soyuz link-up and the first un-tethered space walk by Bruce McCandless, this is how the space age came of age. The vivid HD series features vintage rushes and all the key onboards filmed by the astronauts themselves. The sequences are captured by cameras onboard the spaceships, enabling the series to tell the stories in a depth never seen before.
-
Final pick:
Wings (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098948/)
-
Sweet... we're all caught up, only six more picks to go. Phil is next, then KnuckleBuckett, and I'm in the hole.

nice!

Yeah. It is an older classic that still holds up and makes me and the wife laugh out loud.
-
Ok, I was going to pick the Price is Right last round, but I figured if somebody stole it I could take another Game Show that I actually like better but had a much shorter run (actually there were several separate runs, I'm taking the Ray Combs version I grew up on)...
The Family Feud

good pick. that's a classic for sure.
they always seemed to find the dumbest families though... :)
-
if it's my turn - skip me.
-
Well it's just you and Perspective left, so you both can take your last pick any time you want.
The Sopranos
Wow, great last round pickup. If I'd ever seen even one episode I might have taken it.
-
sopranos was supposed to be my last pick - damn you PJ. I have to pull out my alternate:
Twilight Zone http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052520/
-
Well, I need a game show and Jeopardy is already gone, so I'll go for:
Win Ben Stein's Money
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118515/
(http://tv.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/win_ben_steins_money.jpg)
-
AWESOME PICK!
-
I'd still love to see him and Alex Trebek go at it in a any sort of trivia game.
-
Wow.
That it? Draft finished?
We should do an honorable mention.
-
I think there still may be some people who haven't made their last pick but got skipped because they timed out. I haven't checked back through the thread though...
-
Draft is done!!
Yes, please feel free to list your honorable mentions... I'll start up the voting thread when I get a chance (and update the last few picks). Thanks everybody!
-
Ok people fess up, who here had picks they were afraid to admit they liked? American Idol? Friends? Dancing with the Stars?
I'll go first, I love watching the show So You Think You Can Dance. My wife also got me hooked on Americas Next Top Model :(
-
I liked Friends a lot and would have considered picking it if I didn't get Cheers and Seinfeld. I also watch Project Runway (I could watch any of the reality competition shows if you turned them on in front of me).
Here's a few others I considered:
In Living Color
Law & Order
Whose Line is it Anyway?
Chappelle's Show
The Mole
Nightline
Any game show (but especially Press Your Luck, Classic Concentration, $100,000 Pyramid, (Super) Password, Win, Lose or Draw, Lingo, and a few more that I can't remember).
-
Mock The Week
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0463827/
Another satirical comedy show
That looks like it might be similar to Best Week Ever (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0405520/), which is hilarious and I wish I thought of earlier.
-
No such admission. You got my Top Chef you bastard
-
Ooh, damn, forgot about the Soup:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421460/
How I Met Your Mother is pretty funny too, considered taking it. Another show I really like even though its only had a couple episodes so far is Better Off Ted. Whose Line Is It Anyways (American version) was pretty good for awhile but got stale when they started doing nothing but the silly games and made that god awful woman a regular.
-
Whose Line Is It Anyways (American version) was pretty good for awhile but got stale when they started doing nothing but the silly games and made that god awful woman a regular.
I actually preferred the British version (forgot about the American one). Drew Carey was not very good at being the host.
-
The British one was good as long as I could understand what the heck it was they were saying. Drew was pretty bad at first but I think he got better. But yeah Clive Anderson was definately better host.
-
Honorable mention: Nero Wolfe (Tim Hutton series)
Embarrassed? Nah. Hell I picked Wonder Woman.
-
yup, Americas Next Top Model - I watch that :eek:
-
Friends would have been a good pick actually, didn't think of that one.
How about "Family Matters" :)
-
How about "Family Matters" :)
Ahh... now we're getting to some that you should be embarrassed about. :p
NYPD Blue wasnn't picked was it? Melrose Place, Knight Rider and American Gladiators were all guilty pleasures. If I was stuck on the island as a 14 year old I would have picked Saved by the Bell first.
-
I came real closed to save by the bell... Gladiators wouldvr been a good pick
-
Saved by the bell crossed my mind too, but... meh.

guilty pleasure: Smallville http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0279600/

Geez, I can't believe I didn't think of looney tunes. I'd take that over many of the picks I ended up with.

By the way, I'll be out of town for a few days again, so it might another week or so before I can set up the voting. I'll get to it eventually.
