My Mom’s Top 10 Shows

July 1st, 2008
My mom is too cool. I’ve been whining to her about BSG for months now. She never wanted to watch it because it’s a ’space show’ and she automatically thinks they’re all cheesy. She caught me watching ‘Resistance’ two weeks ago and liked it. So now she finally gave in and watched the Miniseries (1/2, we’ll finish it tomorrow. Fucking long thing X_X) and at the end of it she said ‘it’s better than Lost’ =O

Hah, anyway. She has started watching many other shows before. and I asked her which are the shows she has liked the most.

Here’s mah mommehz top 10. We have similar taste, she even dislikes comedies. More than me.

10: The X-Files (1993-2002)

She watched every episode up to ‘Tithonus’. But then she got a little difficult about it, she didn’t like the amount of MOTW episodes. and she doesn’t like the comedy episodes (not even Bad Blood :x). But eventually, I convinced her to watch the rest of the show, only a little bit out of order. She has seen every single Mytholoy episode except for Season 9 (minus William & The Truth) and some fillers. She thinks the show is great, but has a lot of ’stinky’ episodes (Her most hated episode was hands down ‘Chinga’).
Favorite Character: Fox Mulder
Favorite Episode: Anasazi/Paper Clip

09: Big Love (2006-???)

When I first got her into it, she didn’t like it so much because there was too much sex. But as time went on, it really grew on her. She’s not like ‘omfgz iz luvz tahz sho!’ but she definitely likes it a lot.
Favorite Character: Barbera Henrickson
Favorite Episode: The Ceremony

08: Angel (1999-2004)

Although she did complain about season 1 and 5. She didn’t complain as much as during Buffy, and she liked most of the characters. She definitely grew to love the show as it went on and she kept talking to me about it when she finally finished it.
Favorite Character: Wesley Wyndam-Pryce
Favorite Episode: Sleep Tight/Not Fade Away

07: The Sopranos (1999-2007)

We watched until mid-Season 2 together. I wasn’t really in the mood to rewatch it, but we will watch the rest of it one day. She liked the Mafia Storyline a lot (she’s a fan of the Godfather movies).
Favorite Character: Janice Soprano (son far)
Favorite Episode: I Dream Of Jeannie Cusamano

06: Lost (2004-???)

She complained a little this season because there wasn’t enough character development for her. but she loved the first three seasons a lot. Especially end-Season 3.
Favorite Character: Sayid Jerrah
Favorite Episode: The Man Behind The Curtain/There’s No Place Like Home

05: Freaks & Geeks (1999-2000)

It was a pleasant surprise to see how much she liked this show. She says she could identify with most characters, and she actually laughed =O. Comedies usually just annoy her unless they are realistic like this.
Favorite Character:
Lindsey Weir
Favorite Episode:
The Pilot (we discussed it for like two hours)

04: Everwood (2002-2006)

As much as I love it, I don’t love it as much as her. She has only seen the first two seasons and wants me to show her the rest of the series. She likes Ephram a lot X_X.
Favorite Character:
Andy Brown
Favorite Episode:
Home

03: Dexter (2006-???)

Whoo, she rocks for loving Dexter. It’s her favorite show on tv and she really looks forward to watching it and occasionally asks me when it’s coming back again.
Favorite Character:
Dexter Morgan
Favorite Episode:
Resistance Is Futile

02: Deadwood (2004-2006)

She used to bash it because she thought it was too violent. Somehow, I convinced her to watch it when I got the Dvds and she ended up loving it. She even said a couple of times that it was her favorite show. She liked the intensity and the great actors. She even loved the third Season which i found to be a bit disappointing.
Favorite Character: Seth Bullock/Alma Garret/Sol Star (She really loved most of them)
Favorite Episode:
The Boy The Earth Talks To

01: Six Feet Under (2000-2005)

We both still have it as favorite. It’s kind of like ‘our show’. We recently rewatched the fifth season and she shed a few tears here and there. I love how much my mom got emotionally invested into the storylines and even told me a lot about her life while watching it (like, after watching ‘That’s My Dog’).
Favorite Character: Brenda Chenowith
Favorite Episode:
Everybody’s Waiting

    The X-Files: Woo! :D

    Angel: Obviously can’t say much, since I haven’t seen it, and only just started watching Buffy. But I do like him from what little I’ve seen of him. I think I’ll end up liking this more than Buffy.

    Lost: Woo! :D I understand why she don’t like it as much this season as previous seasons, even though I do disagree. It was definitely a different season than previous ones. More of an “advance the storyline” season than a “develop the characters” season.

    Dexter: Love it. Both seasons are great in their own way. I love how the series revolves around Dexter, even though the other characters are great as well. I love seeing him killing, him investigating the murders, him with his friends and family. That’s what I love about the series, seeing the different sides of Dexter.

    Six Feet Under: Haven’t seen that much of it, but seen enough to have an opinion. I think it’s a very good show, although I wouldn’t say I like it that much. I like a lot of the other show I’ve gotten into recently more than it. >.> That might change with future seasons though, depending on where they take the series. But it is a good show, with a nice mix of drama and comedy.
