Who, Trek, Sherlock
Dr who, star trek, firefly
Doctor Who, Batman The Animated Series, Star Trek
Why choose, when I can see them all?
Doctor Who, Games of Thrones, and LotR
Firefly, Doctor Who, and Star Trek
As much as I love Star Wars and Indiana jones. I have to go with Star Trek, Doctor Who and Sherlock Holmes (based on the sheer vereity offered by the vast amount of episodes available especially in the Doctor/Trek catagory. And Holmes numbers are pretty prolific as well
Can't I just bring some books?
I also feel the need to remind some of you that Doctor is not his occupation but his chosen name so we do not abbreviate or use lower case. It's Doctor Who. Who is also acceptable. As is The Doctor.
SHERLOCK
DOCTOR WHO
FIREFLY
For crying out loud, referring to the title of show quickly not him. My phone also replaces the word unless I edit it. I'm on a bus, using shorthand and really don't care if anyone's offended that easily. Loosen up. I chose Doctor Who for the sheer amount of episodes, and I'd throw in Torchwood in that. Star trek has tons of episodes too and different types, and Firefly is just awesome. All have great rewatch value.

+Amanda Park now you're just breaking all the rules set forth by the proposed scenario. Are you trying to hurt me. (This post along with the whole capitalization is mostly satirical) People that know me also know it's somewhat of a little running gag about the whole Doctor Who spelling thing. All in good fun madam.. All in good fun.
the walking dead, dr. who, the current marvel movie universe
dr who, sherlock holmes, star trek
Oh now you guys are just doing it on purpose.
Star trek, doctor who annnndd sharlock holmes :3
Same as you, I think, just for variety, and I love them.
Star wars, sherlock holmes and dr who
None… I'll sit in silence
The Walking Dead, Kevin Smith movies, and Batman the animated series
Dr. Who, Sherlock Holmes, & The Current Marvel Movie Universe (just cause why not on the last one)
Lord of the rings, Star trek, Batman animated series.
Dr Who, Firefly, Sherlock Holmes.
Star Wars, Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes
Star Trek, Marvel and Sherlock Holmes!
game of thrones, star wars, and batman animated series
Game of thrones
Dr. Who new and old
Sherlock Holmes all new and old
I love Star Trek and Doctor Who and they would be my top choices anyway, but isn't it unfair to ask people to choose between sweeping franchises like those that have multiple TV series and movies, vs one show (GoT) or one set of movies (Indiana Jones)? ……Four (arguably three) Indy movies, vs 12 star trek films, TOS, TNG, Animated Series, DS9, Voy, and Enterprise? That is a lot more content to watch over and over…..where as 3 or 4 Indy films might get old quick if they're all you have to watch (no matter how much we all love 'em).
That all said…Star Trek, Doctor Who, ahhh, and….probably Firefly/Serenity, but current Marvel 'verse is close.
Though I'm also wondering if your "all series/movies" for Sherlock include Elementary, House, and others based on SH without bearing the name "Sherlock."
Thank god I'll never actually have to make this decision.
Doctor Who, Doctor Who, and……
DOCTOR WHO! ????
Ditto , the same as +Scott Cramer
Indiana Jones (including Adventures of Young Indiana ? ) , Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes
Although any Star Trek with Holmes/Moriarty is included. You did say ALLLLLLL Series with Sherlock Holmes. (I will cheat, and I will cheat proudly). He is the one of the most portrayed character in films "70 actors playing the part in over 200 films" plus I'll claim every non-canonical work ever (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-canonical_Sherlock_Holmes_works).
Star Trek. There is so much ST, and most of it is really well done.
Marvel. Again, lots of awesome. Some of the movies kinda suffer from trying to fit main stream a little too much, or sequels for the sake of sequels (looking at you Spidy), but most are good, or at least have redeeming qualities.
And Kevin Smith. He is a bit of an unexpected/(formerly)underappreciated genius. There is enough substance to his movies to warrant rewatching.
