Because polls are fun! (and useful too)

Just finished watching, in a slightly chaotic order, DS9's first season, Stargate SG-1's fifth, and everything we could find of The Big Bang Theory (which was, of all the comedy shows I've seen over the past years, the one that made me laugh loudest and most often! Engineering and physics jokes made me all nostalgic, *sigh*. Not to mention the references to various obscure and less obscure fandoms - game of Klingon Boggle, anyone?).

The logical next question is, which show to watch now? Unfortunately, said question isn't so straightforward to answer, given that I just received a whole hard drive's worth of sci-fi series from a gracious colleague and co-geek, and husband got half a hard-drive's worth of mostly comedy shows from one of his colleagues not so long ago, which we're still only halfway through. So, dear flist, I was hoping you could give me some much-needed advice. Below is the list of possible choices. Which shows, when you watched them back in the time, exceeded your expectations? Which ones have you watched a dozen times and still haven't grown tired of? And which made you wail and curse because you thought they were crap but couldn't stop watching anyway?

Lost S5: gah, couldn't stop myself. We bought it this week-end - because we still had this gift voucher, you see, and it's only valid until January, so there really wasn't any reason not to buy Lost with it... now, was there? *facepalm* I have no resilience in this, really.
The first two episodes are promising, in any case! More of Ben Linus always makes my day!

And another vote for Dr Who s3, yay!
I caught some glimpses of Deadwood while it was on TV, but not enough to get a feel of whether I'd like it. On the other hands, the DVDs are ridiculously cheap around here, so... *twiddles*

And - how's the NaNo!?? Are you nearing the finish line, or is there still a week of mild or not-so-mild panic to overcome? :) Anyway: Go, you, write! Yes! Whoo!

Ben is a strange one, isn't he? I found him incredibly annoying the first time he appeared on screen, but he started to grow on me pretty quickly, and as to the end of season 4, he (almost) is my favourite character. (Locke is still my number, at least for now.)

About the NaNo: you know, I might actually win. I only have 5000 words to go and, barring exceptionally bad luck in the next few days, I should finish this on time.
I'm not bragging until it's all over, though. That will be my sweet, sweet reward.
