Mmm . . . culty. . . .

So, TV Guide has released its list of the Top 30 Cult Shows of all time. Since I pride myself on being a) unique, and b) desperate to show others how unique I am by watching shows that other unique people watch, I thought I'd copy the list below and let you know how cool I am. Grey is watched for at least a season, while blue is watched for most or all of the entire run.

30) Strangers with Candy (1999-2000)
29) Absolutely Fabulous (1994-2003)
28) Stargate SG-1 (1997-2007)
27) H.R. Pufnstuf (1969-1971)
26) Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman (1975-1978)
25) Firefly (2002-2003)
24) Twin Peaks (1990-1991)
23) Dark Shadows (1966-1971)
22) Doctor Who (1963-present)
21) Freaks and Geeks (1999-2000)

20) The Avengers (1966-1969)
19) Quantum Leap (1989-1993)
18) Veronica Mars (2004-2007)
17) Beauty and the Beast (1987-1990)
16) Babylon 5 (1994-1998)
15) Family Guy (1999-present)
14) Battlestar Galactica (2003-present)
13) Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1989-1999)
12) Pee-Wee's Playhouse (1986-1991)
11) Jericho (2006-present)

10) Xena: Warrior Princess (1995-2001)
9) Twilight Zone (1959-1964)
8 ) The Simpsons (1989-present)
7) The Prisoner (1967-1968)
6) Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969-1974)
5) Lost (2004-present)
4) Farscape (1999-2003)
3) Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003)
2) The X-Files (1993-2002)
1) Star Trek (1966-1969)

Not too shabby, though the people that created this list should be ashamed of themselves for not finding a place for Futurama and Arrested Development. Come to think of it, Action and Grosse Pointe would have also made my list. But they're straight-up comedies, so maybe they're too chic to count.

    Ann Dorian,
    All is well in the universe since the true # 1 cult show is #1. No wannabees here.
