Favorite Fox Shows From the First 25 Years

April 22, 2012 by  

Fox celebrates their first 25 years on the air tonight, and to honor that time, I wanted to look back at a few of my favorite shows that have aired on the network. The following list is 100% biased, consisting just of the series that have meant the most to me. As a warning, there are some darn good shows that just simply aren’t on this list… 

WONDERFALLS

For as unfortunately short-lived as Bryan Fuller's shows have been in the past, there's something perfect about WONDERFALLS only having a handful of episodes. Would I rather it have multiple seasons in a perfect world? Of course. But getting to know Jaye, the girl who could talk with inanimate animal objects, and her insane family and coworkers was such a breath of fresh air that I can't help but be happy we had any time in that quirky world. Plus, very few characters have managed to reach that level of delicious snark. If you haven't checked it out, the show manages to wrap up quite a lot in its 13 episodes. 

Okay, now you can yell at me — what should I have included?

    I have not watched anything on Fox since the series finale of Arrested Development so I do not know about any of the newer shows, but I would be remised if I did not point out that the twelve year old version of myself is completely offended that you left off your list In Living Color, the single greatest television show ever forged (at least according to the twelve year old version of myself). Also it is worth mentioning that Herman’s Head could possibly be the greatest horrible show ever.

    I’m totally with you on The X-Files. My first series TV show I followed as much as I could (I was only allowed TV on the weekends growing up) and it’s the first show where I became a “shipper” fan.

    Two other show I would have added to your list are Party of Five and MadTV. Both shows were ones that had their ups and downs, but managed to have an impact on my TV viewing experiences through the years.