I want to say Firefly and Serenity for the awesomeness of them, but sadly, there is so little content there that I've already watched, rewatched all of it, including special features a gazillion times. If it was expanded to Joss's work, I'd pick that over Marvel.
Doctor Who, Star Trek, and The Current Marvel Universe
Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Doctor Who
I agree with your choices, Cuz!
Star Wars, Game of Thrones, & Marvel
Just 3?? Wow. Doctor Who/Star Trek/and ummm Lord Firefly Holmes-Jones? 😉

The Doctor, LOTR, Sherlock.
I choose not to choose so that I don't have to be limited.
Start Trek, Dr Who, Batman TAS
The only thing on this list I have not watched repeatedly is Firefly and Serenity. I would go with LOTR, SW, and Dr. Who.
Dr Who (great shows and lots to watch), Lord of the Rings (extended edition of course), and Sherlock Holmes (as long as the fantastic Jeremy Brett/Edward Hardwicke version is included). There!
1. DOCTOR WHO!!!!!! This one is not even a question for me!
2. Sherlock <3 (neither is this)
3. The current marvel movie universe 🙂

Y U MAKE THIS HARD CHOICE
MY BRAIN CANNOT TAKE THIS
NOPE. NOT AGAIN. STOP LIMITING MY ABILITIES TO USE NETFLIX. I'LL JUST USE NETFLIX INSTEAD OF PICKING THREE TV SHOWS AND MOVIES
THEN I HAVE LOTS OF TV SHOWS AND MOVIES
SHUT UP
MY BRAIN HURTS
GOODNIGHT
I GO SLEEP NOW.
Doctor who, Doctor who, DOCTOR WHO!
Doctor Who, Star Trek, Sherlock Holmes.
Books
+Jacob Zolt true dat!
THE WALKING DEAD #1
Star Trek, Doctor Who, Don't need another 🙂
Star trek doctor who Sherlock holmes
To the rule breakers, shame shame! It's supposed to be a limiting question on purpose. I'd take an electronic reader and the world's library too. That's not the point. Lol 😉
Seems the popular choice is for quantity of shows so my logic on choices is fairing pretty well. 🙂
Bottom three
The options are a total sausage fest.
Lord of the Rings
Doctor Who
Batman
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes, and Star Trek.
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes, Firefly/Serenity
lotr, lotr, lotr
Easy… Trek, Dr Who, Kevin Smith.
Who, Holmes & Trek. There just weren't enough Firefly episodes produced…
+Valerie Douglas You know… True. Totally needed the Buffyverse thrown in. Good call.
I am most of them
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes, Star Trek. (Where's Harry Potter?)
Have watched 5 of them.
egg
The current marvel movie universe
Walking dead
Star Trek and Breaking Bad / done! ?
All I need is Doctor Who and Sherlock Holmes
#ilikebooks #ipostbooks
Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Sherlock Holmes.
Why aren't the Marvel animated tv shows included? Trek includes ST:TAS animated.
Lord of the Rings, Sherlock Holmes, and Doctor Who.
Who, Trek and Wars. lotR an Firefly runners up. The rest not even tempting.
Doctor Who Star Wars Sherlock Holmes
Star Trek, Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes
Doctor who, star trek, walking dead:-)
I would watch Star Wars, Doctor Who and Sherlock Holmes
Where's harry potter?
StarTrek, Batman, Indiana Jones
Star wars star trek and Dr. Who if I am good can I have a fourth?
Star trek , The Walking Dead, Sherlock Holmes
Doctor Who, Star Trek, and Star Wars!
I choose them because I like them, and I would love to see all of DW and ST.
Logically, it's Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Sherlock Holmes. This is because they have the most episodes and thus the most variety, and thus less boredom. Plus many of them are brilliant. The other ones, no matter how good they are, will get old after a couple of decades (I'm planning on 12 more decades personally).
Breaking Bad should be included 🙂
Lord of the rings 3 times
sherlock holmes, doctor who and star trek
Star Trek, BtAS, and Firefly/Serenity. Hands down. I don't think I could give up the first or last ones, and BtAS is a huge part of my childhood that I'd love to revisit at some point.
