In light of Mr. Basehart's recent success in his movie challange, I decided I'd take up something similiar. I believe this will be Uncomplete Project #53 in the last three years.
Ok, I don't know television. The only show I watched on TV regularly after MST3K ended was 24, and then it started to suck so I quit, and now I'll watch a season or something or other if someone turns me on to it, but I don't hunt TV down. So, what have I missed? Here's the challange. Name some shows. Any show on DVD that you think is worth watching, and I'll watch the first season. I can't promise I'll keep following the show after that, but I will watch every episode of season one.
As long as their on DVD, the skies the limit. Adult shows, kids shows, American, UK, anime, sitcoms, soap operas, comedies, you name it. THREE SHOWS PER FORUM USER!!!
The polls are now closed, and we have ourselves a list. A show will be crossed off once completed and reviewd.

You should watch My Name is Earl (back episodes since it's not on the air any more).
And Oz (same thing).
And Jericho (also off the air).

If you're going to watch Battlestar, watch the miniseries (about 2 hours long) first.

Penn & Teller's Bullshit.
And I don't really have a third in mind

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace Both unavailable on DVD in the US. I could be wrong but believe Darkplace is over at youtube. It's truly an awesome series, Greg. It's the only reason why I still have my region free DVD player. I'll suggest: Spaced
