I am not a Trekkie, Slider or Lost fan and Battlestar Galatica was ruined in the remake. Andromeda, Lexx and Stargate did the plots to death, old british stuff like Dr Who and Blake Seven did occur to me but are not on my must watch list. Here are only things that I would watch again and again and ........ In between Sci Fi you have to have a break so some other stuff I watch as well

Hardly chronological, but a list of 100 TV shows I remember watching from being born in 1957 and growing up through the 60's and early 70's

Game of Thrones (2011)
Having read all the books, I was expecting great things from this series and HBO have done it well.

We should all be thankful that SyFy did not attempt this. From the start this was always going to be a very difficult series to move from page to whatever it is that they record films on these days! Having watched the first two episodes, it is loyal to the book, no doubt due to George RR Martin acting as a consultant. It will be pacey because the books are so vivid and descriptive. Those that have not read the books may well wonder what is going on and actually be inspired to read them. A very gritty HBO drama with the usual gratuitous nudity, but hey! Thats what we wanted isn't it? The casting of Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister is inspired and he plays the part brilliantly. Thoroughly enjoyable and I look forward to the next episode.
