BBTW: TV!

I feel like I missed so very many favorite movies on my last Top 10. Sabrina! 10 Things I Hate About You! But the list for television is shorter and more selective, I think. I’m not a huge tv person. Honestly, we watch baseball every night and I’m okay with that. There are of course a few favorites, both old and new, so here they are in no particular order:

1.       Friends. Of course. I didn’t watch it when it first started, I think I got into it one of the last couple seasons. But I jumped in with both feet and I’m a full fledged Friend-ie.

2.       Big Bang Theory: So I’ve always loved BBT, but my husband thought Sheldon was annoying and didn’t get into it. And then it showed up in syndication and we were watching reruns and now we’re both hooked.

3.       New Girl: I love love love Zooey Dechanel. And the rest of the cast makes this show

4.       West Wing: I know I’m not getting through these episodes as fast as I could or should, but I love all of them. I’m somewhere in the third season and it’s already made it to the list.

5.       How I Met Your Mother: I admit it’s not so good anymore, but by now I’m so invested in the characters that it doesn’t matter that most of the time it’s not funny. I love these people. And there’s always syndication for the funny episodes.

6.       CSI: Another show that is just not as good anymore but I can’t give it up – I love it so much. Downhill since Warrick died. I loved Warrick. But Nick keeps me company.

7.       Buffy the Vampire Slayer: I watched this on Netflix when I was pregnant and then on maternity leave with Henry. Love. And yes, my favorite episode is the musical one.

8.       Saved By the Bell: I watched very little tv growing up, but I loved SBTB. I also loved California Dreamin’, which came on afterward, but since I can’t quote from it or remember any specific episodes it doesn’t make the list.

9.       Downton Abbey: I am not a fan of period pieces, but I cannot get enough of this show. Come on, season four!

10.   Chuck: Love.

Honorable Mentions: Fringe, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Lie To Me, Criminal Minds,Ally McBeal and several other short-run shows that realized I loved them and got canceled. What else did I miss?

Bring Back the Words: brainchild of the lovely Ginger.
