[arwalden]

3. Bonanza! Mmmmmm... Little Jo-o-o-o-oe... (Insert Homer Drooling Sounds!)

[Rowdyboy]

8. Damn you, Allen....you suddenly reappear and beat me to the best

answer again!!!!! You read my mind, such as it is.....

10. Obviously we both have a deep appreciation for good acting...

... and that adorable smile, and that V-shaped torso, and those tight-fitting pants.

4. The Avengers

Not very long over here but was on forever in England.

11. Stunning programme

Dame Diana Rigg as Mrs. Peel almost made me straight.

The plot-lines were so totally bizzare, and the relationship between Steed and Mrs. Peel was so ambiguous.

[Sanity Claws]

5. Seinfeld

That should qualify -- it was on about 7 years.

6. I'd say "The Simpsons"

but only for the syndicated re-runs. The program itself hasn't been funny in over 6 years and needs to be put to rest.

7. Sex and the City...

not long enough, though :(

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

9. M*A*S*H
