I guess I wasn't one for watching series much. And certainly not for watching them more than once. I never even heard of most of these. I watched M*A*S*H but probably not every episode, and some ST:TNG, but again, not every episode. I had horses. :confused:
 
Various cooking shows, fairy tail (which i've seen 5 times and am due for another rewatch) most of the yugioh anime's, mushishi, bananya, michiri neko, and some others

That show is amazing! I remember watching it on pbs on Saturdays along with are you being served. Wonderful shows, I also heard the lady who played hyacinth was actually a far more pleasant person IRL and was evidently quite generous

I'm so sorry but Patricia Routledge passed away on October 5th at the age of 96.

I love KUA and Hyacinth, too. In addition to comedy she was an excellent dramatic actress. If you have time some quiet, rainy afternoon, get a cup of tea and watch this 47-minute monologue of hers from 1982, it's called "A Woman Of No Importance." I won't spoil it other than to say it's outstanding.
