What are some series that you like so much that you don't absolutely give a damn about what others say?

I like Transformers film series. Come on, it has giant transforming robots from outer space that beats the hell out of OTHER giant transforming robots from outer space while blowing the shit out of everything!

I don't care what critics say, that movie is awesome and if you don't like it, too bad.

What are yours?

EDIT: If you have no such series, then don't post.

I'm kind of squishy when it comes to debates. I'll defend something until a good enough point is brought up, then I succumb.

As such, there really isn't anything I'll defend beyond a certain point.

Not that I wouldn't defend anything else I like to read/watch/play, but I've participated in discussions about those three the most.

I like Disney's Chicken Little and am willing to defend it if someone knocks me for it.

So sue me.

[up] Well, we should never talk about it together then.

Here's hoping that no one brings up Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

Oh, and I seriously love Unforgiven and Gran Torino.

Why would anyone be concerned with bringing up Madoka? I've yet to see anyone rag on that show, to the extent that it needs to be defended.

Personally, I'm a big Batman and Street Fighter fan...but I try not to get too defensive about them. At least I try :P

Glee and Pushing Daisies. I hate "fanboys" and "fangirls", but if you say something bad about PD, I fly off the fucking handle. It's literately pathetic.

Glee I totally get as to why people dislike it...but Daisies?

It's that good huh? Since it only has 22 episodes, without a doubt much to some of you guys' distress, I might check it out. The premise sounds good.

If you ask me, the second season (after the writer's strike) isn't nearly as good, but the first season is definitely worth it.

There isn't one. I cannot get behind a religion, and I refuse to allow a media franchise to become a surrogate for that.

There are a few I'll back with more emotion than others (Fire Fly, Jimmy Buffett, Strange Days) but none I would defend against all comers.

  • -Firefly did too much too fast to hold the common man's interest.
  • -Jimmy can't sing all that well.
  • -The ending to Strange Days is laughably improbable.

I love these things; and like any woman, I love them flaws and all. Love accepts flaws. Obsession merely denies them.

Recognizing their flaws is different than denying all flaws, and you can defend a series despite its flaws.

I know that Transformers film series have a lot of flaws but fuck you all, I would marry that series if it was possible.
