of popularity, that is shows that for some time everyone in the country was watching, not necessarily the most popular shows ever
it just baffles me how popular shows get and then fade away

1. ER
2. Survivor
3. American Idol

For real.

I am seriously baffled at what this thread is supposed to be. Any reason why it different from "List popular TV shows here"

10/15/2007 4:23:16 PM

if yall cant understand it then thats your problem
i said list shows that became most popular during their peak

now seinfeld wouldnt qualify cause it was just popular for a long time, not an obsession like
lost or CSI

ha

what?

10/15/2007 11:02:24 PM

if you were to graph seinfelds popularity with time it would reach steady state around 1993

10/15/2007 11:07:20 PM

so this thread is supposed to be about shows that peaked for a season or two then dropped off precipitously?

but the two examples you gave, lost and csi, have been incredibly popular since their inception

thus rendering this thread dumb as shit

Firstly, no, you most certainly did not say that. That may be what you were thinking in that little brain of yours, but that is not even close to what came out.

Secondly, during their peak of what? popularity? So you want us to list shows that became more popular...as they became more popular? You really are bad at this whole speaking english thing.

Third graders wouldn't get passing grades for turning in something like that. It's not even remotely intelligible. This thread sucks. You suck.

Fail.

I guess you are referring to the Next Generation, Voyager, etc., etc. because the original didn't start getting popular until after it was canceled. Oh, and...

Twin Peaks

i wouldn't say that seinfeld is in the same category, they've stopped making new episodes and from what i remember it was very popular till the last. in syndication its dropped, sure, but that's to be expected.

i was thinking the exact same thing.

this is the worst thread ever.

show that were popular at their peak...? they are at their peak b/c they are popular. so, that means the list should include every show ever on TV...

what is wrong with you idiots, just add the word "Most" to that sentence you moron

10/16/2007 3:55:14 PM

you mean shows that reached the height of their popularity at their peak?

because that's what a fucking peak is

or

do you mean shows that, at their peak, were more popular than any other show?

because i answered that question above with the wikipedia link

either way, take an ESL class or two
