Literature >= Film > Video Games > Animated TV (Western and anime) > Live-Action TV > Plays > Comics (Western and manga, including webcomics) > Music > Podcasts and Radio > Tabletop Games
In theory. But I generally lump comics in with literature (and plays when I read them), and it doesn't really matter in the long-run what medium something is in if I love it. I just love good stories most (which is why less narrative mediums are farther down the list), so I'll indulge in every medium. No idea how to factor in youtube stuff.

Favorites:
Book: The Silmarillion (and Tolkien in general)
Film, fiction: Amadeus
Film, documentary: Man On Wire
Video Game: Third Age: Total War (Medieval II mod)
Tabletop Game: Chess
Western Animated TV: Freakazoid!
Anime: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Live-Action TV, drama: Doctor Who
Live-Action TV, comedy: Monty Python's Flying Circus
Play, spoken: The Importance of Being Earnest
Musical: Into the Woods
Opera: La Boheme (though I've only seen a few)
Western Comic, general: Y: The Last Man
Western Comic, superhero: Superman: Red Son
Manga: Hikaru no Go
Webcomic: Megatokyo (it'll finish eventually!), though xkcd is really close behind
Composer: Ennio Morricone
Band: The Who
Podcast/Radio: The Majority Report with Sam Seder
Youtube Thingie: Shenryyr2 (Let's Player; he's mostly on Twitch now, though)
Non-Youtube Web Original: Homestar Runner

I have extensive rankings for most of these, especially books and movies.

they are completely different experiences. It's like having to rank eating, drinking, sleeping, breathing, playing, and talking. This is pretty fun to think about, actually

1. Literature
2. Film
3. Video Games
4. Music
5. TV
6. Comics

but they each serve a different purpose

Music is purely emotional/experiential. Literature has the deepest ability to spark introspection, understanding and creativity. By a LONG shot. It's almost like you get to learn how other people think.

Film is the most tightly wound package overall. TV and Comics are often bad in a lot of ways, but even the bad ones can grab you with stockholm syndrome almost as well as literature. Video games are completely different from the rest because they are participatory by definition.


Favorite Literature: Too many. Recent favorites being Inferno (1976), Shadow of the Torturer, The Things They Carried. Recent very goods: The Black Company, Robot series (Isaac Asimov), Foundation series, Mars Trilogy (Kim Stanley Robinson)

Favorite FIlm: This is literally impossible for me to pick. They are all so different. Alien, Aliens, The Man Who Would Be King, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Looper, Moon, Fight Club, Gladiator, The Fifth Element, X-Men 2

Favorite Television: The Killing
Favorite "Bad"* Television: Star Trek: The Next Generation, Twin Peaks, Fringe

Favorite Comics: The Watchmen
Favorite "Bad" Comics: original Fantastic Four, original spider-man

Favorite Music: Literally cannot pick, because it depends on my emotional context. I am constantly listening to different music while working. Most recent thing I wanted to play on loop was C2C - Delta.

Favorite Video Games: Tough, i want to split this into different categories (competitive, storytelling, etc), and games get better every year. Rocket League, Halo: Combat Evolved, Metal Gear Solid, Starcraft (hell, Starcraft 2), Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, Final Fantasy 7, Dying Light after the first few hours.. So many games were great at the time and didn't age well, or relied so much on the story that they aren't worth a second playthrough- Mass Effect trilogy, Knights of the Old Republic. Games are so different that it's hard to rank them against each other

*By bad, I mean it embodies a lot of the things that i hate about the medium, but still comes out on top

The only one I can confident state my favorite is Video Games (FFX), the others I haven't thought about or can't decide. There's a huge gap between music and TV (unless you count sports, then it's a smaller gap and a big gap between TV and Film)

From a personal standpoint, and not what I think on a bigger picture...

Video Games > TV > Film > Literature > Music > Comics

I've never really read a comic. I've never cared that much about animation in that sense. Very easy last place.

Music is default second-to-last since I've never cared about music, but I've at least found a lot of music I really like. But I've never liked music to the same degree I've liked any piece of material from the other four subjects above it. I could live my life almost without music and I would be fine. I'm weird with this subject.

Literature I really love with certain novels, I've had some intense moments just getting wrapped up in books. But overall, if I'm being honest, I don't read very often, and I find literature to be hit and miss. Oftentimes I don't care about what I'm reading. I know I should read more, I have a long list of books I intend to get through.

Video games are an easy first. I play them nearly every day, have had so many great moments.

TV vs. Film is the only tricky question. Right now I enjoy TV a lot more. Films aren't something I watch much lately.
