    TV Shows:

    The Office
    The Wire
    King of Queens


    Why? Comedy is very important in life. I think The Office and KoQ are the two shows that I find myself laughing at jokes I can quote before they even happen. I considered Seinfeld over KoQ but just couldn't do it. The Wire is the greatest show I've ever seen and I do not think it needs much explaining especially on this forum.

    Movies:

    Gladiator - My personal favorite. Very inspiring. What we do in life, echoes in eternity!
    Goodfellas - It's just flawless. I'm on the edge of my seat every time this is on TV and I've seen it so many times I end up asking myself "why did I just watch that again?" But it's just too good to change the channel.
    Dumb and Dumber - Easily the funniest comedy of all time. Childhood favorite as well.
    Rounders - A lot of great performances here. I play a lot of poker and played professionally for 3 years until Black Friday happened in 2011.
    The Dark Knight - I could probably change this one out but it was one of the greatest "movie-going" experiences of my life. We went to the Thursday midnight show and by 2:30AM we were just blown away by what we just saw.

    Movies
    Clueless
    Mean Girls
    How High

    TV Shows
    The Soup
    Seinfeld
    Frasier

    I'm not much of a movie watcher so I'll leave it at 3. The first two because hello, they are basic 101 to life. How High because it's an easy movie and I love Red & m--- in it.
    The Soup is an ongoing series, with short clips so it wouldn't get too repetitive. Seinfeld has infinite rewatchability and Frasier, I'm on my 3rd time round of watching it so it's proving it's worth to me.
