This is a hard one to talk about, because I really don't get to watch it like I used to, so most of the shows I bring up will probably be old ones. I like, The Thunderbirds, Battle of the Planets (Gatchaman), Green Acres, The Addams Family, Jack Benny, Absolutely Fabulous, Space Academy (Boy did this show stink and I loved every minute of it), On the Air (Which was a David Lynch project that NEVER got enough airtime to find an audience), Bewitched, Space 1999, The George Burns Show, Fawlty Towers, The Black Adder, King of the Hill, Joe 90, Miami Vice (Oh COME ON, you probably watched it too if you were a child of the 80s), Supercar, UFO, The Outsiders, The Green Hornet, Lost in Space, Twin Peaks, Benny Hill, American Gothic (which I recommend you try out on DVD..."Someone's at the door!"), Star Blazers, Third Rock from the Sun, Batman The Animated Series, I Dream of Jeannie, ROBOTECH, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, Max Headroom, Inspector Gadget, LIVE With Regis and Kelly, Jeopardy, Will and Grace, Fraiser, Taxi, Barney Miller, Murphy Brown, Mary Tyler Moore, CSI and CSI Miami, The Practice, and The Twilite Zone. Please note that there are no reality shows on here...because there is nothing real about them.
The Bible, Pierre et Gilles (a compilation of their works), Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Bible, Psion, Catspaw, and Dreamfall, all by the excellent and divinely talented Joan D. Vinge...Anything Eric Van Lustbader put to print, mostly because I love escapist men's adventure...'Til Morning Comes, by Han Suyin...The Last Son of Krypton and Miracle Monday, both by Elliot Maggin...Command the Morning and The Good Earth, both by Pearl S. Buck...A Wrinkle in Time, A Wind at the Door, and A Swiftly Tilting Planet, all by Madeline L'Engle...Bordertown, by William Shetterly (I think that is who wrote it)...Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand. OH, and I also read a lot of nonfiction about things like crime, factory work, how things are designed, ancient Egypt, and lately, China. I usually read three books at a time.
Jesus Christ, and the comic book hero, Green Lantern
