    Which is your? For me it would have to be a tie between M.A.S.H and The Simpsons. M.A.S.H must have had the best mix between drama, political satire and humour ever seen and the actors were magnificient. The last episode of the series is forever etched into my memory. The Simpsons is just truly marvelous, I laugh myself silly almost once per episode and I am not a man to laugh easily. My only complaint about the series is that it sometimes is a bit tame in its social criticque, I would have wished to be a bit sharper but you cant get it all. All in all it is a magnificient series who is still going strong.
    I have to mention two swedish series as honourary runner ups but who failed due to only one season a piece and that they not known outside of Sweden. NileCity and Percy Tårar, two magnificient series by the same gang of comedians that perfected the art of ironic humour.

    Either Family Guy, or Futurama. Both are so darn stupid that they are funny as hell!

    I don't watch much TV (I decided to get a high speed internet connection rather than Cable Television) but if I see the Simpsons on I'll watch that show.

    The Simpsons is one of the best shows ever made. I just can't get enough of it.

    I despise the Simpsons. My favorite television program has been titled 'Arthur', a close runner-up however, would be 'Seinfield'.

    My all-time fabvourite? It HAS to be Babylon 5.

    Of all the 110 episodes, I missed no more than five, and none by my own volition. I missed them for reasons such as faulty receptioon, being on another continent and electricity going out.

    I have about 95 episodes taped, and I bought all the movies when they came out on video :)

    This show is simply so utterly perfect that... that... that... I love it beyond words. The best ever.

    Crusade was crap.

    Narns rock... I used to claim that I was in reality a narn.... :p ....

    I actually wrote a B5 fan fic for a school paper once... I didn't know it was fan fic when I did it, though....

    Love the show to pieces....

    The more known ones would be Southpark and Conan O'brien. Some sci-fi series have been pretty good as well. But I guess the best ever goes to the only Finnish show I'd ever grant over 6 points (in a 1-10 scale, where this one actually gets 9 or 10), which is Uutisvuoto. Newsleak in English. A show where there are 2 teams basically "competing" with each other with 1 judge sitting in between. It's a quiz show consering all of the current political events inlands and out in the world, where your answer has to be put in the funnies form possible. Basically the answer is right when you just mention wether it's yes or no or what the exact name is... but the deduction that led you to that answer is completely hypothetical. Both of the teams have Finlands perhaps best writers as the 1:st members every show so they do keep the thing running, being experienced in the show and highly articulately skilled. A hilarious show, too bad it only comes once a week.

    How could I forget Babylon 5? I was all concentrated on comedy series that I forgot that one. Sadly I have missed more or less half the series but the last three seasons were superb and it is the only series which I have actually followed that had a storyline from episode to episode.

    Anamaniacs was a favorite ten years ago. Now it's mainly Simpsons. Malcolm in the Middle is also hilarious.
