Forgive me for doing this barwars, but you gotta admit it's funny looking at some of the beatings you've given dramas in the past. Seems like you're becoming a big supporter now. Welcome to the other side.

I watch TV to laugh, I watch movies to laugh.
Thats why Im not a fan of dramas.
Real life is dramatic enough.
------------------------------------------------------------
Im not a big fan of dramas.... and theres few, if any, Id buy on DVD.
------------------------------------------------------------
I yell at game shows and reality shows.
And of course -- die laughing with some sitcoms.
Thats why I dont like many dramas -- they're so, uninteractive!
--------------------------------------------------------------
I think that sitcoms are the best form of TV.
As for worst.... dramas. (<--OUCH!!!--me)
---------------------------------------------------------------
As for me....
Sitcoms
Reality (GOOD REALITY)
Talk Shows (with celebrities, not trash)
Game Shows
Cartoons
Dramas (hardly watch any, ever)

On the positive side, to your credit you did say this:

I like "fun" dramas.
Shows like ER and The West Wing bore me to death.

The dark side.

But I must say, of my list -- numbers 1,3,4,5 and 6 are all comedic.

5. Charlie's Angels
6. The X Files
7. Wonder Woman (just recently got into this, so campy and good... can't wait for season 2)
8. Simon And Simon
9. Six Feet Under
10. Angel

1. Charmed
2. 7th Heaven
3. Everwood
4. Smallville
5. MacGyver
6. Degrassi (all types)
