Non of my friends have heard of Invader Zim, which angers me.

Wow, Invader Zim has it's own little cult over here.

Yes, it does. And that is one of my favorite parts of the Escapist.

Lol, I have a friend who has memorized almost everything that Gir has said, she often quotes him at random.

I'd do that, but my friends would just sit there with a dumb look on there face. I even have a shirt with him on it.


"WAFFLES"

We just laugh at her, cause we know what she's talking about, then we start to spout off our own quotes...cause we're cool like that. Oh, she would kill you for that shirt, I bought her a plushie last time I went to Chicago and she knocked my ass over.

I'd kill to have her as a friend.

But she's the one and only Hayley-chan...also you'd have to have a high tolerance for fangirling over Kyouya from Ouran...thankfully I have this tolerance and I also fangirl with her.

I have a friend like this. He is a huge fan of the office and of Halo 3. To hang out with him, you have to have a really high tolerance to bad jokes and arguments. I'm the only one thst has this.

Awesome, I could tolerate him...I have a boyfriend. lol.

Lol. He wins all of the arguments, only because he can put me in a arm lock.

My bf would like to think that wins all the arguments, but he has to admit that I do, cause I threaten to not buy him a PSN card or that new game he wants...works everytime!

You would Also win in a argument everytme against me apparently.

I just got mad skills like that...

It's pretty apparent that you do.

My bf just calls it the evil ways of women...

That is just too funny.

I get's funnier, cause he says that to me whenever our friends are around, and the majority of our friends are girls...many raised eyebrows.

either your bf is oblivious, are a comidic mastermind. It's your call.

I say oblivious, it took almost a whole year to realize that he liked me and it took him 6 years to admit that he had a crush on one of his friends.

Wow, 6 years? Is there a record for something like that?

I really don't know, but there probably is somewhere...lemme check the internet...it has all the answers.

Well, not all the answers. Get to specific, and You can get some weird things.

Yeah, I found that side of the internet before.../shivers/

 

[Akai Shizuku]

I absolutely loved Cybersix and Megas XLR.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

Quick question to Americans, do you find UK shows inpenetrable and in need of subtitles?

no,although I'm technically not american.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

I'm gonna go with the thin blue line I'm not sure how popular it was but it only got two seasons which for me was not enough.

 

[ragamuffingirl]

The Mighty Boosh, I would say. Up until it came to Adult Swim.

I love The Mighty Boosh. Howard Moon is my hero.

 

[xXGeckoXx]

Firefly, one of the best Sci-fi series I've ever seen. So many peope I know haven't ever heard of it, and yet every person I show it to seems to end up loving it. Seriously underrated I think.

Red dwarf
RED DWARF

[Bored Tomatoe]

Home Movies. Awesome awesome show.

 

[Synonymous]

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.: Starred Bruce Campbell, which is probably all some of you need to know about it. About a bounty hunter out to catch the 13 outlaws who murdered his father, it was a western sci-fi adventure comedy yserial, and it actually handled all of those genres brilliantly. It was most identifiable as a comedy and wesatern adventure - not in a hokey (enjoyable, but hokey) Xena/Hercules sense, but in a witty, rip-roaring, well-produced sense. Starred some very funny (yet dramatically capable) people in nearly every role - even the freaking horse was funny. The type of high-spirited, happy adventure I wish they still made.

Brimstone: The spirit of a cop is out to catch 113 souls who've escaped Hell; in return, he'll supposedly get a reprieve from Hell himself and a second chance at life. Like Reaper, but serious and about 15 times better. It had John Glover as Satan. It also, oddly, took its Catholic morality and philosophy more seriously than just about any other show on TV at the time, with a Satan frighteningly fair and just, like no one would ever really want Satan to be.

Eerie, Indiana: Live-action kids' show back in the early '90's. Kind of tough to explain without making it sound cliche; if I described it as "two kids discover that their town is the center of weirdness for the entire planet", would you want to watch? The charm was in the execution, in the charming-kooky mood, the sweetly witty plotting, the performances of the two leads, and the utterly insane premises, one of them being one of the protagonists refusing to set his clock back for Daylight Savings Time and consequently getting trapped in the Lost Hour of Time between.

Andy Barker, P.I.: Comedy-mystery series starring Andy Richter as an accountant turned private investigator. Imagine the Conan O'Brien show as a half-hour P.I. program. Had Harve Presnell in a good supporting role as kickass senior-citizen P.I.; he passed away recently, sadly.

 

[ShotgunSmoke]

The Wire. Superb series, one of the best TV shows I've ever seen, along with The Sopranos.

Some of the stuff I find need more than just a shiver.

Well, I was on 7 chan recently and /b/ scared me. It was flashing bright colors and had falling penises

I'm just glad I've avoided #chan and /b/ in general. I've heard so much bad things about it.

You are one smart man...I only go onto 7chan these days to look for flash games and videos.

 

[Clirck]

Have you noticed how far off-topic we've gotten? It went from Invader Zim, to Arguments, to 7chan. It's pretty weird.

Yeah, I noticed...that tends to happen with me some times.

 

[Insanum]

Heavy Gear. CGI progam on Fox Kids in the UK.

Twas Immense.
