If it was just the first two seasons I'd give the edge to BSG.   But taken over the whole run of the shows:

True Lies was a solid, over-the-top action movie.    The thing that amazes me though is that Tom Arnold is actually good in it, unlike everything else I've seen him in.

No having ballot initiatives that mandated spending and other ballot initiatives that cut taxes were what bankrupted the state.    Not to mention the same bad economy that hit the rest of the country.   But then that also got him into power with the silly recall election.
