like cults, in a way

[hth]

TV Guide just revamped their list of top cult hits, which should be of interest to fandom, I think, since "cult hit" makes a giant overlapping Venn diagram with "fandom favorites."

I am sanguine about most of the list, except -- okay, come on. Obviously Jericho is riding high right now on its uncancellation, but -- ELEVENTH PLACE? More cult cred than MST3K, than Battlestar Galactica, than BABYLON 5 and DOCTOR WHO? Really, TV Guide? Really?? I find that...inexplicable.

I was equally surprised not to see Highlander on the list. And some of their listings, such as "Lost" may be currently culturally relevant, but will they be remembered 10 years from now? I think not.
