Okay so just talk and give reasons

6.Stargate SG-1-Stargate Alantis was great to, but SG1 was the best Stargate and best TV SciFi series since I rather not watch Star Wars as a cartoon. Special effects were freaken awsome for a tv series and the story was enjoyable and cool. Also its the only thing on the Sci Fi channel besides Stargate Alantis and Ghost Hunters so yeah.



5.Combat Zone-On the military channel this talked about real battles from Iraq to WWIIInchon and Vietnam. Some of the best Recreations on a TV budget. With great interviws and fotage.



4.Roseanne-I just love that series. Gave us 8 good seasons and a good one that had the series finally (which I don't really view as actually being part of the series) that runied that season. But it was one of the more realistic shows compared to other comedys. It was enjoyabe and since I think sarcasm is the greatest invention of all time, then yeah its awsome. Only one comedy is better, the #2.



3.M.A.S.H-Greastest comedy of all time. Had great charaters that I enjoyed watching. While it did have comical romance when it came to the actual Korean War they tried not to romacnize that. Acting was awsome. The music was great. And it was able to go from comedey to sad drama on a dime without being melodramatic. Some of the episodes were great, llike the time that crappy Chinese pilot couldnt bomb a ammo depot so they took bets on how far off the bomb would land. 11 seasons I believe and everyone was great.



2.Jerich
First let me ghet out of the way how I feel about CBS and them canceling the best tv show of all time for noe reason
&%&*$^$* Youb &*$^&$*$&Y You can &$%*&^& your dads and moms &%&% u %*&%*% how &%*%&inhg dare you cancel an amazing show you ^*&(^&^ %^*%^$($^ $*^$*$(

Okay onto the show. It started slow and mysteriously but good. A myster a conspiracy and you always had alot of the intelligence from scenes with Hawkins but you now theres always something that you dont now. Action and acting were top notch and cliffhanger letf you wanting more.
Then....
It ended
Then there was a sh!tload of nuts sent to CBS
Then Season 2, more political then survival it revealed alot of details and in 7 episodes (less than half a season but CBS thought they were being nice %$#@ing @ssholes) they made a great series.
And the finale. Well I got alot of Texas in my blood and that dogfighting scene (however short) is my faveorite of the series



Drum
Roll
Please
!

NUMBER 1 IS....
1.BAND OF BROTHERS-There is just so many good things about this miniseries. he charater, the sound, the music. Even comedey from time to time. It is hands down the best recreation of war the greatest recreation of World War II! Ever! The music was very fitting especially the opening theme. You got to understand how the War was like through the eyes of Easy Company. You heard the stories. You head the mortars. The acting is amazing and you'll love and be saddened ith every episode. Everything about it is 10 out of 10. Its hands down the best War Series of all time.

Battlestar Galactica hands down... best show i've ever watched... amazing storyline, awesome special effects, it just keeps you hooked and it's MADE IN CANADA!!!

Heroes, a very original idea, with pretty addicting storyline that keeps you coming back... one of the only shows i've followed religiously

Dexter (watching now) unique in its way, told in a comical manner and interesting, and gruesome at parts... you can call it a comical CSI Miami

Top Gear!!! (the UK version... not the wannabe aussie or russian versions)
Honestly, if you love cars, or anything to do with cars... or are a man who likes really manly stuff... you can't miss this... the TG trio's absolutely HILARIOUS and come up with ALL those ridiculous challenges and keeps you laughing for hours

Band of Brothers is pretty awesome too I have to admit... although i never finished the series... but the 4 episodes i watched were pretty awesome

i don't watch too much TV shows, but these top 4 are the only ones that kept me hooked... and band of brothers, didn't bother getting the hands on them... maybe when i have the time

Im going to go over the 5 here FYI

Flash Point - Canadian Show about a fictional SRU unit, basically a SWAT team, each episode is a different situation they are put up against. Its just a really good show, and it actually somewhat makes you feel for all the characters (even the 'bad guys' as they are generally people put into bad positions)

Band of Brothers - Such an awesome show, favorite episodes have to be either Carentan, or the 2 that happen in Bastogne(sp?)(Battle of the Bulge, Ardennes Offensive)-did you know that those 2 episodes were done in a warehouse! Not even in a forest! They freaking made a forest to film it!

24 - Just a good show, really predictable, but its still fun to watch

Heroes - Awesome Show - still need to finish watching the last season though

Lost - Just started watching this show at the beginning of June and am already on the 4th Season. Its is actually really good despite what you may have heard. It is confusing at times, but the story is really good and a lot of the characters are actually pretty good actors/ actresses. The head 'other' (i wont say his name to not spoil it for anyone who decides to watch it) is so good, as you feel bad for him/ understand why he's doing what he is doing, but at the same time he is so evil and manipulative - its great!

Jericho - Best TV show ever created. About a small town in the US (Jericho) that is isolated after a very large scale nuclear attack on US Soil. Basically the show revolves around how they stay alive while dealing with many problems like lack of power (electricity), food, and another close by town that was hit much harder. It only ran for a full season and a very short second season (which only happened because fans protested, as the first season ends with such a huge cliff hanger, so they made a short second season (8 episodes) to close off the story) Its a must see! The characters are so good - although they are not big name actors - by the end when certain characters die its so sad as you actually feel for them. Also the story is done in such a way that it actually seems plausible(to some manner) and the way the town deals with everything is realistic.

But watch Flashpoint and Jericho! They are superb.

@ Scorch, Little Britain is hillarious, ive only watched a couple of episodes but its so funny.

And myth busters is such a good show! Its just cool to see what they try out and to see what actually is real and what isnt. Rocket Sled Cooliest Myth! You can see the sled breach the sound barrier

Haha! Finally other people who watched the show! No one i know other then my bro and dad watched the show.

I found the second season to be slightly not as good as the first, but it was still really good. By chance have you seen the alternate ending? I think it was actually better then the actual ending, but it would have only worked if the show wasnt canceled. But like you said it defiantly had one of the greatest endings ever, especially the 1st season ending.

From these you may select for yourself and your country what to imitate, and also what, as being mischievous in its inception and disastrous in its issues, you are to avoid.

24 - Fantastic. Enough said!

Spooks - Kinda like the above, but focusing on the British Security Services.

Smallville - I am a massive comic book (and Superman) fan, and am not ashamed to admit that i watch this.

Scrubs - The last few years have not been quite as funny, but still a good one for a few laughs.

House/ The Wire - Both are equally brilliant, and i'm torn between them, hence why i listed both.

Honouranle mentions
The Wire
Dexter
Psych
Family Guy
