Star Trek, the next generation, without a doubt. Get my entire sense of ethics and morality from that show. It was amazing. I still rewatch it quite often.
Byker Grove taught me to never play paintball without eye protection.
Probably Mr. Robot, considering the others would be South Park and Rick and Morty. And it taught me … to not take adderall ig.
Probably The Good Place. Made me question what matters for being good or bad, or just being well intentioned.
Everyone should watch this show
Have you read ‘How to be Perfect’ by Michael Schur yet? The Audiobook even has cameos by most of the cast.
Star Trek TNG, pretty much formed my ethics and moral compass. Pretty much the same can be said for deep space nine
Captain Picard very much became a Captain to all of us, I think.
Of course he’s got some flaws for sure (his stubbornness, for one!) but he really set the bar for what a civilised person and a good leader should be.
He’s principled, fact-based, fair in his judgement, respects the differences of others (both individually and culturally), solves problems with understanding and empathy rather than force, and he’s forgiving of mistakes.
And he does all that while still being a “strong” man. In fact, it’s these very traits which earn him the respect of his crew.
I’m glad I had Captain Picard as an influence in my childhood, rather than whatever youtube channel trying to make me angry for all the wrong reasons.
Such an amazing episode, top 5 tier of all shows combined
Mythbusters.
Some science mixed in with copious amounts of blowing things up and wild problem solving.
The difference between messing around vs science is writing things down!
Surprised nobody here has mentioned Mr Rogers Neighborhood yet.
As a little kid, Mr Rodgers was pretty boring. As a bigger kid, it was below my level.
I fully support the show and what it stood for, but Sesame Street was much more entertaining.
