Your favorite series ever

[Souplex]

Some series simply are better than everything else in their medium. This thread is dedicated to those series.
It could be a book, movie, tv, or video game series.

The rules:
1. In order to qualify as a series it must have at least 2 installments.
2. For TV shows seasons count as an installment.

That said lets get postin', gimme' your two cents!

For series that need to die http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.76506

I am filled with a sense of impending doom.

With that, I leave my two cents, consisting of the US version of The Office, and proceed to get the heck out of dodge before the flames start flying. Ta.

1. In order to qualify as a series it must have at least 2 installments.

Why? What makes a drawn out overstaying-its-welcome show somehow more valid to your thread than a show which stops at a reasonable and altogether "right" time rather than dragging a second series through the mud that was its fans expectations?

Didd'nt Nilcypher say just earlier today that he's not fond of threads with "Best" in the title?

Just something to think about

 

[Corven]

Both the Dark Tower series and the Otherland series are very good.

Onimusha. Even the fighting game wasn't all that bad. Most consistently good game series to my mind.

One of the mods. You do know what the mods are right?

I treat mods like a vengeful but lazy god. If you don't actively tick em off ya' won't get smote.

As for the thing with best evers, I always thought that the "In your opinion" aspect was kinda' assumed.

 

[Drift-Bus]

Without a doubt Garth Merenghi's Dark Place, however it was cut down beofre it's prime only being allowed on season, AND NOW YOU WON'T EVEN LET ME ENTER IT IN THIS THREAD OFFICALLY

 

[Bulletinmybrain]

Generation Kill miniseries. Pure excellence.

 

[Tattaglia]

Samurai Pizza Cats.
Who do you call when you want the pepperoni? Samurai Pizza Cats!

 

[Corven]

For my T.V. series:
Monty Python's Flying Circus, MST3K, Ghost Hunters, Myth Busters, and more that I can't think of at the moment.

 

[Chiasm]

One of the best I think was, Deadwood. Such a shame it got canceled.

 

[gantzsurvivor1]

Game: Resident Evil
T.V.: South Park
Book: Eragon
Movie: Rocky

 

[Kuweekee]

Game: Blood Omen
T.V.: House
Book: Sword of Truth
Movie: Lord of the rings

 

[RAWKSTAR]

The Rocky Movies for sure,
Rambo is a close second though.

 

[Dahemo]

Debbie Does series

Am I allowed to say that?

Yes. You can even swear on the internet. Your mum probably won't see it.

My vote to the classic Thomas Covenant novel series by Steven Donaldson. Geeky I know but still epic and a great read

 

[fedpayne]

The Simpsons. Honestly, can't believe nobody's mentioned it yet, and if someone says it whilst I'm writing this I swear I will open up a new account on a friend's computer and RICKROLL the shit out of all of you. I know that it's gone downhill. But still. To be that consistently good for that length of time, right when I was growing up. Well. That is just swell.

Although it's never made me cry. Futurama has. And got me misty on another occasion.

Pure comedy? Arrested Development.

Game series? Max Payne.

Books? Philip Marlowe series.

Film series? Ack, I've got an essay to do. Just not Harry Potter.

 

[rottenbutter]

The Evil Dead series. Oh Bruce Campbell, how I worship you.
