I honestly think that what we watch on TV says a lot about our personalities (I know, some people don't watch TV). So, I want to know: what are your fave shows, past and present?
I'll start (not necessarily in order):
Arrested Development (probably the funniest show I've seen....EVER)
Quantum Leap
Benny Hill
Monty Python's Flying Circus
Kids In The Hall
Little Britain
Twilight Zone
Twin Peaks (season 1)
The X-files (season 1 and 2)
Reno 911 (especially the first few seasons)
Dr. Who (both runs)
Hitchcock Presents
The Tick (not the animated one, the one with Patrick Warburton)
Archer
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
The League
Psych
The Walking Dead (Shane is sexy as a muther...)
Greg the Bunny (IFC)
The First 48
Seasons 1-12 of South Park (probably one of the best commentaries against the idiocy of modern society I can recall)
Mystery Science Theater 3000
I know I am forgetting some, especially British shows (I have a Brit's sense of humor).
Okay, your turns!

I do not watch so-called "reality" shows, mostly becasue they are not real. An element of unreality in inherrent in the process of filming.
