It’s tough picking one.

But that’s why I’m asking. It’s easy to do a top 3, even easier to a top 5.

But when you have to choose a singular show? When you’re forced to pare it down? What sticks above the others for you?

Babylon 5 for me.

It’s got plenty of issues but it’s still my darling and despite all the behind-the-scenes BS it’s still the best long-form sci-fi story I’ve seen onscreen.

Edit: Screwed up the title. Bad Dalacos.

    Party Down.

    Aside from the fact that it’s consistently well written and funny, it’s also very accurate in my experience. I used to work in hospitality/event catering when I was younger and we all had some kind of reason why we were temporarily working in the industry. No one gave a fuck except the manager/supervisor, who would always be extremely stressed and wishing everyone else would put in the same amount of effort as them.
