At the risk of inciting our own drama, I'd like to submit that Firefly is overrated. I'd say the same thing about Battlestar but that will get me stabbed.

Do track down Twin Peaks. I just finished season 1 and was left begging for the second season. It's the most...surreal and dark but strangely humorous at times series I have ever seen.
I think you've managed to make some of us feel old, brenn... cos I'm guessing you didn't see it the first time round, cos you're too young...?
but yes... it was certainly one of the most intriguingly different tv series of its time. but then... that's david lynch in general, really.

OK...I've since perused my dvd collection.
Firefly, of course
La Femme Nikita
Farscape
Beauty and the Beast (from the 80's)
Highlander the series (gift)
and one I *need* to get because it is literally like Tim Burten had a love child with Dr. Suess
Pushing Daisies
I can't believe I forgot that show but I so adore it.

Oh, goodness...that was the one with Lara Flynn Boyle before she became a twig, wasn't it? Twin Peaks, I mean...of course. I watched it, for a while...but, at the time, I wasn't too into tv...was too busy going out and getting into trouble...I mean, selling Girl Scout cookies...yeah, that's it!!!

I'm completely over my Heroes obsession due to the entirely lame and crappy second season.
I LOVE Dexter though, and have just recently gotten into Torchwood which I can tell is an obsession in the making. I'm kind of surprised no-one here has mentioned it, actually.
The only TV shows I have on DVD are all seven seasons of Buffy and Justice League.
And yeah, Pele, Pushing Daisies is a sweet show. Can't wait for it to come back!

(pssst, Khan. No one's mentioned Torchwood cause though it kicks booty, it's British  )
I agree too with Heroes second season. We stopped watching it a few episodes in because of the wide spread lame.
Did you know Pushing Daisies almost didn't survive the whole strike thing? Of all the crap that lives, this one needs to keep going, so long as it doesn't turn lame too!

Firefly is awesome.
Firefly news:
The character who played the pilot Wash, I forget his name, has confirmed that he and Joss Whedon are working ona new firefly project. Although considering last time we saw Wash he wasn't too healthy, so who knows what it'll be.
And yeh Pele is right there is a comic inbetween the series and film, check it out, its called 'Those Left Behind'
AWESOME SHOW
I also like, Battlestar Galactica, Lost and Prison Break

ohhhhhhh... don't tell me that...!! well, I'm glad you did, to avoid disappointment, but... I got totally addicted to heroes after downloading and watching the first season in pretty quick succession. I've now got the distinct impression I've completely wasted my time and bandwidth downloading the 2nd, as yet unwatched, season... *sigh*
ahhh, well... the first season stood on its own; although I found the final episode of that kinda weak too... actually, after all build up, very, VERY weak.

Well, it did come out in 1990-1991... and I would have been just starting primary school 
It was one of those series for years afterwards people had raved about, and 18 years later I finally get hold of it. Just as well I saw it now and not at 6...would have been quite impressionable

*giggle*...and I'd already had Joe and was feeding people's vanities for a living...and going out and getting in trouble...my years in the heavy metal clubs...the only TV I watched was late at night...was during that time that I got interested in Highlander, I believe...came on at 11:30...after the news...I think...my memory isn't what it used to be...too much herbal happiness during those years...

I tried to watch Firefly, Will assured me it was 'awesome'. It was complete and utter drivel.
If others like it, great, but don't say it's awesome when it plainly isn't!! 
Kate, fancy watching 24 with me?

See it. SRSLY.

Wow...for anyone that watches the original CSI:...the newest one will blow your mind...I kind of figured something of the sort was gonna happen...I won't spoil it...but damn!!! Now that's probably the end of the season...have to wait forever to find out what happens...

I saw Twin Peaks and the movie when it first came out, and remember walking away scratching my head.
Does it have David Duchovny fif?
Oh!oh!oh!oh!oh!oh!
If you have a penchant for odd, Dusty, gritty 1940's, travelling carnivals you will want to watch Carnivale
I completely forgot about how obsessed with it I was.
