Which one is better?

In looking back through my TV history, there are only 2 shows that stand out that I watch religiously. I mean, I watch re-runs like they are new episodes. Yes, I loved Friends. Yes, I loved Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Yes, I loved Alf. Yes, I loved Silver Spoons. Yes, I loved Frasier. Yes, I loved Golden Girls (not as much as Amy does!). Yes, I love..ok, I could go on for hours. However, lets look at two of my all time favorite television shows:

Will and Grace
I remember the first episode of Will and Grace that ever caught my eye. Where Grace gets the water bra. It’s from Season 2. Anyway, every week night at 10:00, I watch Will & Grace on Lifetime. Chris & I have a battle EVERY single night to watch this. I give him major credit for letting me watch it. He will at least tolerate it. In fact, last night, he even laughed a few times, but don’t tell him I said that. Sometimes, we’ll compromise. Like Wed night, I told him he could watch whatever as long as I could watch Will & Grace on Thursday night. He did & I did too.

Out of all of the characters, Jack is my favorite. Now, I don’t like how whiny he was in towards the end of the series, but he cracks me up. Always talking about how Will is fat “Ha, ha ha…you’re bloated”. Or announcing he is bored (picking up the phone) “Hello? What's that? I'm bored? Thanks for calling.” His name throwing lines “Haley Joel Osment, you look fantastic!” The one man show “JUST JACK”. His crazy wishes “1. Five hundred thousand dollars all in fifties. 2 A Shetland pony died pony blue to match my eyes. 3 Powder Blue Eyes. “ I could go on and on. But I love Jack. Believe it or not, he reminds me a lot of someone that I know. I just wish this person would exit from the closet, if you will. Back to the subject at hand.

For Christmas, Chris got me Season 2 on DVD and I almost cried I was so excited. He asked me what was my favorite episode. I think my response was “all of them”. Since then, I have been thinking about it. Finally, my favorite one came on the other day. Here is the best scene:


The Office
Another show, that I watch religiously, is The Office. One reason I love this show, aside from not having a laugh track, is that it reminds me of my everyday life. I don’t think I would appreciate it otherwise. I came upon this show one Thursday out of boredom. It came on and it was the episode where Jim puts Dwight’s office supplies in the vending machine. Ok but really, the best part is that I used to work with a guy that reminds me of Dwight. I won’t say the place, but I will use his name, Neal. I confirmed this with another former co-worker and my brother (he worked there as well). Neal is Dwight, I’m sorry folks but that makes it more hilarious to me. When you have a character that mimics a real life person - that rocks.

Out of all of the characters, I have a tie between all of them. Andy and Dwight. Both are so ridiculous. Andy with his a capella group “Here Comes Treble” and always singing. Then there’s Dwight (Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica) with no heart/soul and a beet farm. Yes I love the way Jim and Dwight don’t get along (see Conflict Resolution from Season 2) and I love that Jim and Pam are together. I love how crazy their boss, Michael Scott is too! I find myself saying “That’s what she said” all the time. His hate for Toby cracks me up. Why does he hate Toby? I don’t know. Since I can’t think of one good moment, here are a few funny moments out of a thousand:
