Totally getting you… Then again, obsession shows are so special, it's only natural that there'd be few of them, in a way.
Plus, I can barely manage ONE show. Don't know what I'd do if I had more.

I see what you mean… The books were fantastic, but the religious subtext was… big, and rather questionable.
Uh-huh. I know I'm missing out on good stories, but I'd probably get too cross to keep reading. Which isn't good.

Same here—that's the kind of question I hate to answer… XD I haven't read Kim…
I devoured the Pern books when I was younger, and lots of Diana Wynne Jones, and Dune, and the Hitchhiker's Guide, just to put down what immediately springs to mind. Oh and Dorothy L. Sayer's Peter Wimsey novels. (He's my favourite detective!) Also love C.S.Lewis, and am slowly becoming acquainted with T.S.Eliot. (mmmm, poetry.) But Kim is the one book I can come back to, over and over and over again, and never tire of. (I sort of can't imagine watching Doctor Who without knowing Kim, btw.)
