eTV Reviewer - October 2006

What's the best TV show EVER?

October 25th 2006 23:17
Now this is a tough question, and really it is all relative because everyone likes different shows. But, I'm curious. What people think.

What would you base your decision on? There are so many different catagories to form an opinion on this. The first being, whether or not you were/are completely obsessed with this show.

Also, did/does the show make a profound impact on TV as a whole? I don't think ratings has much to do with it. If we went by ratings alone it would be Baywatch, and that's really scary.

So, taking all that into consideration. After reviewing everything. I'm split. I have to considerations. Not only because I absolutely adore the shows, but because they completely changed the way we watch TV.


The 2 shows are:

SEINFELD

Seinfeld

Seinfeld


24

24



Both these shows redefinded their genres. 24's influence is still being felt today. Just check out all the serial dramas that premiered this year. Truly, both of these shows have totally reinvented the way we watch TV.

So my question is to you, the reader, what would you name as the best show or shows ever? And Why?

Id have to go with Friends and The Simpsons. I say The Simpsons because of all the qoutable qoutes and the other animation shows it helped spark like South Park, The Family Guy etc etc.

My reason for Friends is not only because its a great comedy but the way it influenced society, from the millions of women who got Rachel's hairdo and all the other things it helped inspire.

But thats just my personal opinion, its all very subjective I guess.

October 26th 2006 00:15
TonyK: You're totally right it's all relative. But, I do agree with you on The Simpsons, especially regarding animation.

But, I can't see eye to eye with you on Friends. But, that's what this post was all about. I just want to see people's reasoning behind their choices.

Yeah thats right. Friends did kind of drift off towards the end there. But during its prime I think it was one of the best comedies going around.

Comment by Aaron

October 26th 2006 00:26
TonyK: Yeah it got pretty bad at the end when they all wanted obscene amounts of money per episode. Then well the show JOEY cam along and that was completely terrible.

I can't say that Friends was ever funnier than Seinfeld though.

Hi Aaron,
Wow, what a difficult question. There are so many great shows around (and a great many rubbish ones too). I guess all I can go by is the first thought that popped into my head when I read your post.

One of my fav shows ever was the 1980s program Quantum Leap with Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell. I loved the show at the time and I've still got a couple of episodes on video tape. Please don't ask me why ... I guess it just appealed to my love of all things time travel related.

I also love mini-series like ANZACS and For The Term of his Natural Life. They both have excellent story lines and brilliant acting, which always helps.

TV is about learning and escapism for me, making my mind think about what I'm watching and all of these shows did this.

Hi Aaron,

I vote for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which I think reinvented just the kind of layers that can be brought to the screen via episodic television. Buffy managed to reinvent itself with every new episode, borrowing from genres as diverse as action, comedy, romance, horror, coming-of-age and musicals and had remarkable retro-continuity, ofa type very atypical of a TV show. Angel is also similiarly engaging as a postmodern work.

Comment by Aaron

October 26th 2006 17:10
postmoderncritic: Never was one to get into Buffy. Sarah Michelle Gellar just rubbed me the wrong way. But, I can see where you're coming from, if we're judging it on purely influnce of TV.

Buffy and Angel have huge and rabid fan bases. And I can see that it really did do a lot for the Fantasy/Sci Fi genre of TV.

Aaron.

Aaron,
Sarah Michelle Gellar was the reason I didn't watch the show until its 5th season... I thought she was a bad role model for young girls due to her body shape, and I still don't know that Joss Whedon (the creator) should be promoting female beauty along such skinny lines, but the show actually deals with her as being marginalised as a skinny blonde. Buffy's opponents habitually write her off as weak until they see what she's capable of (her physical strength is meant to be a metaphor for emotional weight).

I think Buffy engages social issues in a much more interesting and informed way than most shows that operate under the tag of 'realism'.

Comment by Aaron

October 26th 2006 17:42
postmoderncritic: Wow. Quite indepth there. I can see what you're saying.

I kinda just meant, as an actress I think she's just not that good. But, you've got a great point there. And I'm sure that's what was meant by her character.

Aaron.

Yeah, I agree that she's not a very good actor... she's far outdone by most people on the show, but then again her character is meant to have elements of a classic bimbo, which is supposed to make her otherworldly identity more poignant (Buffy often says things like "I just want to do normal girlie things, not get demon goo all over my clothes!"). I don't necessarily think that we should empower a desire for simplicity and ordinariness, but the show is very well done nevertheless, and other characters represent a more spiritually and intellectually refined side.

Comment by RUSerious

October 26th 2006 19:20
Going back aways, I'd have to say M.A.S.H. It was one of the only TV shows (the only??) that was actually much better than the movie that spawned it! Even today, if you mention Radar, Hawkeye, Klinger, etc., most people who watched TV in that era will know exactly what show you are talking about.

My second would be St Elsewhere, which I think was the precursor of all of the medical shows we see today.

Aaron, what a difficult question! I honestly just can't pick one show, and I'll stick to programmes of more recent times. I prefer to look at the shows that have mound a profound (positive) impact on television, while also being enjoyable.

I agree with you on Seinfeld, it broke the boundaries of Sitcoms, characters and plots and paved the way for a different generation of comedy. I also agree with TonyK and his nod to the Simpsons - it was really the catalyst for bringing adult cartoons to the relative mainstream in the West.

