Yet another meme from the house of
kightp, this one concerning TV shows:
Bold means "tried to never miss an episode"
Italic means "watched when one noticed it was on, but wasn't bummed if it was missed"
Strikeout means "never watched"
Regular Text means "watched at least one episode but never regularly"
25. Freaks and Geeks (I would've preferred more geek and less freak.)
24. Absolutely Fabulous
23. Forever Knight
22. H. R. Pufnstuf
21. Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman
20. Twin Peaks (Still an all-time favourite, and when is season 2 going to come out on DVD?)
19. Dark Shadows
18. Doctor Who (Though I've probably seen only a handful anywhere near their original airing date, I've seen most of the Third through Seventh Doctors courtesy of PBS.)
17. The Avengers (Never impressed me much, but a former roommate would watch it.)
16. My So-called Life
15. Quantum Leap
14. Beauty And The Beast
13. Babylon 5
12. Family Guy (Recommended by some people, but didn't click with me.)
11. Mystery Science Theatre 3000
10. Pee Wee's Playhouse (Gag...)
9. Xena: Warrior Princess (I may have seen bits and pieces, but nowhere near a full episode.)
8. The Twilight Zone (Not to the best of my recollection...though I remember "The Outer Limits".)
7. The Prisoner
6. The Simpsons (My wife doesn't like it that much, and I don't feel like I can watch it with the kids just yet...)
5. Monty Python's Flying Circus
4. Farscape
3. Buffy The Vampire Slayer (See below. Still working on it through DVD.)
2. The X-Files (I've watched one episode all the way through, and tried two or three others but gave up before the end.)
1. Star Trek (Too unspecific. I've seen all of TOS, most of TNG, most of Voyager except Season 2, half a dozen episodes from the beginning of DS9, and about the same from Enterprise.)
I also agree with
kightp that South Park is wrongly excluded. And what about Red Dwarf? Or anything a bit more mainstream, like Friends?

I think the last season or two of "Friends" has deprogrammed me all on its own.
