The classics:
Firefly
Dark Angel
Veronica Mars
Angel
Red Dwarf
Profit
Wonderfalls
Yes Prime Minister
Due South
The new discoveries:
Dexter
Monk
Psych
Burn Notice
Dexter has been blowing me away. I have watched the first season twice, back to back. This is as good a TV show as it comes.

Firefly
West Wing
La Femme Nikita ( I believe that the people running "Section" grew up to work for the Alliance/Blue Sun and that Madalyn's many times removed greatgrand daughter was in charge of the Academy River attended)
Quantum Leap
Highlander
Red Shoes Diary( not a TV Series...but still a
collection of work I feel the need to
own...chuckles)
I am sure I will think of more as I can afford to buy em, but these are the ones that come to mind first.

Old thread but I can't help respond:
First can be nothing but:
BtVS
Then in no particular order:
Firefly
Angel
My So-Called Life
Veronica Mars
The X-Files (Seasons 1-7...I can do without 8-9)
Roswell is my guilty pleasure
I also love
Brisco County, Jr. but I'm not sure it's a must-own, although I do. Definitely a must-see....

Firefly Don't even get me started...
Andy Richter Controls the Universe The funniest show of the 21st Century, disgracefully not yet available
The Tick Browncoat Ben Edlund's finest half hour (or nine thereof)
Kitchen Confidential "I don't know why I love you..." Oh, that's right, Morena Baccarin falling down drunk, episode 11
Undeclared Unquestionally funny and real, my favourite Judd Apatow/Seth Rogen vehicle
My self imposed rules are:
five shows
SINGLE SEASON ONLY SHOWS!
That leaves no room for Scrubs, BlackAdder, Fawlty Towers, Veronica Mars, 3rd Rock From the Sun, 30 Rock, Two and a Half Men, Blake's 7 or Seven Periods with Mr Gormsby (except that only season one of that is available on dvd.)
I make no apologies for the dominance of comedy in my list.

Yep, thats it. The objects and all.
"The Lost Room" as seen here.
http://www.scifi.com/lostroom/about/show/
I ordered it and haven't watched it yet. Looking forward to it.
Also, anyone else watched the HBO series: The Wire? I have listed it in several "list" or great show threads and no one else ever does. I realize this is a SCI-FI forum and all, but this show blew my mind. ...and now it is over.
