Favorite Fox Shows From the First 25 Years
April 22, 2012 by Marisa Roffman
Fox celebrates their first 25 years on the air tonight, and to honor that time, I wanted to look back at a few of my favorite shows that have aired on the network. The following list is 100% biased, consisting just of the series that have meant the most to me. As a warning, there are some darn good shows that just simply aren’t on this list…
BEVERLY HILLS, 90210
Soapy fun at its best. One of the best things about have 10 years with the kids from one of the most famous zip codes around, was seeing them go from awkward and/or spoiled high schoolers to grown-ups with kids, spouses, etc. -- and all of the crazy drama in between. The show also had one of my favorite series finales ever as Donna and David finally tied the knot. (And I'm just going to pretend all the events from the spinoff never occurred, OK?)
Okay, now you can yell at me — what should I have included?

I have not watched anything on Fox since the series finale of Arrested Development so I do not know about any of the newer shows, but I would be remised if I did not point out that the twelve year old version of myself is completely offended that you left off your list In Living Color, the single greatest television show ever forged (at least according to the twelve year old version of myself). Also it is worth mentioning that Herman’s Head could possibly be the greatest horrible show ever.
I’m totally with you on The X-Files. My first series TV show I followed as much as I could (I was only allowed TV on the weekends growing up) and it’s the first show where I became a “shipper” fan.
Two other show I would have added to your list are Party of Five and MadTV. Both shows were ones that had their ups and downs, but managed to have an impact on my TV viewing experiences through the years.