Star Wars had too much 😛 to make the cut. I can read LotR and enjoy myself much more. I've never gotten into GoT. The Marvel Movies have been kind of meh lately. Couldn't get into Dr. Who (sorry, I tried). Not into Zombies. I've never even heard of Kevin Smith before. I prefer the Sherlock Holmes books to the movies I've seen. Aaaaand… well, Indiana Jones is decent, but if the franchise is following the footsteps of Crystal Skull I'll pass.
Star Trek, Indiana Jones and the current Marvel Movie universe because I grew up with this stuff. Every time I watch these adventures, it takes me back to a good time . . . good memories.
Game of Thrones, Doctor Who………and Star Wars
current Marvel (is a MUST), Doctor Who, and Lord of the Rings – the things I've grown up with <3
Dr.Who, Sherlock Holmes, & the current Marvel movie Universe…the 1st 2 would give me 70+ yrs of viewing alone.
Star trek, Doctor who….. and possibly indiana jones?
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes and Star Wars.
Star Wars, Firefly, Kevin Smith
Marvel, doctor who, star wars
Game of Thrones/Sherlock/ Indiana Johnes :)))
Firefly, sherlock and Indiana Jones
Star Trek, Doctor Who…that'll do me.
Game of thrones,the walking dead,Sherlock holms
Easy, Star Trek, Sherlock and doctor who
game of thrones the walking dead and the current marvel stuff.

GOT, Doctor Who and Sherlock Holmes
Ill just choose two Sherlock and the doctor
Dr who firefly and Sherlock
Buffy/Angel
Mystery Science Theater 3000/Rifftrax
Porn
😀
a
I could probably get by just with trek…. Not the Abrams ones of course, but the real ones.
Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Firefly/Serenity.
Walking dead, marvel & batman animated series.
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes Firefly/ Serenity
I agree with +Laura Sharp-Wheadon . maybe instead of sherlock i would go game of thrones or star trek. but at this stage i am going for what she said
Star wars star trek the walking dead.
batman, doctor who and star trek 🙂
Oh, and Twin Peaks ????
Dr Who….Star Trek…..Firefly and Serenity.
Sherlock , Doctor Who , LOTR
Star Trek, Kevin Smith (Including the podcasts 🙂 ), Doctor Who
The Walking Dead 3Xs….. That's it!!!!
Well, BBC Sherlock will probably take to rest of our lives to come out with the rest of the series. And Doctor Who will be around to celebrate its 100th anniversary at the least. (I wanted to write "Dr Who" just to troll, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. XD)
Choose 3 to watch the rest of my life?
1. The Avengers 1961-1969
2. The Prisoner 1967-1968
3.Danger Man / Secret Agent 1960-1968
"Firefly and Serenity" because I already do that. I'll add "Sherlock Holmes" and "Star Trek".
There is something about The Verse that has crawled into my soul. I watch Firefly and Serenity from start to finish several times a year, and I still put it on if it happens to be playing on telly. As for Sherlock Holmes, he was my first literary crush. I devoured his stories as a young girl, and have read them many times. I enjoy the programmes and films because of that. I've been watching Start Trek since I was a girl. The only original airing I missed was Enterprise, and I caught up with it a few years ago. Up until I moved to England, I saw every film in cinema, and usually on the day it came out.
From that list I pick: Star Trek, Firefly and The Walking Dead.

Wtf have you done, +Scott Cramer.
Gah!
They're just making shit up now.

<mute>
Dr who, walking dead star wars
Doctor Who, Firefly, Sherlock.
Doctor Who, Sherlock, Star Trek.
This is hurting my head but I think I would go with:
Star Wars – easy 1st choice.
Doctor Who – because there is more episodes than I will ever have time to watch.
Batman, no Star Trek, or maybe Firefly arrrrhhhhh!!!
