I'm not sure that I'd for sure name it best (it's kind of unfair to compare all different sorts of TV shows together in one category), but it's certainly the one I return to over and over and over again. (Too bad not all of the seasons were of equal quality, though.)

Part of the impact of West Wing was the marked contrast between Josiah Bartlett's administration and the real-life version under Bush and Cheney.
- Mark "Godt Nyt Ǻr"
That may account for some of its popularity, Mark, but I think West Wing was popular for what marks a lot of Sorkin shows: excellent dialogue, fantastic mix of comedy and drama, supernal ensemble casting...and the extra for West Wing was being able to geek out over all that governmental stuff. The dialogue was so thick with it that repeat viewings reward you. Takes several times seeing an ep before you really feel you've gotten everything out of it.
- Spidra Webster
Without looking at other answers: Homicide, particularly the first year.

First season of Miami Vice... unfadeable baby!

The West Wing was so awesome I remember bit characters. Like the guy in records or something who had the best line ever. "Well you're a strange little frumpy man, aren't you?" Of all the series I've loved, this one lasts the longest.

better than TWW: Arrested Development, Futurama, Veronica Mars, The Simpsons (uh, stopping somewhere between end of season 9 and season 12 at the latest), 30 Rock, Community, and Newsradio. Action, Pushing Daisies, and Life, too if we can sneak in those shows that were "cancelled before their time". Buffy up to S5 but not past it. Esp considering the relative doldrums of TWW s3 - s6.

That's easy, 24 and X-Files are far better. :-)

Rome series 1, BSG reimagined, Sportsnight, Buffy, Farscape, Magnum PI, Red Dwarf, Thundar the Barbarian, Underdog, M.A.S.H., Password, What's My Line?, I Love Lucy, The Carol Burnett Show all rank pretty high with me. I'm sure I missed some. Loved West Wing in doses, but it became taxing for me to watch.
- Michael W. May
West Wing is a tough show to compare shows to. As far as must watch TV: Damages, Flash Forward, Rescue Me, Dark Blue, Fringe, Lie To Me... This would be easier if I was near my DVR!

The West Wing might be my FAVORITE series but I think the BEST series was The Wire.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Good show, but best ever? Don't think so. The Wire and Rome, for instance, are way better. Heroes Season 1 (only), Kings, The Black Donnellys, Babylon 5, New BSG before season 4 are some more. Andrew C names a bunch more that I agree with.

I saw a clip. It showed a person being cowed into standing for the president. That was enough for me.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
What does cowed into standing for the president mean?
- Mona Nomura
intimidated - one is "supposed" to stand up when the president enters a room, at least according to the show. it's a statist ritual, like singing songs of praise to governments. i find it offensive.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Respect != intimidation. Besides, what's wrong with showing respect to ranked officers? POTUS is the Chief of Staff.

All you have to do is take some photos – which you never delete from your camera – so when someone finds your camera at the bottom of the gorilla pit they are able to locate you and return the lost property to its rightful owner. http://www.andrewmcdonald.net.au/a-picto...
I like how everything is clear and readable except the email address.
- Alex Scrivener
LOL That's funny, but yeah...what's with the email address being so small?
- Admiral Anika
At any rate, I had a video I made with all my info on it. I accidentally took it off my chip, but I'm positive I copied it to my camera. Unfortunately, I don't know how to access my camera's memory and the cord has been lost. One of these days, I'll RTFM. =)

I like how the facial expressions match the whiteboard :-)
- Rene Wirtz
lol that was awesome as hell. I'm definitely planning to do it.
- Bora Mesut PALAS
I'd just leave only one pic with my email

The other pics build empathy, encouraging a border-line thief to return the camera. Otherwise you may as well stick a label on the case and be done with it.

