If you were stuck on a desert island......

[Elendil]

Before you panic, you have and endless supply of vaping materials so all is well...............

Coincidentally, this desert island also comes equipped with a DVD player, 52" HD TV and 2 libraries with:

1. Every TV show ever made on DVD

AND

2. Every book ever printed

Here's the catch...........Once you check out a TV show or book you must keep it, and you are limited to 5 TV shows and 5 books for the duration.
Give us your list of the 5 in each category.
I'll start

The West Wing
Star Trek Voyager
ER
The Shield
The Sopranos

3. The Stand (I always read this when I'm sick.)
4. The Complete Hitchhiker's Guide
