slitherhither asked... I compiled a list of my top 25 fave TV shows of all time. I was going to use a similar "tiered" structure that I used in this post, but decided that wasn't going to work if it was going to encompass such a breadth of good shows. I took a stab at actually ordering the list, which was very difficult, ESPECIALLY for the top 10, because frankly they could all be interchangeable in their slots, depending on how I feel on a particular day. The list is obviously liable to change as I get into new shows, watch more seasons of current shows, etc. The only criteria I used was "TV I love watching." It doesn't mean they've necessarily got any other acclaim or substance beyond that. I also left out shows that I loved as a kid (The Wonder Years, Quantum Leap), because it's been so long that I don't really know how they'd fit in the list or if they'd stand the test of time. All those qualifications stated...
( Here's the list! )
A coworker alerted me to an upcoming FX series, American Horror Story. It looks good, I'll have to keep an eye out. Not only does it star the wonderful Connie Britton, it's created by Glee creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk! Though it is obviously very different from Glee.
I am kind of annoyed with Trader Joe's... or at least, with this one particular branch. I went one day to get some Kerrygold butter, but they were out of the salted kind. They said they were getting more the next day. I went back a few days later, and they were out of both salted AND unsalted! Um... if the demand is so high, STOCK UP, amirite? And was told again that they would get more "tomorrow." GRRRRRR. I found it at Safeway, except get this... an 8oz package costs $4.79 there (at TJ's it's $2.89)! That means for $10, I could get a whole extra one and then some, at TJ's. The problem is that there isn't a TJ that's super conveniently near me, so going to one is like a special trip that I have to make.
