Some people think the first series was the best one, with great skits on medieval shakesperian themes, and the second one a sharp fall in standards with lots of fart jokes and mugging to camera… Edmund was the idiot in that one, Baldrick the clever one.
We are in the minority, but we do exist.
Enterprise
Red Dwarf
Daria
Futurama
TNG

and that weird middle-of-the-night PBS history show, that had the guy with the strange enunciation
Cupid
Joan of Arcadia
Pearl
Dweebs
Father Ted
Anything but Love
Swamp Thing (yeah, yeah–guilty pleasure. Shup. 
)
Daria
I forgot Daria - that was indeed a great show (and one you can’t get on DVD).
Firefly
Max Headroom
Freaks and Geeks
Undeclared
Seinfeld. Yeah they went out on top (well mostly), but I think there were still a lot of spongeworthys" and “master of my domains” left.
Firefly (of course)
Gargoyles (Although I’m hoping that the current comic book format will let them push the story even farther than they did in the show.)
Brimstone
The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.
The Dresden Files (Yeah, the show was very different from the books, but I liked it anyway. Especially Terrence Mann as Bob.)
I heard that Estelle Getty’s Alzheimer’s has gotten to the point where her brain is pretty much gone. That’s just sad.
Two Guys and a Girl imeaditly jumped to mind and every time I see Ryan Reynolds I think of how good it could have been.
As for shows that I wish were still on but had a good life; Rockford Files and Mavrick both of which hold up quite well in reruns (Ok maybe I’m a James Garner fan) and Cheers.
I almost forgot about The Electric Company.
I am glad we have a few votes for Daria, no DVD. :mad:
The Paper Chase, no DVD. :mad:
Damn Lionsgate, damn SciFi, and damn Bonnie and her wrestling idiocy.
I’m just sayin’!
How could I forget Bagpuss! Only 13 episodes, I’m sure we could have had another short run.
Also, Millennium.
Mainly just Fraiser. Firefly’s a close second.
I’m sure it could be done, but sometimes these things are best left alone - look at the terrible mess they made of re-launching Paddington Bear (as an ordinary cartoon, with terrible voice work).
Wow, three pages and nobody has mentioned Police Squad!. There were only 6 episodes made - each one a gem of laff-your-ass-off. The three movies based on it actually exceed the entire TV series in running time. Name one other series of which that is true!
The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
