Serial Questions

A questionnaire circulating among German blogs:

• Are you regularly watching TV series?
  Yes. Currently on TV mostly Bones, Stargate (just ended), Prison Break, NCIS (forgot that one), Ghost Whisperer, Veronica Mars, Simpsons; and with less attention (e.g. while surfing/reading blogs) the CSIs and the older Simpsons episodes.
• What constitutes a good TV series for you?
  It should have good characters and be exciting (or funny), and a continuous story arc can help a lot if it’s good (Prime example: Babylon 5).
• Is there a series that you’d leave everything else for as it is?
  Thanks to hard disk recorders/receivers that allow convenient time-shift viewing, that didn’t happen for years.
• And which series is a no-go?
  All that telenovela and daily soap stuff will not pass my liquid crystals.
• Do you buy series on DVD?
  Yes – especially those that you don’t get (properly) on German TV and/or I’d prefer in English and which are most important to me:
  24 (you just have to watch multiple episodes in a row – Season 6 is on its way), Supernatural (Season 2 has just arrived), Babylon 5, Hex, and especially Buffy & Angel.
