Shows that Start w/Stats

The 'Shows that Start with' Series is complete (#'s now included). The purpose of this annoying series was to overwhelm myself with the guilt of wasted hours. It worked. It turns out, there are ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-TWO shows that I have watched more than twice! Pretty crazy! Thankfully, over the year, as I typed up these posts, I drastically cut back on the amount of TV I watch. Nowadays, I only watch 2 shows each week (Lost & Gilmore Girls). In any case, looking back, here are the shows that are in my TV show Hall of Fame:

A+
01. Seinfeld- My clear-cut all-time favorite. Class of its own
A
02. Frasier- Very clever humor. I am collecting the DVD's
03. Simpsons- So many seasons, many great episodes
04. Dick Van Dyke- Super funny. Pretty girl. Great show
A-
05. Star Trek TNG- Best Sci-fi show of all time
06. Gilmore Girls- Quick & intelligent comedy
07. All in the Family- Politically incorrect. Classic comedy
08. Cheers- Great cast. Tons of good episodes
09. Friends- Most dependant on one-liners, but plenty of them
10. Lost- Could jeopardize HOF status in coming seasons
11. American Idol- Starts funny, ends with talent. Good combo
12. Quantum Leap- 2nd best Sci-fi show of all time
13. Little House on the Prarie- Some good lessons can be learned

Shows that Start with #'s

Below are all the shows that start with a # that I have watched more than twice. Why? Who knows

2 Guys a Girl and a Pizza Place- I liked it
7th Heaven- In my opinion, the worst show on my list

Hermenuts!

Many people have trouble interpreting the prophecies of Daniel, but I have found hermeneutical gold at worldends.co.uk. Alistair (who believes himself to be the Archangel Michael) provides some 'classic' exegesis of Daniel 7 in the following paragraph.

The fourth beast is a dinosaur. A dinosaur was a large reptile (like Satan) and became extinct by asteroid. However, some smaller dinosaur species survived and became birds (angels). So if you're sin is big you get destroyed, but if it is only little, then you can become an angel. The UK is shaped a lot like a T-rex. The iron teeth are probably the industrial revolution and the continuous seeking of knowledge. The 10 horns represent the 10 commandments, the three that fall are the trinity – true religion being thrown to the ground. The “breaking in pieces” refers to the fracturing and weakening of the church into denominations. The one horn is probably me! I'm speaking some great things to convert Christians

I can't wait to read some more of his articles!
