Television:

Even though it's been off the air for a while, the X-Files is still one of my all time favorites. Millennium and Highlander the Series are also some guilty pleasures. Currently, I am addicted to Heroes, Rescue Me, The Riches and Nip/Tuck. I'm also one of the few straight males who really enjoyed Gilmore Girls. At least the first 6 seasons anyway. This last one kind of stunk.
