Well, time to show some differences in my list and Mega Mana's.
#35 Supernatural (2005-____)
Sci-fi
Mega Mana's Ranking: 6
I loved the first couple seasons of this show. When it was just about a couple of brothers bonding while going about their monster of the week adventures. As the show became more serious and the "main" plot became more prominant I found myself enjoying it less. Then it became quite religious with Angels and Devils and I found I liked it even less. Cas was a great addition to the cast, but by that time Dean and Sam had lost the good natured banter and funny antics that I loved and become serious, brooding characters which I just didn't really like watching. And Cas didn't really lighten the mood.
The battles with the four horsemen left me extremely disappointed (honestly, they should have had that last until the end of the season and make Satan and Crowley another season). As the show went on I became less interested and after season 5 ended (and the show should have) I stopped watching completely. The only episode of Season 6 I have seen is the finale. That's right, even Mark Sheppard couldn't get me to watch, and that is saying something.
Also, I don't really love all the meta stuff. The inside jokes when they went to hollywood was funny. Adding fangirls, fanfic, conventions, and a fake series based on them was too much. The idea of going to a parallel "real world" sounds much better and honestly funny.
#34 Merlin (2008-____)
Fantasy, British
Mega Mana's Ranking: Not Ranked
A fun twist on the Arthurian legends that starts years before Arthur's reign as king begins. Heck, Morgana isn't even a bad guy until the latest season, and Mordred is an innocent little boy. This show really doesn't follow things accuratey, but who cares!
The show has a great sense of humor, interesting characters, good action, exciting plots, good chemistry between the cast. The Paendragon family is interesting to watch, Merlin's mentor is awesome, and Merlin and Arthur are great together. Too bad last season was a letdown and the Morgana heel turn was handled badly.
Oh, and it has Tony Head (better known as Giles in Buffy) as a main character.
#33 Angel (1999-2004)
Fantasy, Action
Mega Mana's Ranking: Not Ranked Yet (I assume)
Speaking of Buffy, it's time for the spin off. That's right the 2nd of 4 Joss Whedon shows on this list has appeared. Angel has a more serious attitude than Buffy does, especially after the first season. This makes it a better show for many people, but not me. Angel himself is better here than he ever was on Buffy (excluding when he was evil), Cordelia starts off the same character I loved, then they decided to hook her up with Angel and things went downhill. Doyle was amazing in every way but didn't last long. Gunn was fun. Wesley's development was great. Faith has a couple episodes that are among my favorite of either Buffy or Angel. Fred is annoying but Illyria is great. Wolfram and Hart are great villains.
Really the show does some amazing things and has some great moments. Biggest problem is that I will take Adam and the initiative over most the Season arcs of Angel. Seasons 3 and 4 were not good in my mind.
