HR Puffinstuff
Shields & Yarnell
Ark II
Black Adder
Tails of the Gold Monkey

And damn Spielberg for buying Dr. Who when Sylvester McCoy was just coming into his own as the best thing since Tom Baker.

Pushing Daisies.

Dead Like Me.

Carnivalé (easily the best thing on TV ever).

Riget (Danish TV series, remade as Kingdom Hospital I hear - two principal cast members had the gall to die before the series was finished :-(, next best thing on TV ever).

One I wish hadn't been canceled, and most probably won't recall it, was Brisco County JR.

With a groovy bunch like this, you can bet we're not the only two to know it. :D

A friend of mine celebrates Ash Wednesday by inviting people over to watch Evil Dead 2 & Army of Darkness.

I liked that show, but I'm still in shock that someone knew what Tales of the Gold Monkey was. In a box somewhere I have every episode on VHS.

Also, in another Fuck Fox moment: The Tick the Animated series was the best show on television ever.

Clowns and eerie carnivals scare the blue jesus out of me. So glad Carnivale is gone.

I loved Tales of the Gold Monkey as a kid!

Jack of All Trades was another Bruce Campbell fun fest.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles was excellent, another fuck Fox moment.

Dead Like Me was a great show, the movie they made later on sucked though.

I would of liked to of seen one more season of Rome.

Okay, Rob, just because Chig is dealing with natural disasters right now doesn't mean you can disregard basic English *completely*. ;)

Can't hardly say enough good things about the Tick, animated or live action. I'm laughing now thinking about the Terror! (Slow start for Warburton, but I think the last few were showing real promise.)
Haven't seen Jack or Sarah.
My wife loves Dead but I lost interest after they stopped inventing crazy deaths.
Rome was brilliant- made me believe that seeing Dune done well was possible.

Does anyone think the sitcom is starting to go the way of the variety show?

I would've said that but then I thought about it and most sit-coms that have ever been on the air were shit. There are probably more good ones on now than there have ever been at any given time. Which is to say about 2-3.

That's because it's not English, It's 'Merican! This is America and we don't speak that Queen's English crap! ;)
