So. My partner, housemate (an old friend from high school), and myself like to occasionally have some devils lettuce. For the purpose of entertainment we have a giant playlist. It has everything from Archer to Adventure Time to 30 Rock to Scrubs to Angry Beavers. Something like 2900 files in there.
Anyway, one show I put in there was BHH. And, wow, it holds up. Sure, there's a lot of chesee, but I am going to state, as a fact, that the cheese helps it. You can tell, that everybody is having fun. And the mythology ends up being really solidly put together especially with distance from the disappointment occuring on the board at the time regarding the shows lack of future.
Interestingly enough, many things on the playlist get skipped because either we just saw it, or we had four episodes in a row of that show already, but not BHH.
Each episode that comes up gets watched. Since it's all random it's not in order, but the characters, and the writing, are apparently strong enough to make that irrelevant.
So there we have it, the show holds up extremely well, and more people should revisit it.
(And, yeah, without even my prompting, I had both of them ask me at different times "Marshall and Lucas are gay, right?)

It's been a big while since I last watched a BHH episode, and I've wondered myself if the show would hold up... This post may have given me the final push to actually rewatch the whole thing. Also, you managed to mention three shows I really like and two that I've been meaning to watch for some time now, so it seems I'd really enjoy that playlist of yours.

Really wish I had time to sit down and watch the whole series from beginning to end again. I've been strangely nostalgic lately...

I'm rewatching the whole show. I just started season 2. It's so easy to love it.

On New Year's Eve, I did what I had wanted to do for ages now...a glass of wine and a Strange Days re-watch. Watched several of the Season 1 episodes. Gouki is absolutely right- they hold up astonishingly well. Maybe it's just because I've been watching too much Disney Channel nonsense, but I was amazed by the amount of depth in these characters, the way the story plays out...it was just really really good. So I encourage anyone who is out there to give this show another watch. You won't regret it.
And if you want to chat about it, I'm still around...

Last re-watched in around 2011, been meaning to re-watch again some time. I did love this series, and have never found anything quite like it. Also loved this board back when it was active. Happy memories
