Take it as a sign then. You don't watch enough TV shows!

 

The only so far I feel like I'd be interested in is Daria! Maybe Weeds but MLP is such a WHY.

You should also start watching Castle. Will keep you busy for a few months (it has 100-odd 40-minute episodes to-date). Or a few days if you're Silas.

Weeds is SOOOOOOO good. There are times when you actively hate MLP's character so if you don't like her that's a bit of a bonus!

 

I second the Castle recommendation. It's very light fun. Sure there is drama and sad stuff and heavier moments but for the most part it's very funny in an upbeat way. Its one of those shows that will make you smile after a crappy day.

 

 

Pav, I is employed now so my mad skillz are somewhat diminished by working and a social life. Although I'm piss broke now and I don't get paid for WEEKS and even then all that is either going on flights, hotel or into Aussie $$$ so there is hope for us yet!

I know where Popular finished as I did a comment for it mwahaha

 

It should be TOP 20 actually but alas it's never ever going to happen :(

Absolutely ridiculous it's only 107th. Iconic show about a serial killer with morals. I can't imagine TV without Dexter to be honest and it's so sad to see it end. but we have one month left - let's leave the tears for later. JONJO SISTA SUICIDE PACK STILL AWN?

Not something I've ever watched but it stars a man dressed as a woman and it looks dreadful. The fact that six people awarded it -1 says it all. Still, there are a few fans out there for it to still end up this high and it's been on arena tours so there must be some hidden appeal.

 

105th ☆ Modern Family ☆ 90pts

(Favourite character: Gloria)

A ratings winner in the States and critically acclaimed, sweeping the Emmys year on year, this comedy about a non-traditional family (gay couple with adopted Vietnamese daughter, Colombian housewife with a much older husband) living in LA and presented in mockumentary style was brilliant for the first two seasons. I gave up during season four as the adult characters felt more annoying and over the top but Gloria, rightfully voted as the favourite character, remains a bit of a saving grace.

I quite like Mrs Browns Boys :ph34r:

 

Gloria is the best thing about Modern Family alongside Claire's facial expressions

Mrs Brown :wub: always makes me laugh, but I can see why people don't find it appealing, it's pretty marmite.

OPEN THE FECKIN' DOOR YA FECKIN' SHITE YA FECK FECK FECK FECK I'M IN FECKIN' DRAG FECK FECK FECK

 

hilarious

Kinda getting into Castle now, mainly because Detective Ryan is lush.

I watched a few minutes of Mrs Brown's Boys on Youtube, and I watched enough to get the STENCH of banal, lowest-common-denominator comedy just filtering out of the screen. Sorry to any fans of it but that is awful. Didn't crack one smile during those minutes, every fibre of my being was telling me to click off.

 

Modern Family doesn't seem THAT great from what little I've seen but there's a small bit of potential there.

SCREW THAT! We should go "all Dexter" on whoever didn't vote for it... the tricky part is, who to choose first? Who will be the one to fall victim to the table first? It's actually despicable that that terrible, TERRIBLE 'Mrs Brown's Boys' beat it :\ WHAT?!

 

UGH.

 

(P.s. Am I being blind and missed it or is HIMYM yet to appear?! :o)

Watch the Christmas special and you'll be reaching for a gun within 30 seconds.

104th ☆ Nurse Jackie ☆ 91pts

Airing on Showtime this dark comedy takes place in an American Hospital, don't think Scrubs because this one is actually funny. Revolving around Jackie Peyton, a Nurse addicted to pain killers. The show has received 20 Emmy nominations, resulting in two wins, and 3 Golden Globe nominations.

 

There's not really much to say about this other than if you're a fan of good comedy and/or Weeds you'll love this. I need to catch up though as I'm like two seasons behind :drama:

 

Random fact, a remake called 'Charlie' started airing earlier this year in The Netherlands!

This Jersey Shore spin-off set in the Newcastle area of England is both amazing and quite filthy (source: Rob). Despite only starting a little over two years ago, a 7th series is due on the air soon as it continues to grow in viewers (with the latest series being the first to average over one million viewers). Stars of the show include Gary "Gaz" Beadle and Charlotte, a fun lass who became the latest winner of Celebrity Big Brother last night!

 

102nd ☆ Community ☆ 92pts

Let's forget season 4 ever happened okay? Absolutely INCREDIBLE show otherwise. Watched it 2 times from beginning to end myself. Gets funnier actually.

Anyone who doesn't think this is funny should log off and check themselves into a loony bin because BITCH YOU BE f***ING GODDAMN CRAZY! Episode 102 already has this SHOW-DEFINING moment.
So yeah all the haters get back to watching your Z-list soap operas ("CARLOS I AM PREGNANT WITH YOUR 2ND COUSIN'S DAUGHTER'S AUNT'S BROTHER'S CHILD!" *gasp*) and don't spread your BAD TASTE INFECTION here.

101st ☆ The Sarah Jane Adventures ☆ 93pts

(Favourite character: Sarah Jane)

 

http://www.tvequals.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sarahjaneadventures-550x246.jpg

 

:ne:

 

1 January 2007 – 18 October 2011 on CBBC

 

The Sarah Jane Adventures was a kids show focusing on a Doctor Who companion called Sarah Jane Smith from the 70s. Sarah, her adopted son and his best friends go around saving the world from monsters. Sadly the show was forced to end after the death of Elisabeth Sladen, who played Sarah, in April 2011. Surprisingly mature for a kids show (all according to Joseph).

 

Now we can move onto the top 100 where every show managed more than 100 points too. :D Which ABC shows are soon to fall? Just how high will How I Met Your Mother get? And just how popular is Popular? :o

Mrs Brown is very hit and miss for me :lol: I can see why people wouldn't like it, and I find that the episode is either hilarious or absolutely f***ing awful.

 

Geordie Shore :wub: Only care for those two since I last commented.
