Does anyone else think that some of the more newer (2 or 3) Simpsons episodes are lacking? The halloween episode was a let down for me. I still like the series though.
Uh, since I don´t have a tv I have to base on the few occations I see tv and what I can download from the net:
Futurama

Why people still like Simpsons but don´t mention Futurama I don´t understand. Last time I laughed watching Simpsons was the "Bart tries to jump over grand canyon on skateboard" and that was only the last three minutes of that show. And that was back in the beginning of the 90´s
After watching Babylon 5 all the way through for the 5th time Sci-Fi channel's gotten me hooked on Farscape which airs conveniently afterwards. And it grows a heavier story arc as the show progresses...
Also of note:
* West Wing
* Seinfeld
* Red Dwarf
And yes I liked Sports Night, even though it was only on for 2 seasons...
Thought so. Mind you, I think I'm the only person who found Sports Night funny. It really didn't need that sometime laughter track.</strong><hr></blockquote>
1. Babylon 5 (1st to half way through the 3rd season)
2. This hour has 22 minutes (before Mercer quit, Mercer was the man. Who else would have the balls to go up to Bush talking about Prime Minister Putine from Canada only to have Bush respond by saying "Im sure that Mr. Poutine has the best intrests of his country at heart". Supposedly Bush thought that Canada was out ot get him after that, Mercer responded by saying "he's right")
3. The Simpsons
4. Junkyard Wars (HIGHLY original)
5. The original Animated Tick (not this new POS from Fox)
if you count miniseries make these 1&2 and bump the rest down:

Frasier (I'm a psychology grad student)
The Simpsons (social psychology out the wazzo)
Friends (cheap, mindless laughter)
and my current fave:
Malcolm in the Middle. Great show if you've never seen it. Every one of the cast can act and act well. Makes me look forward to Sunday nights.
Simpsons
Real World (Lori is fine)
Sportscenter
Star Trek Next Generation
Deep Space 9
Voyager
Enterprise
Statement of Denial: I am not a Trekkie.

Mary Tyler Moore (still hilarious after 25 years)
