well, i think it's pretty well-regarded by people that watched it, but you could say that about just about any show. it sure didn't win any Emmys or critics awards, though.

We never had Sky when I was young so I had to go around my only-Newcastle-supporter-whos-never-been-to-Newcastle cousin's to start my hatred for Andy Gray etc. I miss rubbish cheerleaders etc. at football games.

― \(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Friday, 18 September 2009 18:38 (fourteen years ago) link
I think any show with any episodes airing during the '90s should qualify for a nomination.
Now I need to work up my list!!!!
― I HEART CREEPY MENS (Deric W. Haircare), Saturday, 7 November 2009 01:48 (fourteen years ago) link
Not enough Dawson's love on the 00's thread, so I'm upping it for the 90s as well. Also, Taking Over The Asylum, which I already know is vying with Cracker and Queer As Folk for my number one (until other people post things I haven't remembered about yet).
― ailsa, Saturday, 7 November 2009 01:57 (fourteen years ago) link
I think the Sopranos and F&G should be excluded because of their showing in the other poll as well as Sopranos being mostly in the 2000s. Buffy should qualify, however, because the lower average of voting came, in many cases, because people felt the best of the series was broadcast in the 90s.
― The Devil's Avocado (Gukbe), Saturday, 7 November 2009 01:58 (fourteen years ago) link
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
― lindsay goham (some dude), Saturday, 7 November 2009 02:12 (fourteen years ago) link
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
― Nhex, Saturday, 7 November 2009 03:05 (fourteen years ago) link
Just include them, so that Sopranos fans can whine again that they're show is too low.

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.

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.
