32. The Incredible Hulk (1978-1982): Following an experiment in gamma radiation, Dr. David Bruce Banner (Bill Bixby) finds himself inexplicably transformed into a giant green rampaging muscle man named the Hulk (Lou Ferrigno). Also he soon finds himself a fugitive on the run with little memory of what the monster inside him might or might not of done while being relentlessly pursued by an investigative reporter named Jack McGhee (Jack Colvin). It's basically a superhero style take on the Fugitive. Nevertheless  the show was frequently quite good with involving plots that had one sympathizing with Banner and his plight and marveling at the  unpredictable actions and feats of strength performed by the Creature. "Don't make me angry...you wouldn't like me when I'm angry". I adored this show as a kid. It completely fascinated me and was an enthralling drama for me back then. I still like it a lot now.

The best part of the finale is the final scene when they're in the cell.  The exact conversation they had is a reference to the first conversation they had in the first episode.  Good stuff.

33.) Beavis and Butt-head

One of the best animated shows I've seen.  Everyone thinks of it as a 'dumb kids show" but it created a bit of controversy.  No overall 'plot' or overlying storyarc to the series.  Just a glimpse into different days of their lives, as they go to school, watch MTV, and listen to music.  But one of the best shows of the MTV Generation.

It doesn't matter how many decades pass, everybody knows that the television show to top, the greatest yet, the best show ever seen is:
"I Love Lucy"

Agree that classic belongs on this list. Here's another:

36) The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952-1966): Following the adventures of the beloved Nelson family, this show dealt with realistic everyday happenstance and events foused on the somewhat quirky Ozzie and more steady wife Harriet as well as family growing pains as sons David and Ricky grew from teenagers into men with Ricky becoming a popular singing sensation and David joining a law firm. Kind of like a slice of wholesome Americana pie in its time, this show was still frequently quite , quite funny.

For maybe the 2nd greatest show in TV history, I have always felt the finale was under appreciated.


37. "Leave It To Beaver"... as bad as I thought it was growing up watching reruns, I cherish it now.

It's pretty badly under appreciated.  That show gave us like, 8 years of consistent quality.  It's not the best finale, but in quality with the rest of the show.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
