Which I see you have done now. There aren't any there I think are top-25 worthy material, with the exception of "Jared Has Aides", which I'm a big fan of.
I've only seen S1-7 myself, with occasional episodes from later seasons (such as those included on the "South Park: The Hits" DVD collection). S8 is released over here next month though (I know, quite a way behind the US) so it looks like I've got some classics to see.
Yep, "Scott Tenorman Must Die" was always going to live or die on its ending.. the whole episode was a lot of back-and-forthing and buildup. Thankfully, it delivered in spades; I'm always overcome with laughter and dumbstruck with shock that they got away with it every time I see it.
What I did find when watching TV is that its a pain cutting through the nonsense that as you said dominates the airwaves and finding the good stuff.
OK, fair enough. I'll go along with that. I discover most of the TV I love on DVD after I've read reviews; I accept channel-flicking might prove less fruitful!
Books, movies & music are way more personal for me atleast, not just some mass media entertainment thats tailored to fit everybody (or American/Western audiences?). I get much greater satisfaction out of books, movies and music than of out watching TV.
Fair enough. I can't say I agree (with the exception of music, which is able to provoke deep emotional reaction in me better than any other medium) but again, that does explain your view somewhat!
Finished college two years ago? I remember you saying at the time, can't believe it's that long ago! Good luck with the film-making course anyway, should be fun and I'll sure you'll do well. You'll be living at home and going in every day then, I take it?
Some great choices here, I love "Just Like Heaven", "Take On Me", "Buddy Holly", "Mr. Brightside" and "Losing My Religion". I find some other choices rather more.. debateable, but hey, who am I to judge. Nice list.
Alrighty, done.

:-D
You'd have one now too, but there appears a bug (Wezz-ug?) in the system somewhere, as it's bouncing back and I'm getting the below error:
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Is it possible your mailbox is full or something? (Sent folder / junk folder overloaded maybe?) Or if not, is there another address I could send to?
Wezz-tastic!
Yeah, sounds fair enough to me, really.
Hey, there's fun and there's too far.
;-)
There was me calling them Wezzosexual.
You just don't Wezz-derstand.
:-D If "Wezz" catches on as a prefix in the pop culture lexicon, the sky's the limit.. this could be bigger than Jesus. ;-)
Check your Wezz-mail Wezz-box. A lengthy We-ssay awaits!

Thanks for replying.
Thanks for posting this, I didn't seen the show. I think they got a lot of good choices in, pretty much everyone I expected to be here is listed.
I prefer the deadly art of Wezz-arate. ;-)
(That's karate, by the way. It's surprisingly hard to shoehorn "Wezz" into words..)
Ahh yes - strike the above, the wonderful Maggie sub-plot in "A Streetcar Named Marge" might just be my number one after all. :-)
