I think According to bex may have been a case of something mentioning something crap on the top ten shows of the decade list but i added it just in case (i think i got every damn show mentioned on both of those threads and sorry, no dead set or xavier.)

Shameless bump #6: They had Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo and The Shins; Gilmore Girls had to be the indie-ist show of the decade, right? (Skins losing points for lol nu rave.)

i'm surprised no-one nominated Human Remains

Also, just noticed the show I possibly enjoyed most this decade didn't make the list: Popworld. Damn that Alex Zane for ruining everything. I will never stop hating that guy.
― Samuel (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 29 September 2009 15:28 (fourteen years ago) link
oh man yeah Popworld was so crucial to my formative years as a music/pop culture junkie. I kinda hate Amstell and Oliver on their own now but together those guys were gold.
and yes, ugh alex zane!
― Roz, Tuesday, 29 September 2009 15:37 (fourteen years ago) link
But but but what about Buzzcocks? And his stand-up? And I'm sure Oliver will stop being on the horrible T4 and get a proper show one day (or hopefully already has) and I can love her again.
― Samuel (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 29 September 2009 15:41 (fourteen years ago) link
Buzzcocks is great but he does sometimes go overboard on that show. I always liked that Miquita kinda reined him in whenever he got too bonkers.
never seen his standup though - any good?
― Roz, Tuesday, 29 September 2009 15:45 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah, although it was basically an hour of his dad trying to get him off boys and Miquita/Pop World jokes. (This was a couple years ago.)

4 vote-worthy shows left off the list above (b/c they weren't mentioned on the other list?):

Craig Charles cld be adequately explained as a poet, Corrie actor, voice of Asterix, funk DJ, ex-Tranmere player, and occasional crackhead. He's a pretty awesome guy and a genuine renaissance man, in fact.
― ogmor, Tuesday, 29 September 2009 21:09 (fourteen years ago) link
Saw him DJ at Big Chill, he was pretty great.
― chap, Tuesday, 29 September 2009 21:14 (fourteen years ago) link
i never knew a lot of those things. i did like the funk show he had on the radio though, wonder if he still does it.

Is Red Dwarf suddenly in poor taste?

Dave'll do that to a show.

I just think red dwarf is shit, though I guess he is pretty good in it

Shameless bump #7: For someone who soooo loves silent comedy, Paul Merton sure did talk a lot this decade, huh?

I also forgot Blind Date (1999-2006), probably the finest "reality" show devised or executed this decade...

Well there is still a couple weeks of shameless bumping to go, so let's see where it takes us. Unfortunately not going to be around the next couple days to do it though.
