Great TV shows of the 90s

honestly it would be pretty fucking ridiculous if F&G finished top 5 in one poll for its last 12 episodes, and then finished high in another poll for its first 6 episodes -- how many victory laps does it need, leave room for other 90s shows already

i mean Buffy and Sopranos, sure, that at at least makes sense

yeah, f&g was my #1 in the other poll, and would STILL be my #1 in the 90s poll probably, so i'd feel kind of dickish about that

Just include them, so that Sopranos fans can whine again that they're show is too low.

Harry & Cosh!

I wonder if "The Staggering Stories of Ferdinand De Bargos" stands up still? I remember it seeming like a work of genius at the time, but it's been imitated too many times since then, and probably bettered in the process.

Was Jim Henson's The Storyteller nineties? That was pretty cool.

RE the Sopranos/Buffy/F&G controversy - I don't really see that there's any fair way to do it other than to include every show nominated that had any episodes aired in 90s. But do try and base your votes on the particular show's 90s output - and remember they'll all be up against a new array of great TV, including prime Simpsons! That is all. New thread tomorrow.

Ignoring the "great" for a sec, did anyone see anything from the two seasons Cleopatra 2525 got before being cancelled?

"An exotic dancer, cryogenically frozen in the year 2001, is accidentally thawed out in 2525 by two female warriors who are fighting against evil robots which have taken over the world."
