wow! i don't know any of these series, i guess they're not broadcasted in the states. i think series are getting better and better with the time ever since HBO launched its quality shows

peace

Yohann,

Thats because all the ones in Graham's list were made in the UK!!!

I'm sure you have re-runs of Eastenders, and Monty Python in the states?

Mind you we do get most/ some of the USA series...

My list:
Friends
The simpsons
The Office
...

"i think series are getting better and better with the time ever since HBO launched its quality shows"

. . . majority of these are pre-HBO . . they range from the 50s to now . . HBO? There was life before HBO . . and maybe just maybe the Directors and Writers of HBO had been influenced by these . . oldies . .

Peace & Love

Grazie

heard some awesome review about bbc's the office. can't wait they run it here

Keith Loh May 6th, 2004 10:57 AM

It's been out on DVD all this month.

Richard Alvarez May 6th, 2004 11:04 AM

Old series that are better than some on the list.

Even allowing that aesthetics change over time... and some of the new series will seem "quaint' in their stylistic approach before too long.

I submit MASH and ALL IN THE FAMILY

Groundbreaking, great writing, cutting edge and still worth watching.

Keith Loh May 6th, 2004 11:34 AM

Hill Street Blues, Prime Suspect, Twin Peaks, early seasons of Law and Order...

Graham Bernard May 6th, 2004 12:24 PM

Yohann, when you finally get to see The Office, I'd really like to hear what you think of it . . truly! It's a "managment" thing - yeah?

Grazie

John Hudson May 6th, 2004 08:43 PM

MASH!

I had almost forgot; and yes, Bunker was classic. Here's one:

Electra Woman and Dyna Girl!

LOL

Or anything in the Syd and Marty Croft lineup!


Alright, I was 6.

Charles Papert May 7th, 2004 01:21 AM

The Croft Supershow! Munched quite a few bowls of Quisp over that one.

John Hudson May 7th, 2004 09:19 PM

Quisp!

LOL

Chris Hurd May 8th, 2004 03:51 AM

OT: between Quisp and Quake, I always thought Quisp was better. Better shwag offers, too. Waited weeks for the high-flying-UFO-on-a-parachute deal but it was worth it.

Graham Bernard May 8th, 2004 04:15 AM

I have BUT totally lost the plot on this thread!! - No change there then . . .


Grazie
