1. ‘…what books, movies, comics, TV series or anime from the 2000’s surprised you or was most memorable?

Television

The 2000s had some solid TV shows to be fair. You had Star Trek Enterprise which got off to a shaky start but progressively came along and got cancelled before it could hit its full stride. We had long lasting and very popular sitcoms with The Big Bang Theory, Community, Always Sunny in Philadelphia, How I Met Your Mother, 30 Rock, Modern Family, technically Family Guy (started in 1999, last a few years and then got cancelled for a few years ago), American Dad and Two and a Half Men.

Shows that had big stars, made big stars, reinvigorated careers but also in some cases may have lasted a little too long.

There were also some pretty cool shows like The Shield, Dexter, and Sons of Anarchy. I kind of fell out of watching TV shows a bit with starting my current job, adjusting to shift work, and kind of doing more with my life so this write-up wont be as long as some of the others.

What I will say about this era though was the ugly, ugly rise of the Reality TV Show… I don’t want to name any of them… I mean… The Emperor Protects.
