top 10 television series

I remember watching Buffy as a kid and thought it was Charmed but whatevz floats your boats

 

[no country for old wainds]

among other things it contains a really numb, distressing episode revolving around a character's death, a brutal rape of the main character by possibly the show's most adored male character, an episode that implied the whole show was just the wish fulfillment hallucination of the actually mentally ill buffy, a genuinely surreal dream episode mythologising the characters and their psychology, a silent ep and a musical ep both of which won awards for their ingenuity, etc. it took a lot of risks many of which alienated doting fans, and some of the episodes were stuffed full of subtextual meaning. it was a very thoughtful show, in other words, not to mention frequently hilarious and reviving the spirit of a lot of vintage horror-action-comedy sources. not denying it was a little uneven though.

charmed is pretty shite from what i remember.

I honestly thought you were talking about Berserk until the word buffy. maybe I should give buffy another chance.

 

[CiG]

I love Berserk.

what is jojo's bizarre adventure

 

[Vegard Pompey]

It's a macho, over-the-top action anime and I'm really struggling to adequately describe it more specifically than that. If you're at all interested watch the first episode, all of its strengths are immediately apparent and you will probably like it instantly or not at all. The whole first arc is pretty much a 10/10 for me.

Unrelated but have you seen Rick and Morty? I'd be very surprised if you didn't like it.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i've seen a bit yeah, seems really good. i love a lot of adultswim stuff actually.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Yeah, Rick and Morty is great.

 

[CiG]

If you like Fist Of The North Star you'll like Berserk.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Dragonball Z unfuckingcut is the only anime I give a shit about.

 

[CiG]

Fist Of The North Star shits all over Dragon Ball Z.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

I have to make a list... If I could all I'd do would be to watch tv and listen to music.

I had to ask has anyone checked out the new X-files yet?

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Yeah, Scully gets nude or something and it's amazing. I haven't seen it yet but I saw an awesome real gif and damn near jerked off to it...

3) Jerry Springer

 

[Vilden]

The latest episode was hilarious.

 

[unknown]

The latest episode was hilarious.

It is. I was cracking up

 

[The Butt]

1 - Star Trek in all its forms (TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT... even the worst of the series solidly takes the spot at number 1 for me)
2 - Trailer Park Boys
3 - Mantracker (first six seasons are easily the best of any "reality" show ever)
4 - Beavis and Butthead
5 - First two seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh (actually a really entertaining show just for the cheese factor, but it has a lot of nostalgia)
6 - First two seasons of Pokemon (same as above)
7 - Seinfeld
8 - First seven or so seasons of The Office (US)
9 - Workaholics
10 - King of the Hill

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

American Dad has some real funny episodes. Might just be the best thing Macfarlane has done.

 

[CiG]

American Dad didn't do shit for me, but at least it isn't The Cleveland Show.

Also dude, Mantracker was killer. Bear Grylls though.
Actually, anything involving Gordon Ramsay is the best reality show ever.
