The Simpsons - I don't ever pick favorites, but this is it. It is almost impossible to overstate how much that show has inundated my life. However, the new episodes make me sad.
Twin Peaks - The show had it's doldrums (middle of the second season), but I love the hell out of it.
Newsradio - Before Phil Hartman died it was probably the most consistently funny sitcom.
I could list a lot more, but let's go with these.
I watched the UNTOUCHABLES movie last night...and thought 'Dam!" ! I loved the old UNTOUCHABLES reuns as a kid!
I love Walter Winchell's narration!!!

The Screen Savers - old TechTV/ZDTV show. It's where I've learned most of what I know about technology. It transformed into the terrible "Attack Of The Show" when G4 murdered TechTV.

Seinfeld
Arrested Development - Highly overlooked
