My pick coming...
By not taking it with my first pick, I'd somewhat come to terms with the fact that it wouldn't make it back to me. But, still... stings a little.
My pick coming...
"I may be soft in your palm but I'll soon grow
Hungry for a fight, and I will not let you win
My pretty mouth will frame the phrases that will
Disprove your faith in man"
-- "Fast As You Can," Fiona Apple
"Hey, boy, take a look at me
let me dirty up your mind"
-- "Queer," Garbage
"I saw weird stuff in that place last night. Weird, strange, sick, twisted, eerie, Godless, evil stuff. And I want in."
-- Homer Simpson
Taking this one a bit earlier than may be necessary, but I would really hate to lose it.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia - FX (2005-Present) -- Crude, completely un-PC, and easily one of the funniest things I've ever seen on television. In four seasons, I have yet to watch an episode that didn't at least once make me laugh until I cried. And, as with my first pick, I'm at the point of literally checking off the days until the new season begins. How I'll make it to September 17th I just don't know, especially with a promo like this to whet my appetite.

****! The only show left on my list that I felt desperate for. Really, really great. Only reason why I didn't pick it was that I lost a bit of interest in it, after the end of the third season. I never really could get into Carcetti and whole politics stufff and the same goes for the kids. Also I didn't really like the trifecta of Marlo, Chris and Snoop as villains, they were far too evil for me, at least the Barksdale crew had a relatable side to them. And I really couldn't watch anymore whenand the writers completely lost track of what they wanted to do with Kima (haven't completely watched the last season yet, so this might have changed then).
But these are just some personal grudges that made me pick Six Feet Under first. Objectively, The Wire's writing, acting, suspense and just its scope are on par, if not superior to SFU. Just an insanely good show.
BTW, the crowning moment of awesome in this series:

"If you trust in yourself...and believe in your dreams...and follow your star...you'll still get beaten by people who spent *their* time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy."
Just an FYI...Kingsgirl4 is at work and will be posting her pick as soon as she gets home.
SACRAMENTO KINGS - A Family Tradition - I Believe!
Why is the rum always gone? -- Cap'n Jack Sparrow
Thanks VF!
Since my favorite Monday night Hero is already gone (gee thanks VF!) I have decided to go with my second favorite "Hiro" since I don't want to chance losing it!!! There is nothing that I don't love about this show and I can not wait for the new season to start.
HEROES (2006-Present)
Then, now and always...GO KINGS!!!
SACRAMENTO KINGS - A Family Tradition
Wow, likely 2 of my top picks taken by the same person. In my eyes, your list couldn't be any better right now. Heroes is awesome
I was strongly considering Heroes with my next pick. Well done!
Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere - Carl Sagan
Im at the point where I dont know what to do with my picks. I have shows that I really really want but I think they'll still be around later. So I guess with this pick Im going Safe - I think If I dont take it now someone else will soon, so without further ado - With my second pick I select Family Guy
This show is quickly becoming a classic. Its so rediculous .... Just over the top comedy, its great. Family Guy and The Office on one Island? At least everyone will be in a good mood

MKF. I have a question for you. Have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard:
the bird is the word
And Jespher needs to get his eyes off of my adorably cute doctor wife and latina nurse girlfriend.

All your base are belong to us.
Nbrans [on the OJ Mayo trade]: It's funny, I think both teams actually got destroyed, which is what you'd expect with a McHale/Wallace trade.
dwyane wade went fourth, dwyane wade went fourth, dwyane wade went fourth... wait a minute, chris bosh went 4th. crap...
Dr.Cox: I became a doctor for the same four reasons that everybody does: chicks, money, power, and chicks.

law & order (1990 - ???)

i don't know what it is about this show, but if a snippet of it is even on tv i find myself sucked in for the remainder of the show.

So if I am following this right, the proper term for me to use here is jerk or double jerk right?First the Office, Now Family Guy.... AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
Then, now and always...GO KINGS!!!
SACRAMENTO KINGS - A Family Tradition
I believe it needs to continually ascend. The next should be Super Jerk!So if I am following this right, the proper term for me to use here is jerk or double jerk right?
A televisionary.
Following the Unreal video game rankings for "kills", those would be followed by what - Multi-jerk, Mega-jerk, Ultra-jerk, Unstoppable Jerk?
Jay Triano on Tyreke (3/1010): In the third quarter I thought we started to come back tonight then he just picked us apart. We can’t stop him with one guy. Their confidence was rolling so he kicks it out and they start making threes. He’s tough to guard.
Kim Hughes on Tyreke (2/28/10): He is a tremendous talent. The primary focus of our defense was to stop him. He is virtually impossible to guard one-on-one.
...then the colorful adjectives come in.
A televisionary.
