inpo:
Spaced - sheer brilliance, untouched in writing, directing and acting.
Ep. 1 (full):
Arrested Development - groundbreaking, absurd, pure genius..
David Cross at his very best:
The Office - spawning copies all around the world, totally new, yet we all could immediately relate.
this type of situation i think we all have been in at least once (at least those who have worked in an office...):
Ren & Stimpy - a cartoon that still manages to make me laugh tears. insane, obscure and hilarious
powdered toast man... crazy idea to say the least:
Firefly - as believable as sci-fi gets. great characters, brilliant dialogue, and wonderful stories.
Poor River:
Blackadder - four series', a few specials, and every single episode is pure excellence. shakespeare would be proud of what the creators have done with his words..
World War 1 has never been funnier:
Seinfeld - his standup shows might not have been outstanding, but in combination with Larry David he created the series that set the bar for everything that followed. Impossible not to include it...
A library detective named 'Bookman':
The Sopranos - i dont think any words are nessecary here...
Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law - saying all the things about our cartoon favourites from way back when, that we were always thinking.
Reno 911! - some of you may disagree, but as soon as i saw the first scene, i was hooked. hands down the best improv comedy ive ever seen.
With all the hype around the movie, it was hard to find a good clip from the show..
Honorable mention goes to
Twin Peaks - as gripping as surreal television gets.
there is indeed a very thin line between genius and madness:
i would have liked to include sealab 2021, but its sort of similar to birdman.. a few others also didnt make the list, yet they are by no means less entertaining (league of gentlemen, monty python, space: above and beyond, star trek ds9, curb your enthusiasm, etc. etc.)
thanks for watching
