So, I imagine you have noticed that there are a lot of threads deriding near anything that is popular, bemoaning the fact that something else isn't as popular, and it does all get rather negative. So come on people, let's put a happy spin on things!


So I suppose I should start us off then.

Glee.
I love it. I reckon it's funny, quite sweet, and I really like the music. I imagine there's a lot of you who would disagree with me. Go ahead. Disagree. But should you decide that you have to inform me of this fact, keep it out of the thread unless you intend to be civil. No name calling, etc. It'll bring the mood down. This thread is meant to be happy.

Oh, and should anyone decide to point out that "Not everyone like Glee, yackity yack googly moogly", yes, I know. Well done you, whatever. I named the thread to be similar to your standard, "Something you like/hate that everyone hates/likes." Just pick something popular that you like.

And for anyone who decides to ask "Why do I have to pick something popular?", you don't. Unless, that is, you decide to post in this thread, in which case, I would appreciate it if you did. If not, go find one of the many, many threads that exist on the Escapist that will cater to your needs.

I like how in the Glee picture everyone but the girl in the top center is proclaiming themselves losers.

Fire fly. That show is amazing. I've yet to meet anyone who has seen it and disliked it.

Well yeah. But she start's as a bit of a *****. Let's see how far the character development will take her away.

Also, as an afterthought, NO SPOILERS! Please, some people (like me) may be British, and be further behind the show schedule than others.

Strangely enough - I own the series, but I've never seen a second of it.
[sub]Yay impulsive purchases![/sub]

OT: Futurama.
My general thesis of this site is that everyone and their mother seems to like it, as do I.

Glee. Is. Awesome.
There are a few other shows I like that everyone else does, nothing wrong with that. Now, a show I wished everyone would like because I'm afraid it will be canceled... Community. Abed is my hero.

*Clap, clap, clap* That was brave sir. I'm inclined to think that both are OK, and I hope my fellow members are civil to you.

I realise that there is nothing wrong with it. I was just looking for some happiness. Also, what is Community about? I've never heard of it before

Half-Life and Gmod. As for Portal, I've actually heard people who hate it.

The lord of the ring books. Heard some rumors about people hating the films, but never ever a bad word about the books.

No matter how much I may gripe about the principle behind Nickelback's Dark Horse (Sex+booze+S.E.X.=money), I still like quite a few of those songs as midday radio listening.

What what what?!? Have I possibly intrigued another television viewer? Ahem, let's see, I don't want to screw this up...
Community is about Community College. The main guy (Joel McHale from The Soup) is a lawyer who finds out his degree from Columbia (the country, not the prestigious university) isn't legit. He starts this Spanish study group with a bunch of misfit outcast types. The show follows this group. It's funny in a quirky kind of way, like Glee, only without the singing and the people are a little older. Abed's lines are priceless. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqEl_3o094c]

And I'm all about the happiness! Enough with the hate! My comment wasn't aimed at you per say, just a statement affirming the fact that I feel no shame in liking something popular. :)
