I think I'm probably going to end up watching all of them, but sounds like Doctor Who is first up =)
And ah, I had heard of the Bedchel test, just not the name for it. Thanks!!
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Occasionally Doctor Who does stuff that causes my suspension of disbelief to be unsuspended. Like, say, aliens with heads that look just like rhinos?
But I've gotten better at letting stuff like that bug me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If it only happens occasionally, you don't watch enough. Then watch more, and it stops. It's the path...

I've seen the first season of Supernatural but then I got bored. I hear things picked up, so I'm not sure why I never jumped back in.
I have not seen Farscape, but it is ALSO on my list of Shows To Watch. It is getting very long. Sell Farscape to me, Frankenbuddha! All these things are on Netflix Instant Watch and so I have a wealth of possibilities.

Yeah, that's what happened. During "The Pandorica Opens," I was sorta' like, "Ooh - the rhino aliens are here too!"

I marathoned BSG once. Never again.
Oh you poor dear.
Wow.

it didn't become must watch tv for me until season two. so i get that.
I have not seen Farscape, but it is ALSO on my list of Shows To Watch.
woo, boy! i watched all four season of Farscape in a 30 day period. pretty sure i overdosed on the cracktastic awesomeness of it. i really need to do a re-watch now that i own the boxset. if you like two lead characters who have phenomenal chemistry, puppets, fish out of water tales, it's definitely for you. John Crichton remains one of my very favorite fictional characters ever.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
It took me a bit to get onboard the Farscape train, but I just love it.
The movie has some hand-wavium going on, but I'm satisfied with it as a conclusion to the series. I feel like all the work I put in as a viewer was rewarded with Farscape. Unlike attlestar-Bay Alatica-Gay.

Gah. Farscape sounds great too.
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH GREAT TELEVISION?
I don't have time for all this! I so wish I did.
