[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 10:08 am (UTC)
Never ever! I cought 5 minutes once and was totally bored. My bro was watching it. *g*

I'm more shocked that I never managed any of the Trek shows completely except for Voyager.

[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 10:21 am (UTC)
Rofl. Quality shows hon! *giggles*

IS quality. IS entertaining. That's important to me. I'd put both SG above some of the shows on the list.*pouts*
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 10:23 am (UTC)
awww..and I actually misread it. It says greatest. My bad.

And I know what you mean!!! I love it. I love my boys and my OT4 and I'm happy with it.

Don't pout! *squiches*
Kate: Buffy Huh?[identity profile] mskatej.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 10:42 am (UTC)
It bothers me that they think Lost is better than The Wire, but I am happy to see Buffy do so well. :)

(Do you know if this list was voted for by readers or staff?)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 12:18 pm (UTC)
Do you think it's actually sorted? It idn't even think about that. I haven't seen the wire, but there are others in the list where I don't quite agree.

And I have no idea. I got the meme on [livejournal.com profile] shironezumi's lj.
[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 12:19 pm (UTC)
Wow, you have never seen an episode of Sex and the City? :D *shocked* But yay Buffy at #2 <3
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 12:32 pm (UTC)
never ever! Well..5 minutes of one.
<3
[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 12:40 pm (UTC)
*lol* I used to get together with a group of girls from school every week and we'd have watching parties. Good times. ^^
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 12:53 pm (UTC)
*g* That is awesome. I never had that much until now! *g* Hopefully Sophie will be alrightn so we can coninue Rome.

And those fiv minutes. I really hated that ain chick ;)
[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 01:20 pm (UTC)
Aww. :) Yeah, there were a lot of show I really only started because I was watching them with people. The only reason i'm still watching (or trying to watch, since I'm like a season behind) desperate housewives is because i'm watching it with other people ^^

lol aww.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 01:32 pm (UTC)
Heee.. I stopped the Housewives after s2. I'm actually too lazy to get the eps. It's so mucb effort to just..you know.. click!

And I'm watching a lot with people actually. West Wing, X-Files, Dr. Who, Rome, Primeval...etc. It's quite cool. Though once I'm hooked it doesn't matter all that much.
[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com on April 1st, 2008 12:22 pm (UTC)
lol yeah, thats why i'm behind. :D but now that Nathan is on it, I actually feel an urge to continue watching :D

Hehe true. ^^
[identity profile] ninnui.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 01:25 pm (UTC)
That's a great list! I'm surprised though (and not because of the fact that you never watched a single episode of Sex and the City XD) - you've never seen one episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus?
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 01:33 pm (UTC)
rofl! There is a lot I haven't seen I bet and to be very honest and I'm about to emberass myself here. I thoought that was a movie! Like Life of Brian. *hangsheadinshame*
[identity profile] ninnui.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 02:10 pm (UTC)
lol Don't worry ^^ You're willing to learn, that's commendable ;) Do you want to have the Flying Circus? I have all episodes and am willing to burn and send them :)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 04:56 pm (UTC)
God..you're awesome!!! *g*
[identity profile] ninnui.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 05:53 pm (UTC)
Of course I am! ;) Was that a yes, btw? Send me your address then, and I burn then on the weekend when I'm at the other computer. Here (http://ninnui.livejournal.com/37413.html) is my contact post, the comments are screened :)

I concur! I didn't think it was possible to have gone through life without watching Python AND Sex and the City! My childhood wouldn't have been the same without Python and my 20s wouldn't have been the same without SaTC.

Ah well, because [livejournal.com profile] elli is lovely, I'll let her off *nods*
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 04:57 pm (UTC)
Well, I watched other Pythons! *pouts*

And I don't quite believe you *issuspicious*
[identity profile] honeyfitz.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 05:00 pm (UTC)
Oh you can trust me! Especially when you present me with icons featuring Ronon's arms :D
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 05:06 pm (UTC)
I can do you one better. Though I still don't qute believe you *eyes*
[identity profile] katkim.livejournal.com on March 31st, 2008 06:25 pm (UTC)
Forget Sex and the City, you haven't watch Blackadder or Red Dwarf!! Staples of my childhood :)
