I have a fondness for weird television shows. I'm pretty sure the catalyst for my love of the weird was Dark Shadows - I watched the entire series on vhs when I was in middle school. I'm slowly rewatching this on Netflix since they added it to their watch instant lineup before the Tim Burton movie came out.
The Prisoner is also a favorite of mine. The Simpson's version is pretty amazing, too.
Twin Peaks! I was super stoked to go to North Bend, WA and eat at the diner where Cooper gets his pie and coffee (it's a place called Tweety's) and it's really quite terrible.
Other shows that I really like with the same weird bent to them are X-Files, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Outer Limits (original 1963 series), and the Twilight Zone (original 1959 series).
Do you have any weird tv shows that you like to watch? Yes, Toddlers and Tiaras does count. I've only seen one episode and it scared the bejesus out of me.
Lost in Space the 1968 version. I originally saw it on tv, yes I am that old.
ReplyDeleteAny reality show freaks me out. They scare me as well.
ReplyDeleteI have been catching up on Freaks and Geeks, and the Wonder Years.