Ok 3rd choice would be Batman – I couldn't go without some Bat in my life 🙂
Marvel, Batman, LOTR
+Sherlin Tardisson thank you. It's only half a joke about the capitalization and spelling that bothers me but my "OCD" kinda drives me crazy when people DO that. Lol
Hello there. Do you like bow ties I like bow ties I haven't slept for three days!
#Whovians in one post.
Impossible to pick only three
Star Wars, Sherlock, Indy?. Then I'd find one of the people with Who and take it from them.
Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and Sherlock Holmes
Firefly and Serenity, Batman: The Animated Series, and Game of Thrones.
Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, and Star Trek
Kevin Smith's movies for sure.
Star Trek/Walking Dead/Sherlock
LOTR, Star Trek, Dr Who
Doctor Who, Walking Dead, and Indiana Jones.
Star Trek all series/movies (lots of material there), Firefly and Serenity (love the writing), Doctor Who (just cause there's variety)
Marvel universe, Doctor who, the walking dead
Firefly and Serenity / Doctor Who / Babylon 5, Crusade and the movies.
Who / Trek / Firefly
Doctor Who/The Walking Dead/Sherlock Holmes ^-^
Lets be having a bit of Babylon 5 on that list please.
And of course this could be read a different way – as in… the length of your remaining lifespan is determined by the overall length of viewing time from the choices above. If that proved to be the case, is your answer different?
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes and star wars
Hmmm Doctor Who, Star Trek, and Sherlock.
doctor who, star wars, and indiana jones
What, no Battlestar Galactica?
Firefly, Sherlock and doctor who
doctor who, sherlock ,indiana
Doctor who starwars walking dead
Star Trek && Lord of the Rings && Dr. Who
Doctor Who, Star Trek, and Marvel.
Star Trek, Doctor Who and Batman: TAS
Star trek: as trekkie from heart!!!!!
Sherlock holmes: bcz I like ehm as well!
Indiana Jones: just cz!
Lmao every body says
Star trek! XD
LotR, Doctor Who, Marvel
doctor who, fire fly and serenity, the walking dead
Walking Dead, Marvel, Dr. Who
Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes and LOTR, since it includes the Hobbit movies.
JUST 3?
No Buffy on that list? Twilight Zone? Outer Limits? Twin Peaks? Ghost in the Shell? Miyazaki?
nopenopenopenope
Maybe Doctor Who.
Doctor Who, LOTR & no idea/..;)
current marvel movie universe , sherlock holmes and star trek
Lord of the rings star wars Doctor Who
Also the walking dead, batman…etc
Therefore star wars isn't the best because I don't know how they get the different planets than us
Doctor Who, Star Wars, Sherlock (not Robert Downey Jr. movies, they're rubbish)!!!
Star Wars, Doctor Who, and…ugh I need more than 3…I will choose Sherlock
I think the Whedon choices should be the other two series- (-es? s'? idk): Buffy and Angel. I'd happily bump one of my three to choose that one. Otherwise, I'm going Trek, Doctor Who, and Walking Dead.
Easy!
Doctor Who
Kevin Smith
Star Trek
Star trek! Star wars! And LOTR… Difficult decision!
1) Star Trek all series and esp. Because there are hundreds of them and their all pretty good
2) Firefly because its 13 hours of bliss followed by a lifetime of withdrawal
3) Doctor Who because its classy and fun on the bun. The BBC is highly original and there's more eps of Doctor Who than there are of Sherlock.
star trek, doctor who and indiana jones…..that is a bit hard
Doctor Who, Sherlock, The Walking Dead! 😀
Batman, star trek and holmes
Oh, this is easy. Star Trek, Firefly and Batman. Granted, Firefly is short on content, but that content never gets old.
Let's say LOTR, Doctor Who, and I'm on the fence between Star Wars and Sherlock.
+Christian Moomaw you sound like you need this:
https://plus.google.com/111486833234560300499/posts/9GwwgGCQnt3
+Scott Cramer … catching up on G+ … I'd have to say Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Firefly / Serenity
Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, and Sherlock
Firefly doctor who and Babylon 5
For me it would be Star Trek, Star Wars for sure and tough choice between LotR and Firefly/Serenity 😉
