Disclaimer

If you do not know me (I mean, really know me) then there is something you need to understand before you read this blog: I value the truth above everything else... except a good laugh. A good laugh will almost always beat the truth as far as I’m concerned. Everything you read on this blog will be true, somewhat true, or something I made up in an effort to get a laugh. Sometimes I will go on a rant that I don’t really mean (or only kind of mean). Sometimes I will mean what I write only to completely change my mind a year, month, or day later. Such is life. By reading this blog you agree not to get offended by anything I write (or, at the very least, you agree not to tell me or anyone else that you are offended). It is worth noting that my employer does not endorse my blog (or even read it, to tell you the truth). The Wife also does not endorse my blog (though she will read it from time to time). I am not paid to write this... it’s just my way of giving back to the community. I have, and will, touch on a wide range of subjects and will give my opinion on these subjects. Again, most of what I say is for laughs but every now and then I will say what I really think and feel (see my views on Westboro Baptist Cult). How will you know when I’m serious and when I’m trying to get a laugh? You’ll know. And if you don’t know, well... maybe this isn’t the best thing for you to be reading. So, sit back, read and enjoy. Leave comments if you want and don’t be afraid to publicly follow me.

The I’m just sayin… Top 747 TV Shows of All-Time

84   Airwolf   1984-1987  

83   The Abbott and Costello Show   1952-1954   You might be able to find some comedy duos who are as funny… But you'll never find any who are funnier than Abbott and Costello.

82   Sesame Street   1969-present   Classic

81   Seinfeld   1989-1998   A very funny show… the last episode wasn't that great, but overall the show was funny.

80   Scrubs   2001-2010   This show was a great look into the medical world.

79   Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?   1969-1971, 1978   A great look at the '70s and the hippie culture…

78   Saved by the Bell   1987-1993   A great high school soap opera

77   Lassie   1954-1973   The dog that all pets try to live up to…

76   Sanford and Son   1972-1977   Red Foxx… That's what I'm talking about

72   Perry Mason   1957-1966  

71   Pardon the Interruption   2002-present   This show is a game changer. It could be, perhaps, the greatest sports show on TV.
