- Green Wing
- Blackadder
- Clone High
- Puella Magi Madoka Magica
- Cowboy Bebop
- Flight of the Conchords
- Inside No. 9
- The Wire
- Atlanta
Only finished shows considered, as a poor ending can ruin a show.
Star trek the next generation and deep space nine Battlestar Galactica The Orville
Yes, I’m a sci-fi nerd
Also “the good place”, it’s awesome
Farscape by a long shot.
Columbo
Rockford Files
Newhart
Cartoon : Dungeons & Dragons
Firefly and Futurama
I’ll forever be obsessed with Family Guy
It’s always sunny in Philadelphia
Malcolm in the middle
Community
Oh I forgot Malcom in the Middle. +1 to that.
For a recent anime, Delicious in Dungeon is excellent!
Bob’s Burgers hands down. It’s just constantly showcases the wholesomeness I want to see in the world.
It shows a constantly imperfect world, and family, friends, and community standing together to survive it.
I could write a thesis, but I’m crying thinking about that Christmas episode now, you know the one.
Ghost In The Shell, Haibane Renmei, and Gurren Lagann share the #1 spot for animated
Psych takes 1st place for live action
This is hard.
-
Avatar: The Last Airbender + The Legend of Korra together. Don’t even get me started (actually please do).
-
Pantheon. Dense, proper sci fi, criminally and tragically suppressed IRL. Watch it, right now.
-
I am really loving Severance so far.
-
Arcane is up there, maybe as most artistic.
-
Star Wars: Andor. Not a huge Star Wars fan, but it’s so good, and grounded. It has everything.
I have a lot of “secondary” favorites I am excluding here, like The Expanse, Person of Interest, Fringe, The Americans, Narcos, Mythbusters, and such for various reasons, but are still amazing.
+1 for Avatar. Such a phenomenal cast of characters and world building. Korra got really weird but I still appreciate it.
I love LoK, honestly more than ATLA, for many reasons. Along those lines, I was more into ATLA for Zuko than the Gaang.

The Good Place. Perfect show, 10/10
Futurama will always hold a special place in my heart
- Twilight Zone
- MASH
- Malcolm in the Middle
Easily Star Trek: The Next Generation. It’s mystery, sci-fi, action, drama, and period pieces (holo deck episodes). It has a bit of everything. Plus it’s a hopeful vision of the future.
