I like quite a few of those older ones as well. Haven't watched too many of the newer ones and don't get the English ones.

Not much of a TV-person. I loathe "Friends."

The shows I like are generally cartoons.

I have never been a fan of "Friends", either, I thought I was the only one!

As for cartoons, how could I have forgotten to mention "Bugs Bunny"?

Angry Beavers

How could I have forgotten M*A*S*H and Married ... with Children.

Too bad they don't air the latter here. Because it is quite applicable to South Africa; especially when dealing with the less honest side of life (monopolist corportations, organized crime and government agencies).

The impossible will always happen. And you will feel cursed.

Currently watching Arrested Development. Heroes has potential, but some episodes are as quick as your average Dragonball Z fight episode.

arrested development was a great show.
