TV Shows Buffy People Like

I don't know if there's a lot of territory for discussion here, but I was just musing over something, and I thought I'd share some info on the chance somebody might be able to use it.

I've hung around Buffy message boards for awhile, and here's a list of the TV Shows I've seen pop up the most in conversations.

Charmed - This would be number 1 for consistency, longevity, and amount of discussion.

Recent would be Lost, Heroes, and the new Doctor Who.

Much discussion for periods of time then crickets - Gilmore Girls, Hex, and possibly Veronica Mars.

Popping up infrequently but sooner or later there it will be - Freaks and Geeks, and Wonderfalls

For what it's worth there's one fan's memories of shows that have been discussed noticeably with some frequency, or persistence over the years by Buffy people. Perhaps there's some DVD ideas there.

I guess I'm in the minority here.
Most of those shows I've never seen.

I do watch LOST although I'm bored with it.
I TRY and watch Charmed in the mornings, but it really does nothing for me.
I DO watch
CSI (all of them, but Miami just so I can laugh at David Caruso)
Law and Order (all of them)
The Closer and Saving Grace because I feel the need to support TNT, although I DO adore The Closer.
USA shows, The Dead Zone (apparently over), Psych, Monk, In Plain Site...I feel the need to support USA also.
Criminal Minds
Eli Stone
Medium
Chuck
Cold Case
Without A Trace
Big Bang Theory
HIMYM
Ghost Whisperer
Moonlight
Numbers
Bones
Terminator SCC
Super Nanny
Wife Swap
Suvivor (with the whole family at Mom and Dad's house on Thursdays, it's a thing, I can't explain it)
Plus, Forensic Files and all the GOOD real mystery shows like it. And, Animal Cops on Animal Planet.

big bang theory yay!
I can't help much but watch Charmed as it airs here on Mondays right between Eureka (love that one, it's splendidly weird!) and the Buffy-Angel block. But Charmed doesn't really work for me... sometimes even keep it running at very low volume and pull out a book until Buffy starts, or go cook me some dinner with it running in te background...

With Supernatural, I didn't really get into it either. Watched a couple of the first eps (loved the one with Amy Acker as a Guest Star, of course... especially since she had that bathtub scene :blushy: ) but it couldn't keep my attention, seemed too monster-of-the-weekish for me. Will this be another solid brick for the love-hate-relationship I have with Joyce here? 😀 (But hun, hope you know the balance is VEEERRRRYYYY tilted towards the L-side! 😉 )

Also like Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy and its spinoff Private Practice (yes, two of the three have a main character to fuel my by now probably well-known redhead fetish...). And of course, I was a diehard Trekkie back in the days when Trek hadn't yet turned into rubbish. :heart:: spock :: data ::heart:

I´m not saying you should watch all of Supernatural but if you have the chance you should check out the one with Amber.

Oh! Eureka! I love that show!
Hey, something is happening with my idea, this is cool.

Old Master III agrees: Uh, I think you'd better read over your post, luv. Methinks someone has more than schoolwork on their mind..... 😉 😛 😛

Lol, see that's what happens when you think of two shows at once, obviously I mixed Six Feet Under and Sex & The City 😀
 
I like C.S.I (Vegas), T:SCC, Chuck, and House. I've gotten kind of interested in Coupling and Not Going Out, but I keep forgetting they're on. 🙁
 
Besides Buffy and Angel, huh? I have a few:

Arrested Development.
The Office.
Heroes (I loved Season 1, but Season 2 was...ehhhh).
Daria.
South Park.

And oodles more that I can't remember. I want to watch Dr. Who because my friend is obsessed and David Tennant is yum, but I don't know where I can watch it! Also, if anyone has recommendations of good TV shows for me to watch, tell me; as long as they're not a soap opera, drama, or cheesy teen show, I'll probably like it.

PS: No, do not request Charmed! I've tried watching it, I really have, and I can't stand it. I just can't bring myself to like it.

