My list (which is not even close to ten): 1. BtVS, obvs. 2. M*A*S*H. Which apparently my generation doesn't watch? Or maybe it's just that we all saw the re-runs when they were too young to understand, and so no one really knows what it's like. 3. VM seaon one. Just that season. I've never even seen the other seasons; I'm not going to tell anyone else to. *g* 4. Firefly. Because it's cowboys in space and Gina Torres is perfect and I love the theme song. And it's short. (I think people could safely skip the movie, though. Whatever ending people imagine would be better.)
I think that's it? I definitely have other shows I enjoy, but nothing that I'd be willing to stake my TV taste reputation on, nothing that I'm willing to say, "I love this and also it's legitimately good." The first 1.5 seasons of BSG, maybe?
For cultural literacy, everyone should watch a season or so of MacGuyver, and also Gilligan's Island. (Both shows I mainlined, once upon a time.)
