Re: Favorite Shows
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.

Re: Favorite Shows
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!

Re: Favorite Shows
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.

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

I forgot to mention "Moonlighting" when Bruce Willis got his start; I always thought he was HOT!