I agree, Heroes season one was genius. Season two... big sophomore slump. Probably influenced by the writer's strike though.
All right,my turn:

Current:

House,Battlestar Galactica,Doctor Who,Torchwood,Bones,Friday Night Lights(if I could include news shows,I'd add Countdown with Keith Olbermann)

All-time:

The Equalizer,Babylon 5,Power Rangers(some seasons more than others),Red Dwarf

smoke me a kipper i'll be home for breakfast ( BSG BSG BSG )
I like Lost, Heroes, How I Met Your Mother, Wonderfalls, The 4400, and a few others that a lot of others here also seem to like. However, I'm lonely in my love for The Pretender.

And I just found out that DDD enjoys Murder, She Wrote, so I'm not alone in the love for that, yippee!
 
Heroes, Doctor Who, Veronica Mars, Supernatural, One Tree Hill, Spaced, How I Met Your Mother. Oh and I still occasionally watch Friends 😉 That's about all I watch other than BtVS and Angel.

I love sex feet under it made me understand death more , helped me through alot of things but yeh a fantastic show x

SFU might be, quality wise, the best TV show I've ever seen
Apart from Buffy and Angel I watch;

Charmed
Power Rangers
Suite Life of Zack and Cody
Hannah Montanna
Smallville
Doctor Who
Ben 10
The Simpsons
Sometimes I watch Family Guy.
Tom and Jerry
Firefly
Scooby Doo
 
Just an FYI - you guys listed a total of 129 shows would you believe - not including those who mentioned Buffy & Angel. 😉
 
I'll make it 130 - Viva S Club. Yes S Club 7 made their own TV show and yes I watched it. I am not embarressed. I used to love S Club and all of their shows. Leave me alone.
 
Let's see...I'm fairly certain most of mine have already been mentioned, but:

Firefly (duh.)
Arrested Development (funniest show ever.)
The Office (US version)
Heroes (like Yam Sham said, first season was great, second season wasn't.)
How I Met Your Mother (I still haven't watched a lot of episodes, but I really love what I've seen!)

And I don't see what the huge appeal is with Charmed. I've seen the first season, and it had its moments, but overall, it's not very good. The acting is mediocre, the characters are two-dimensional, the writing is just lousy...I suppose what I'm trying to say is that Charmed is mindless. I especially hate how everyone thinks you'll love it if you love Buffy just because the genres are similar.

I agree. Charmed can be funny at times, but overall I'd much rather watch something else.

DarkAvenger
you have to watch all the episodes of HIMYM. i've seen all the episodes and it's soooo awesome!! :D i'm really looking forward to the new season (season 4) because the last episode was like: =O
Here's another one you can add to my list: Penn & Teller: Bull****!

I find myself agreeing with it most of the time...and the rest...well,it cheeses me off. (palabra might like the show,because it approaches subjects from a libertarian point of view.)

If you haven't seen it yet,do. But be warned Penn has quite the potty mouth-not only because it's on pay cable,but so as to ensure the show doesn't get sued for what it says.
 
Other than Buffy and Angel ...

House
Law and Order: SVU
Law and Order: CI
NCIS
Heroes
Star Trek (All)
Charmed (After Pru got up and left!)
Sabrina the Teenage Witch (shhh .. don't judge me! lol)
Firefly
Alias
Lost
How I Met Your Mother

I'm sure there's more but I can't think of them right now ... I likes my Teevee...

Now THAT is some HAIR! I'm not sure if I should be amazed and in awe or just say EEWW. It looks too much like my parent's chow when she REALLY needs a shave!
Well apart from the obvious (Buffy and Angel) the stuff the other TV shows I like are:

The OC
E.R - The earlier seasons...the new stuff is rubbish.
Numb3rs
CSI: Vegas
Top Gear
Doctor Who - *fans self* David Tennant is just hot 😀
Scrubs
Bones

They're all I can think of right now.
