The State - I don't think anyone said it yet.

how would you guys transcribe the theme song to the state?

Hey yaw oxagow! Hey yaw oxagow! gowannanonny gowannanonneeee?

hard 2 improve on cankles list

simpsons
afv
neon gensis evangelion
secret world of alex mack
batman tas
larry sanders
arthur
oz
mr. show
the odyssey or prime suspect

Sports Night was definitely one I thought about listing

damn canks basically made me realize i'm just gonna name all nickelodeon shows if i'm gonna do this

Two of my favorites of all-time:
The Larry Sanders Show
The Kids In The Hall

and then...
Newsradio
Roseanne
Twin Peaks
The Simpsons (I prefer to imagine that it ended in the 90s)
Homicide
Beavis & Butthead
My So-Called Life
Seinfeld

I listed my 90s/00s-straddlin' shows on the 00s thread (Strangers With Candy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, The Sopranos, Friends, Big Train, Smack The Pony). I don't know where to put them, so I guess they'll stay in their sad llttle limbo list.

Get A Life, The State, Supes: TAS, Justice League: TAS, and X-Files all get a consolation ribbon.

I have a very good feeling that I'd be rating some Chris Morris or Steve Coogan show very highly, but I've only just started getting into that stuff and haven't quite picked any faves yet.

(This is two best-of TV threads in a row where I've agreed very strongly with Dr. Morbius. I've gone through the looking glass...)

You didn't agree that strongly with Morbz, you admitted to liking more than 2 shows.

Ha. Yes, but if I only had to pick two...

When was Daria?

'97-'02

Guys, i think we're forgetting You Wrote It, You Watch It

rat in the vat, fred schnieder nightmare, classic imo

I'd str8 up watch those eps 10 times in a row

this was my jam i ain't bullshittin

Yeah, I was never that big on The State but I love You Wrote It, You Watch It (xpost)

i feel like every single time "Stairway To Heaven" comes on the radio i quote something from the episode they did about it

MTV needs to cut the shit and put that out on DVD

It's not like anyone who was on that show became incredibly famous

well, considering how long it took The State to get out on DVD and how much more popular/well known that was, i'm not holding my breath

Woah. I completely forgot that existed until just now.

The Adventures of Pete & Pete! can't believe I hadn't mentioned that yet!

ENBB knows what's up

powerpuff girls!

if only for this guy

fuck, i forgot news radio too. i kinda just wanna say "phil hartman's career inclusive."

also whoever was dissing batman: tas up there needs to give me one superman or j.l. episode as good as that clayface two-parter.

Or the Two-Face two-parter! Or "Almost Got 'Im", that was genius.

Millennium - despite some very screwy continuity between each season it had some truly great moments. Better than the X-Files at its best.

man i just wanna spend the rest of the afternoon watching batman episodes on youtube

also whoever was dissing batman: tas up there

Not dissing! Just stating that, since it seems to be held as a high-water mark of its particular niche, it hasn't aged quite as well for me as some of the latter DCU animated series. Which I'm admittedly basing more on some of the earlier episodes. It's still good stuff that I'm quite fond of.

X-Files seasons 1-4, especially any episode written by Darin Morgan, and particularly "Jose Chung's From Outer Space" which is one of the best episodes of anything ever.

"Jose Chung" could very well be the single best thing on TV in the 90s.

Xena: Warrior Princess. Lock thread.

Squirt TV

Australia, represent:

Fast Forward
The Late Show
DAAS Kapital
Funky Squad
GP (pretty fogey but mostly great)
Seachange

I'm sure there are more but I can't remember!

I will admit to watching Heartbreak High, Flying Doctors, Country Practice, Neighbors, Home & Away & Blue Heelers, but reluctant to file under 'great'.

(Except for when wossisname the cute pilot from Flying Doctors died and they played that Dynamic Hepnotics song at his funeral. that was grebt.)

is DAAS Kapital the Doug Anthony Allstars thing?

Yep!

I used to love them. If that ever made it over here (UK), I never saw it. I remember seeing some TV special they had over here and it was shite, and regretting ever telling anyone that they were the greatest thing ever (based on a couple of Edinburgh Festival shows). I sort of missed watching TV in the early/mid-90s due to being a lol arts student and spending my entire life asleep or in the pub.

No love for Sesame Street? It ran almost every day in the 90s.

Has Rugrats been mentioned? That was a staple in college...

yeah all those classic kids shows - rugrats, all that, doug, hey arnold, kenan and kel etc
