I took all the 90's shows I could think of that I ever actually cared about. Some I was a big fan of and some I just watched enough to know what the series was about. So I was wanting everyone to let me know which of these they liked best. And if they do not like any on the list, there is an 'other' option to let me know what you do care about if it is not on there. Tell me about what you think of the one you choose or want to mention that is not listed.

I picked "Lois & Clark" as my favorite 90's show. I have all 4 seasons on DVD and have actually seen all the episodes. It is one cool show. I recommend anybody interested in this type of genre to watch it. Dean Cain is the second best Superman actor of all (with the late Christopher Reeve being the best). There are several amazing things about this show that make it different from other Superman stories. H.G. Wells gets involved in some adventures and brings time-travel into it. Clark Kent decides to reveal his secret identity to Lois Lane in order for them to get married (and they happily are in the last season). Other Kryptonians who survived the explosion of Krypton come to Earth and discover they too can do what Superman can (as the bad ones abuse the superpowers and use them to gain control of Smallville and Metropolis). And the final episode ends with an unanswered question of both Lois and Clark finding a baby on their doorstep having no idea where it came from.

Three little words: Jean Luc Picard! Oh, I could give you a whole lot more words than that. I could tell you how as a Trek fan from way back I was thrilled with the resurrection of the series (and who would've guessed it would've turned into such a franchise?) Or, I could tell you I was happy to see the show finally starting to gain some (small) amount of respect from the industry as a whole, rather than simply being tossed aside as just so much weirdness. And, I could say that TNG in particular (and later, DSN) benefitted from some really good casting choices, and fairly consistently solid storytelling that made us care about the characters, the events they faced, and the choices they made. There was just an awful lot to like about this show, whether you came into it already labeled a Trekkie/er, or whether you discovered the Trek universe for the first time with this ship and crew; they were wonderful ambassadors. But, I suppose if you want to really cut it down to the simplest, most base terms possible, I could also say that JLP was something worth tuning in for every week, and that man could make it so anytime he wants. Oh, and btw, I know the show's listed here in the 90's group (it straddled the decades), but can you guys believe this year is TNG's 20th anniversay? Wow.

For anyone who has not actually seen the final episode of "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman", here is a link that shows how the series ended- www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4fENO5gZhUIt is the same thing I mentioned up above. I think that was meant to be a cliffhanger for a fifth season, but they did not make anymore episodes after that. There was supposed to be an explanation of that the following season premiere, but for some reason they decided just to have the show end that way instead.

Star Trek: TNG! Always enjoy watching Jean Luc and his Crew. I like all characters a lot, but my all-time favorite is Data. ;D