Does anyone else want to make out with this guy for being SO DAMN AWESOME? Srsly, total panty-dropper this one was.
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
wow, this is very close to being the most popular thing I have ever posted to Friendfeed. Just goes to show, um, something. Always use pictures?
- Alex Scrivener
I'm the opposite. I tend to ignore posts with photos (unless the post itself is just a photo). Why? The image usually detracts from the text and people spend time talking about the picture and making it clear they didn't bother to read the text or link.
- Admiral Anika
=/ (not about the original post. I already expressed how much I love it)
- Kamilah Gill
Or you could just put an address sticker on the camera...
- Alix Whitmire
No, the pictures try to build an emotional connection with the finder. It helps convince a not-so-honest person to return the camera rather than just keep it. It won't stop a real thief, but it could tip the odds in his favor. A sticker can't do that.
- Alex Scrivener
There should be a place in your camera for email address, like cell phones have "Home" so when you lose it, someone can call you. Hmmmm.
- anna sauce
I wouldn't ever think to go through pics, but if I found a lost cam (or phone or whatever) with an address clearly visible on it, I'd pop it in the mail, or call/email someone, no problem. Same holds true for some lost and found places. They might call you if there's easy contact info, but I don't see them taking the time to flip through photos to figure out how. Maybe do both?
- Alix Whitmire
I was putting a README.txt file on my USB sticks with contact info if it got lost. This is way better! Now take this board with your contact info.... smile, no! put a sad face.... and you're done!

"3D is not some sort of gimmick in this new generation of films -- it's being used to completely change the storytelling experience. I read one Avatar review yesterday where the reporter said that after the film ended, he felt as if he had actually visited the location of the film instead of having just watched it from a distance," writes Parsons, who says he's heard similar reactions from viewers of recent 3D films like Disney/Pixar's "Up."
- Cristo
from Bookmarklet
"If the published content is engaging enough, and the experience is fun enough, I think the next time consumers are ready to buy a TV, they will seriously consider one that can reproduce 3D on Blu-ray," write Parsons, who stressed there's no guarantee that recent 3D flicks will appear on 3D Blu-ray anytime soon. (But it's a safe bet they will at some point.)"
- Cristo
I think the last 3D movie I saw was Jaws 3D. I hope it has gotten better since then.
- Rodfather
They'll put out the vanilla Blu-ray first, followed later by the Extended Director's Cut, followed later still by the 3D version. Intervals scientifically designed to maximize profit.

If you are in the military there is no 12:00 AM...Time goes from 23:59 to 00:01
- Alex Scoble
Military time is the only clock to live by, but it just sounds silly in English compared to French. Unless I'm just more used to military time in French being used as normal time.
- Richard A.
Alex - 23:59 to 00:01 is 2 minutes? It really goes from 00:00 to 24:00 (i.e., 24 hrs) except that 00:00 and 24:00 are the same.
- Victor Ryden
No, there is no 24:00 or 00:00 in the military. So yes, you get this funky 2 minute period at the end of the day, beginning of the next.

According to most calendars the day finishes at 59, therefore the new day is from zero. You have to add the new calendar day if the event/occurence goes beyond midnight.

THEORETICALLY: News Feed is popular items, items that have been liked/commented on. Live Feed is everything chronologically. I don't think either works properly.
- Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Facebook's Live Feed= they can scan your hard drive and get your bank account number! News Feed = they can tell how much you have in the account!
- John D Reasor
i think of the facebook news feed as their attempt at friendfeed's best of day without the implications that best of day brings along, and the facebook live feed as friendfeed proper
- Chris Heath
Because there's no official explanation from FB itself and because the difference is so enigmatic, I've found myself contemplating it for far longer than is probably warranted.
- Victor Ganata
Yeah, what Jandy said. I vaguely recall there was an official explanation back when it launched.

I think it makes perfect sense -- people have free time to look. No need for posts to have been done by a person -- they could have been scheduled by some sort of bot.

Alex, I think you'd be hard pressed to find an English word where the vowels are pronounced differently and they ARE stand alone.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
"English words where the same single vowel are pronounced differently"? Should be "...is pronounced..." Vowel is singular. <grammar nazis rule>
- Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)
This reminds me of a book by a poet friend of mine: "Eunoia" One chapter for each vowel, and all words in that chapter contain only that vowel e.g. 'e' has only words with 'e' in it. A fun read! http://www.chbooks.com/catalog...
