psammead pointed out on my journal that this list is extremely biased toward the last 15 years. Which sucks. :(

I would have said, last five years.

I liked Quantum Leap a lot when I was younger. I still have a fondness for it after rewatching with an older perspective. But I don't think it rates in the top 50. Maybe the mid 90s.

More to the point... what the hell is 24 even doing on the list?

And with all those foreign shows on the list, I want to know why Sabado Gigante or the original, Spanish-language Ugly Betty aren't on the list.
