i freaking love everyone one of these, and HONESTLY have not seen a single ep of ANY of the rest... weird.
 
... i did see the xfiles movie though
 
That list is flawed. The very fact that Firefly is in the bottom ten is ridiculous. It spawned a film for Christ sake! And The Simpsons being a cult show?! Bull. S***. Cult shows dont usually last nearly twenty years, especially when it airs on FOX.

And other networks... all the time... every day...
 
Yeah, but Fox is know to dispose of cult shows faster than you can say "Andy Richter Controls the Universe." They cancelled that too.
 
Andy Richter Controls the Universe is too long to say. Cause Fox canceled seven shows in the time you said that.

Keen Eddie, John Doe, Firefly, Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Dark Angel, and some others.
 
The Prisoner should be number 1. im sure few here have seen it, however you have seen the allusions to it. i can remember a simpsons parody of it.

The Prisoner. and dont complain about the switch (if you know the show) because it was always planned, it was genius.
 
yeah, already a thread on this.

and like I said in the other one: Jericho at 11 is just f***in ridiculous.
 
even thought Simpsons is really popular and long running, it is a cult show, in terms of how people go about being fans of the show... at least, imo.

No. When the name and the characters are all over television and all over consumer products... congrats you have a POPULAR show. Not a cult show.
 
Any list featuring cult shows that doesn't include Arrested Development is automatically void.

COME ON!
 
Brisco County Jr.? Anyone? Anyone?
 
You might say that they pre-maturley shot their wad and now they have quite a mess on their hands. :):):)
Okay, maybe now I'm just grasping at straws...
 
TV Guide is just going with the most known/popular Cult Shows and not actually the best ones.

Plus, you cannot even compare cults shows when they really are actual cult shows because they are so different.
 
^TV Guide was a tireless supporter of 'AD', so I'm not guessing they omitted it because they didn't like the show.
