With the end of Battlestar Galactica this weekend, I'm inspired to start listing what I feel are some of the best television series of all time. I'll only nominate shows that have reached their end (so that I know the series won't jump the shark in the next year). I have really varied tastes, so these might be all over the map, but here's my first nominee for "Great TV"---Xena: Warrior Princess.
So it's campy, with cheesy effects, sappy lines, and often ridiculous costumes. But that's why I love it! This show is just so much fun to watch and surprisingly well-written and well-acted. It reminds me of reading adventure stories as a kid. The episodes vary a lot between drama and comedy. With this terrible economy, this series is definitely a feel-good indulgent treat, so if you're looking for something to watch, give it a chance!
