Look Out World, Here Comes EmmTV

And it will rock your socks. Welcome to my new TV blog where I shall be posting about TV I like. Since this is the introductory post I'll start out just by listing a few of the delicious TV shows that are near and dear to my heart and that I'll probably post about most frequently.

Futurama
The Office
Survivor
I Love New York
Flavor of Love
America's Next Top Model
Gossip Girl
Project Runway
Top Chef
The Hills

I would roughly call that my top 10. My favorite by far is Futurama, a masterpiece of an animated sitcom if you've never seen it. There's just something about the deep character development, the well crafted plotlines and the gorgeous animation in certain scenes that really works for me. I'll watch almost any episode of Futurama at any time. I especially love the episodes that touch on harder and sadder emotions, something that very few shows seem willing to do realistically these days (and considering Futurama is set 1,000 years from now, it's hard to believe that it should be one of the more realistic portrayals of actual human interaction out there). It's also totally funny and filled with references and jokes that few people will actually get. The characters are amazing as well - I love Fry as the dumbass with a heart of gold, and Leela as the one-eyed Everywoman. I can't wait for the release of the new movies and the eventual return to cable on Comedy Central.

If you have happened across my humble blog and are a fan of Futurama, who's your favorite character? Have you pre-ordered Bender's Big Score yet?