Postmoderncritic's assessment of Buffy is spot on- while critics wrote it off as udicrous show with a tiny blonde girl battling vampires, the plotlines were much deeper than that. Postmoderncritic summed it up better than I ever could.

Another show would have to be Alias. What could have been just another spy show was so much more than that - the rambaldi storyline brought an extra level of meaning to the show that is absent in your run of the mill action drama. I would contest that, since the shows started in the same year, it is really the combination of Alias and 24 that have brought about the revolution of dramas.

The Voices in my Head
I would have to say, Will & Grace. I loved that show and plan to get the entire show on DVD. The entire premise was sweet and although the characters were all beautiful people, a pet peeve of mine, they were miserably human, too. I can't tell you how many times I watched that show and laughed until I cried.

Comment by Tracy

October 26th 2006 22:20


Movies and Life
What a great question. My favourites are:

Friends - not very original I'm afraid)
Seinfeld - how many Seinfeld phrases have crept into our lives)
Will and Grace - I agree with Voices, that they were human and relatable
Love My Way - amazing program that didn't shy away from dealing with death and grief.
Secret Life of Us - only the earlier episodes though

I'm sure I'll think of a few others later....

Comment by Aaron

October 26th 2006 22:21
RU Serious: Those shows are a little out of my era. I have seen and know M.A.S.H. But, I guess you have to be from that era to find it funny.

Seinfeld was the show of my era. It is interesting to see that the shows people think are the best are the shows from their eras.

Tracy and Luke: I bet that Doctor Who was monumental in the UK and Austrailia. We here in America never really got a full fledged dosing of the show. I've only seen parts of the new one that's on Sci-Fi I think, with that guy that was in Gone in Sixty Seconds. While I'm not a Sci-Fi person through and through, I did like what I saw.

Celebrity Obsession
I don't think I could choose just one show, but my personal favourites include:

1. Simpsons - a cartoon that is as much (if not more) for adults than kids. And so damned clever
2. M.A.S.H - the show ran for longer than the Korean War that it was based on last for! War/Medical Drama/Comedy. What a combination.
3. Buffy - sci/fi made accessible to everyone. And Joss Whedon is a master of pop culture.
4. Seinfeld - even if you're not a fan of this show you have to admit that it changed tv comedy.
5. West Wing - I think this was a brilliant show. Not least because Martin Sheen was exactly the President we all wish the US had.

My honorable mentions go to (honorable because I can honestly say I've never watched an episode of either of these two shows, but you can't deny that they deserve their place in the list) :
-Dr Who
-Star Trek

I'm going to stop now before I think of any other shows that I LOVE.

Buffy, Buffy and more Buffy. I adore this show. It's been said before, but it's just cutting edge pop culture. And I love the dichotomy of tiny, bimbo Buffy and powerful, strategic Buffy. A slayer in love with a vampire? Brilliant twist. I just love it.

The Shield. Very confronting television. Vic Mackey is an amoral bastard and yet I find him a really sympathetic character. Michael Chiklis is a genius in being able to pull this off.

Alias. Jennifer Garner occasionally annoys the hell out of me, but I overlook that and just go along for the ride.

24. Fantastic show. American drama at its fist pumping, gung ho, patriotic best.

Scrubs. Surreal, moving and one of the funniest shows ever made.

Curb Your Enthusiasm. I never got into Seinfeld but this Larry David show is one of the wittiest, clever shows I've ever seen.

And finally I'm going to go with Spooks. Keeps me glued to the set from beginning to end.

I forgot about Sex and the City.

People have already picked the shows I would choose, but I would probably say Friends or Buffy. Friends because it was just such a phenomenon for a comedy series and it was so clever and witty, and Buffy because it was the first show to really cross genres the way it did (and I think Joss Whedon is one of the best storytellers ever).

Oh and I agree on The Simpsons too. Definitely. Nothing changed TV like the Simpsons did.

Quite a few good ones up there, but for sheer comic value, you just can't go past Happy Days. I'm not from that era but I do appreciate it now. If you want to get into spin-offs, how about Mork and Mindy which spawned the great Robin Williams. Both Ron Howard and Henry Winkler have fantastic careers of thier own now, but it was hard to watch Henry after so many years of The Fonz. (Absolute Strangers).

West Wing was my personal favourite. I don't understand politics at all so it was an entertaining education for me. Plus, the all-star cast! Rob Lowe, Martin Sheen, Brad Whitworth, Alison Janney, Richard Schiff, Stockard Channing and I'm gonna marry "Donna"!!!

I so have to agree with the Singing Detective. What a brilliant series with great music.

Secret Life of Us was another one that I stayed up to tune in to, although it seemed to lose something each time one of the original cast members left. Although I was sorry to see it go, it wouldn't have been the same now Deb Mailman has left as well.

Seseme Street ... sorry, can't stand it, even though I have two children. How about Play School, what a classic. And Simon Burke is really nice to tune in to twice a day!

I came here because of the sheer vote tally you have. Also I'd have to agree with Seinfeld! Kramer kills me.

there was an English show I watched as a kid ... bloody loved it ... The Kids From 37A ... no parents, being brought up by the elder daughter, a younger brother and sister ... cockney accents, a light drama I think it was.

Everybody: Sorry I just had to do this to give myself 100 comments. Laugh or mock if you must. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside though.

as a kid - lost in space (you have to love smith)

now - there are some brilliant episodes of Criminal Intent (then again i am a little biased because i love vincent d)

seriously if you enjoy great interplay between characters this show has it (anti-thesis, a person of interest)
