Like any long-running series, some are better than others. Best film series, though... Well, the Laurel & Hardy series, naturally. I am also partial to the eight Frankenstein pictures made by Universal in the '30s and '40s.

Mouth Breather Posts: 10,354 Group: Members Member #13 Joined: September 3, 2005	This thread has sure broadened my idea of what a series is. I never would have thought of Laurel and Hardy, yet it is obviously a series (protagonists keeping the same name seems to be the only defining thing).
