The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
For those of you who are new to countdown threads, here's how it works!
Each of you will submit to me, via PM, your favorite television shows of all time (top 15 I think is best)...I want to make it a longer list so we get some good ones in there Once I have the lists, I will give each a point value, 15 points for #1, 14 points for #2 and so on. I will then tabulate which shows got how many points based on both appearance in lists and placement in lists (i.e. #1 - 15) and come up with a top 20 (maybe 25) countdown! Its actually pretty fun, so play along!
Feel free to post your lists in here, but I will only count the ones which I receive via PM. I will start the countdown in about a week, or longer depending on when I get a bunch of lists. Please make sure to post something in this thread too so people realize y'all are paying attention!
So TV Watchers................let's get it on

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
I submitted my list, although I am filled with doubts about it. There are a lot of great shows I had to leave out.

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
I've got some lists going, spread the word.
This is going to be a good list because as much as I love lost, its not just all lost, some other show, lost, ad nauseum

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
I sent in 15 - it was DIFFICULT. to narrow things down. I'm happy to see our hostess will entertain another 10 choices.
I on purpose did not put LOST on my list. We all love it, it's a given. I wanted to point out other shows that have helped me to get to the point of loving LOST. Some of the shows are pretty much unheard of -some are just forgotten.

This was my original list:
1~ LOST
2~ ST: TNG
3~ Dexter
4~ SFU
5~ Big Love
6~ Sopranos
7~ Person of Interest (could go higher, this is now)
8~ My So Called Life
9~ Firefly
10~Twilight Zone
11~ Dr Who
12~Twin Peaks
13~Breaking Bad (could go higher, just starting)
14~MST3K (I miss this every Sunday AM)
15~ Frasier

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
Thank you reywas! Also, I'm not sure how this works but shouldn't The Wire be on the list of top ten shows? Best show I've ever seen.

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
Ok, I sent mine in with The Wire at the top followed by LOST. I also included Friday Night Lights and Homeland and Law and Order and several HBO shows, plus my two daily faves The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (the only way to get the news as far as I'm concerned! I had others such as House, Modern Family and Parks and Recreation etc. Should be a fun game.

Re: The Syndicate's Favorite TV Shows OF ALL TIME
I don't see any lists and I am pretty sure it is well past May 3rd. Granted, I've been pretty sleep deprived the last 7 months.
