I'm an X-o-phile, too.

MST3K still rocks, even thought they've whittled it down to only about 10 episodes that they show over and over.

Monty Python

I can't believe Babylon 5 has only gotten one mention; I think it's the best show ever made!

And if I could find Daria I'd still be watching. Even in re-run, she' da bomb! Truthfully now, did any of you other guys ever have a crush on her?

I'm going to hop upon my soapbox for Sports Night. Brilliany writing, sharp cast...nothing beats it, as far as I'm concerned.

yes, yes, I think we're all in agreement: John Rhys Davies as Arturo was the best part of Sliders.

All british comedy shows. I´m surprised no one has mentioned any of them before.

I have always liked british shows, they are witty and I´m often surprised when watching them. American shows can be funny, but I don´t get the feeling they are very original. Too often I know what´s going to happen. Swedish "comedy" shows are an abomination.

Jeff is just so damn funny

Monty Pythons Flying circus, not as good as the films but still very funny.

and my favourite Fawlty Towers John Cleese in one of the funniest TV series ever made but they made very few episodes definately worth watching.
