name a tv show... ... that you slept on for a long time but eventually discovered you love it 
Mine is Scrubs on NBC. I avoided it the first 2 years, don't know what finally made me watch but I LOVE it now  I wish it was in syndication so I could see the first 2 seasons.
Okay, your turn  I watch WAY too much tv    I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

SWEET!
Mine is Gilmore Girls.
I keep hearing about that one, but something's blocking me from investigating it
***** Kevin Hill is turning out to be good  Wasn't enthused at first but I'm really digging it now I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

Yeah-I've been into Scrubs since the beginning.
Gilmore's pretty good this year-last year was better, but this one's had its moments. I've wanted to check out Kevin Hill actually. LOST is another good one I never miss as well. | |

Mine was Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I'd seen a few episodes and thought it was the lamest idea for a show in a long time -not to mention it was based off of a craptastic movie. Kristy Swanson as Buffy? 
Then by chance I caught an episode that happen to feature around Spike that was actually pretty good. Spike.  But by then, it was already halfway through Season 6. Luckily, I was able to catch myself up by watching reruns.
Oddly enough, I still don't like Buffy herself -maybe it's more the character and less Ms. Swanson? 
I later found out the few episodes I'd seen were pretty fucking lame ones. So it goes to show, not to judge a book by it's cover. Or a show by it's worst moments.  [Edited 11/7/04 3:09am] "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

Any good?It's one of my favorites actually-it's on DVD now-the complete series. Hard to describe-it's like a space western, but really really well done-that description doesn't do it justice. Great cast, great show-there's going to be a movie actually called Serenity (after the ship). From the fan base alone people bought the DVD's so much that they decided to greenlight the feature film-it's being filmed now I believe. It's different from Buffy in the way it holds it's own-and I love that, that it's not the same format/feel, but everyone I've showed the show to has gotten hooked. It's a shame it's not on TV anymore, but check out the DVD! | |

I quite like "Without A Trace". I usually avoid cop shows like the plague but I like how the plots are like Scooby-Doo for grown ups! It's always a family member or a friend who are responsible for the person going missing! Just like it was always the janitor in Scooby-Doo. I love it!
I can't remember how I started watching it. | |

'Gilmore Girls'...my sister watched it the 1st season and for some reason i wouldn't give it a try. watched it the second season and have been addicted since!!!!
'24'...didn't think i'd like it...again didn't watch the 1st season but after hearing most of my friends talking about how amazing the show is...rented the 1st season on DVD and loved it.  you're only as old as you feel..............so how old do i feel 
Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants. | |

I don't sleep on tv shows. I sleep on my bed or maybe the sofa (although that usually leaves me with a horrible ache in my neck)
 
I don't watch of network tv. I'm a "What Not to Wear" "Clean Sweep" kinda viewer. I'm firmly planted in denial |

Since I've been working evenings for a long long time, I've missed many shows but most of them probably weren't worth my time. I did get into "Northern Exposure" after it went to syndication, though. | |

"strangers with candy" somebody did a topic on this one but anyway i always knew i liked it but never saw a full episode 'cause at the time i had no say in having cable...and as the seasons went by i forgot about it. i saw a link that spaceboy posted that can keep on track. from what i saw the show is hilarious.
let's see what other show?.... oh "arrested development" and "that 70s show." "the 70s show" i didn't get into until i started watching the reruns. then i had to see the new one. | |

I'll go with the original post and say Scrubs. I think it is very funny.
The other show that I got in late on is The 70's Show. When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |

Lots of them...who's got time to sit down at 8 or 9 during the week to watch a TV show???
1. Seinfeld - I didn't watch during it's original run, but love it now that it's on syndie. 2. ER - Ditto 3. Roseanne - Same 4. All in the Family - Cutting edge, still Some that are catching on... ***Will and Grace ***That Jim Belushi show (???) Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Eventhough it's long over now (in the US anyway)  I was WAY late getting into Ab Fab. I fell in love w/ that shit about 3 years after Comedy Central started showing it.
Coupling too, I just got into it last year. & now Jeff is gone
