Walking Dead is pretty much up there. Big Bang, Breaking Bad, anime is good.
What about Supernatural? A friend pointed out to me that it's stupid for me to hold such skeptic beliefs about religion and find amusement in a show that deals with demons, monsters, gods etc. I told him that I do find these stories and concepts very interesting and I myself have written fantasy stories about topics like these but as much as I like the fantasy I can't bring myself to actually believe it.
Any comments?

Re: Favourite TV Shows?
I think it's strange to think that skepticism must apply to amusement (except when pointing out plot holes and things like that). There is a lot of amusement created around fairy tales that is just great, why should we reject it? (theists also don't believe in those stories) I see amusement as a temporary decoupling of reality to enjoy yourself, and I don't see what's wrong with that.HarvesterofSorrow wrote:What about Supernatural?

Re: Favourite TV Shows?
Thanks for the link. It helped me understand the point of view of someone that might think atheists must hate gods or religion. Just comes to show the poor understanding many theists have towards a lack of belief.We have a topic on this subject here, where you can discuss it further:

If any of you watch (or have partly watched) any of these TV series, what do you think of them? If I start watching any more TV series that I like then I'll mention them as well.

Re: Favourite TV Shows?
I pretty much watch only one show now, and it's South Park, and even then, I'd rather be playing video games or reading a book. TV for me has gotten quite dull. I mean, I never watch any live action shows, no anime (except for Cory in The House), sometimes science documentaries, and nothing else. I always found live action shows in particular boring, but that's just me.
