inspired by certain discussions i've been having...
Okay, if y'all could force all of your friends (define "force" however you want: emotional blackmail, actual blackmail, duct tape, guns, whatever) to watch certain shows, what would they be? Here are my top 10.
1. Friday Night Lights, because it is a work of art and will make you a better person. I know I am given to hyperbole, but when I say that it's a work of art, I mean that it is a work of art.
2. The last three seaons of Buffy. I mean, I guess you need to see the first four to really get why the last three are so important, but I really just love the last three and they're the ones I watch over and over lbr.
3. Coffee Prince, because I genuinely think everyone in the whole wide world would like it. It's so lovable.
4. Parks and Rec because of happiness.
5. Press Gang, because no one but
redsilverchains has seen it, and I have a lot of feelings I would work out in fic/flail form if there was a fandom for this show. Also: Lynda Day.
6. The Black Donnellys because best pilot ever and also heartbreaking brothers and Jenny Reilly is the best.
7. Designing Women because I'm pretty sure it's what made me a feminist. Also: best characters ever.
8. Miranda, because it is delightful and will make you all happy.
9. Shut Up! Flower Boy Band! because I want all the fic and I don't understand why there isn't a fandom.
10. The Good Wife, to convince you that it's possible for a lawyer show to be good. A lawyer show on one of the main networks, no less.
Play with me!

For me; Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, definitely. I feel like people watched it when it aired but it isn't one of those shows that stick around and IT SHOULD because it's the greatest.
Being Human, but I'd only tell certain people to watch it - it's not for everyone but it's not just another vampire show either!
Brideshead Revisited because dammit, I cannot be the only person with so many feelings about a seventies miniseries.
And Firefly because it's short and excellent and the concept of cowboys in space has to be seen to be understood.
Oh! and Luther! For people who like shades of grey, cute psychopaths, and Idris Elba. Which should be everyone I am friends with because if they don't appreciate at least one of those we have little in common ;)

Absolutely. I'm currently trying to convince the BFF to watch it.
