Clone High. It was cancelled before the end of its first season because there was a bit of an outrcry because Ghandi was depicted, but it's this great show. The entire plot of the show is summed up in the opening theme song. It's humor and drama bits are well balanced. It was done by the same people who made Scrubs and, more recently, The Lego Movie. In fact, the quick Abraham Lincoln cameo was done by the same actor who voiced Lincoln on this show.

I recommend it highly.

Project Runway.

The perfect mix of bullshit (fashion industry 'ins' and 'outs'), character conflict, and beautiful fucking art.

Not gonna lie, the reality TV contest shows are my guilty pleasure. :-)

Same. You caught up on the current Big Brother season?

The Imposter is pretty unknown if you don't watch many documentaries. I'm an absolute nut for 'em (though you don't need to be to like it) and that is definitely one of my all time favourites. It's also got some great cinematics. Just check out the trailer.

I rarely hear people talk about Hard Candy. Kind of a chilling, everyone is a shitty person, type of suspense movie.

The 1997 film version of Lolita. I thought Jeremy Irons portrayal of Humbert Humbert was phenomenal.

My favourite is a movie called Mirrormask. It's visually abstract with a dream-like quality to it (in fact, the main character alludes to it being "her dream" several times). Aside from that, it was written by Neil Gaiman, which should say something about it. It can seem a little slow to start, but with lines like "We'll do what rich people do, bathe-in fish!", it's worth it to give the movie a shot.

Considering I've been introducing my roommate to it all week, I'd have to say Young Justice.

There are really too many reasons it is underrated, from the writing, to the art style, to the voice acting and attention to detail. It's in my top 5 DC series ever made.

There is a movie called Once which is one of my favorites. It's a love affairish kind of movie between 2 song writers. They never "seal the deal" as it were, but a wonderful movie nonetheless.

I've seen this one and have to agree there's something about it that's amazing. Watched it with my girlfriend and she didn't really get into it, so I guess to each his own but it's in my top 100 movies.

Stella was a great TV show. It's by the guys that did Wet Hot American Summer aka Stella. They were also apart of The State. It's just a funny show that never pretends to be grounded by reality.

Brisco county jr. One of Bruce Campbell's earlier forays into acting. Massively overlooked and canceled much too early.
