I've never been much of a television girl.

The most enthralled I've ever really been with a TV show was Sailor Moon when I was growing up. Waking up extra early everyday that I was at home just to watch it, even if it was a rerun. I had folders, notebooks, the actually books, decks of cards, figurines, the locket, the moon scepter .. you name it.

Jeff introduced me to Wonderfalls, which is still my absolute favorite TV show ever, and Firefly which is amazing. Both of which I literally watched within a week once I got the DVDs. But I generally prefer a good book and some backround music to sitting on the couch watching the tele. I guess that's why I'm so surprised that recently I can't enough of TV shows.

I don't think I'll ever be someone who rushes to the television at a certain hour every week to catch a show, watching it online is just so much more convenient, but I think I've just recently discovered the wonder of just how awesome some shows can be.

Here's a list of TV shows that I would high recommend to absolutely anyone. Honestly, if you haven't watch these at least do yourself a favor and check them out.

Sailor Moon - What can I say, I'm a sucker for strong female role models dressed in cute outfits. More than just a bunch of pretty girls this show will take you through a series of kickass adventures that will not only inspire you to be your best self, but make you laugh and want to watch more.

Glee - Take High School Musical, add more talent, more humor, better plot lines, and a dash of realism and you still won't be close to realizing how amazing this show is. It's addictive. The musical numbers alone will leave you in awe. The fact that the characters are so lovable, even the ones you love to hate, is just icing on this oh so delicious cake. You always want to know what happens next and the laughs just keep on coming.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Yet another strong female lead with a twist, if you haven't seen this .. you're missing out. You just are.

Dr.Who - Possibly the most amazing show EVER. You get so attached to the doctor and his adventures and the TARDIS and the companions and the story and wanting to know more and at the end of every night you're going to wish the doctor would pick YOU.

LOST - I fully blame this one on The Oceanic Six. My need to know what all the references in their songs meant over took my better knowing side that urged me not to get addicted to yet another show. All it took was 20 minutes into the first episode and I was already turning off my phone and sumbitting myself to the rest of it. I can not get enough. Watch it once and you'll be hooked I promise.

Firefly - Not enough credit or pride was ever given to this show. I feel like I can't find the right words to talk about how amazing it is. So well thought out and poignantly entertaining, this show will be one of your favorites if you give it a try.

Wonderfalls - Sadly, there is one season of the show, which I of course have on DVD. I love the dynamic between the characters and how it just makes you wish you a part of that family, or at very least go visit Niagra Falls to imagine one Miss Jay Tyler not living to the fullest of her potential in the funniest way possible.

Tsubasa Chronicles - A totally awesome Anime, I can't think of how to describe it. It literally took me one episode to get hooked to the point of currently working on making the costume for Princess Sakura. I love this show. So much. It's ridiculous. You have to at least give this show a try. The story line is addictive and imaginative and just completely full of win.

PSYCH - Witty, well written, and downright hilarious, I absolutely love this show. 'Nuff said.

The Guild - This is basically based of World Of Warcraft, but even if you haven't played the game I guarantee these 5 minute video clips will have your ROFL and begging for the next one to come out :)

I hope you discover something wonderful here!

Peace, Love & Pancakes
