mine was Highlander, though Deep Space 9 grew on me with time.
Northern Exposure and Seinfeld. Northern Exposure is one of the very few shows that can't be streamed anywhere (Maude is another).
90210 (the characters -- obviously not the actors -- were a year ahead of me in school, so it was relatable) and Melrose Place (Michael Mancini remains a Top-5 all-time television character).
Married with Children and The Simpsons were also in my must-watch list.

Once Dillon lost Toni, I soured on it.
I too was a class behind them.
That lasted about a season or so, and then all of a sudden they gave them all actual careers. Because, you know, there's a huge market for 20-year-olds without degrees or experience in the Los Angeles business scene.
At that point, they had 2 problems: Party of Five had taken over the teen-angst evening viewers and Melrose Place still had the market cornered on the young adult nighttime soap audience. (And Buffy the Vampire Slayer was starting to take off). 90210 didn't really have a direction anymore.
I was fine having her pass out at the prom, but anything beyond that was torture.
Although, Highlander was a great show...wife and I both watched it, which made it fun. That one would definitely be on my short list.
Did you happen to see The Straight Story? It's so un-Lynchlike, I would think you would enjoy it.
Twin Peaks and Dune were just normal bad, I thought. (And I think Dune is one of the best sci-fi books I've ever read.) But, Eraserhead is what truly ruined me on Lynch...a uniquely awful movie, IMO. That's when I decided he was just playing practical jokes on his audiences. But, obviously tastes differ.

Have you seen it? Is it any good?
