26 Cult TV Shows

Anyone that knows me knows that I love lists.  And this one I found on EW is definitely a good one.  And I'm a lover of cult television shows.  So that's two good things from this list.  And I'm definitely a fan of some of these shows, but there are quite a few I haven't seen yet.

26.  Pushing Daisies - This was my first official introduction to Kristen Chenoweth.  And I absolutely fell in love with her. Oh, and there's Jim Dale, the narrator of the Harry Potter books on tape, which are awesome.  And the thing about this show is that it was on ABC when it probably should have been on HBO or Showtime with how much detail and special effects there were.

25.  Archer (2009-present)

24.  Better Off Ted (2009-10)

23.  Farscape (1993-2003)

22.  Party Down (2009-10)

21.  Popular (1999-2001) - I actually remember watching this show, and wondering what happened to it.  IT seemed like a good enough cult comedy about outcasts.  It just didn't last.

20.  Supernatural (2005-present) - This has been on my to-watch list for awhile.  Especially since my favorite Buffy alums (James Marsters and Charisma Carpenter) feature in a few episodes.

19.  Wonder Showzen (2005-06)

18.  Fringe (2008-present) - This is another one on my to-watch list.  Mostly because I watched and loved the first season, while everyone else (that I knew) berated the show and condemned it for its Friday night time slot.

17.  Undeclared (2001-02)

16.  Community (2009-present) - First season was awesome, and then it was downhill.  There were a few good standalone episodes, but I'm waiting for it to get back to the nitty gritty of the first episodes.

15.  Battlestar Galactica (2004-09)

14.  Veronica Mars (2004-06) - Talk about dead before its time.  LOVE Veronica Mars.  And Kristen Bell just makes it that much more awesome.

13.  Twin Peaks (1990-91)

12.  Firefly (2002) - Best. Show. Ever.  Crappy theme song.  And it's a work of Joss Whedon, so that should say enough.  This failed show got a movie made.  And ten years later the most awesome reunion ever.

11.  Lost (2004-10)

10.  My So-Called Life (1994-95)  I watched this in reruns on MTV when it aired.  Usually in marathon form.  Because who doesn't love moody Claire Danes...?

9.  The Comeback (2005)

8.  Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987-94)

7.  It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (2005-present)

6.  The Wire (2002-08)

5.  The X-Files (1993-2002)

4.  Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988, 1989-91)

3.  Arrested Development (2003-06, 2013)

2.  Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2001, 2001-03)  This is MY number one show.  Of all time.  Ever.  And it's a work of Joss.  So that makes it so much more awesome.  This show marks the beginning of my obsession with TV.  Thank you Joss Whedon for throwing fuel on the fire.

1.  Doctor Who - Always the top of these cult lists.  The show has had one tangled, twisty, lengthy 49 year history.
