I usually like short tv shows that are happy and cheerful and junk, I dont like big drawn out dramas so much, and shows that you have to keep up with, or shows that bring you down. My favorite shows are generally (but not always) animated shows. I really like Hey Arnold, Home Movies and Bobs Burgers. They are mostly clean and not lewd or offensive, and they are fun and have characters I can really relate to and enjoy.
For movies, I am picky. I dont usually care for movies. But I have a few I really liked. I really liked The Labyrinth. I actually do like musicals, and I like that playful fantasy stuff, and I liked the characters and the puppets and everything else too : p And when I was a kid, I thought Jareth was like the coolest character ever, dunno why : p
I also really liked The Frighteners, with Michael J Fox. It was a way interesting story, I really got into the character, and I like spooky themes without the violence and horror, so that really made it a plus for me : p I always really liked that film a bunch.
