Well I've only got 3 picks left, so no more classic sitcoms.

Monk

 

[Justin_S]

AND THE BAND PLAYED ON (HBO movie)

 

[ChuckDeLa]

My round 8 pick is a show I always enjoy: Jeopardy.

I want to wrap this thing up, so we're going to do rounds 9 and 10 simultaneously. Everyone pick two shows this time around and then we'll get to the voting.

My round 9 pick is a bit obscure, but one I miss dearly: Night Flight. Four hours every weekend of cult movies, awesome music videos, short films and other strange and mysterious things. It was an awesome show.

For round 10, I wanted to get a TV movie, which I had boiled down to The Magic Flute or Sybil. Couldn't resist the opportunity to have a Bergman, so I choose The Magic Flute.

Back to Justin.

Boy, do I feel stupid. Somehow I missed Brian's Happy Days pick and hounded him to make another pick. So now he's got 9 picks when he should only have 8.

Brian, if you want to keep Monday Night Football as your 9th pick, then just pick one more show when your turn comes around. Otherwise, make two picks on your turn and I'll throw MNF off your list. Sorry about the confusion.

Boy, do I feel stupid. Somehow I missed Brian's Happy Days pick

Um, Chuck, Happy Days was my selection in Round 6, post #74.

You have it on Scott's list also.

 

[ChuckDeLa]

So now I feel extra stupid.

 

[ChuckDeLa]

Angelo has 4 more hours, then Erik's turn.

 

[Angelo.M]

finishing up my draft-down-memory-lane...

fat albert and the cosby kids
battle of the planets (aka, gotchaman)

 

[ChuckDeLa]

Nice, I was thinking of choosing BotP myself.

Erik PMed me his pick of Family Ties. Erik, if you're watching, we're doing rounds 9 and 10 now, so I need another pick.

I assume he PMed because he intends to be away for a while, so in the meantime, let's move on.

next (2 picks each):
Ric
Scott
Jan

still need 1 pick from Erik

 

[Ric Bagoly]

Finally...

WWF Monday Night Raw (oldschool)

ESPN Sportscenter

 

[ErikG]

With my last selection, I'll take Unsolved Mysteries

 

[Justin_S]

With my last selection, I'll take Unsolved Mysteries

Excellent pick! That was going to be my final pick, but I decided I needed a game show, so I picked my favorite show of that type. I didn't expect anyone else to take it. I love UNSOLVED MYSTERIES!

 

[ChuckDeLa]

Need 2 picks each from Scott and Jan at any time, then we can vote.

 

[Jan H]

Gotta go with the show I watch more regularly than any other, boring choice though it may be:

60 minutes

For my last pick, I'll take a guilty pleasure from the '80's:

L.A. Law

 

[ChuckDeLa]

While we wait for Scott, I guess we can start with the voting:

ChuckDeLa
Seinfeld
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Kids in the Hall
South Park
Beavis & Butthead
The Prisoner
The Young Ones
Jeopardy
Night Flight
The Magic Flute

vs.

24
Twin Peaks
The Beverly Hillbillies
Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction
Tales from the Darkside
Stephen King's The Stand
Alias
And the Band Played On
Millenium
The Price is Right

 

[ChuckDeLa]

I vote for me, but here's what I think of Justin's list:

24 - never seen it
Twin Peaks - excellent
The Beverly Hillbillies - not a fan
Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction - never seen it
Tales from the Darkside - never seen it
Stephen King's The Stand - wish they'd used better actors
Alias - my gf watches this... it's okay, I guess
And the Band Played On - never seen it
Millenium - never seen it
The Price is Right - I love game shows, but Price usually doesn't thrill me. I'm more of a Supermarket Sweep fan
