I don't know if there is one of these already, but too bad.

Shows I watch:

Battlestar Galactica
Rome
House
Stargate Series
Prison Break

Those are the ones I watch every episode of. I just watched BSG S3EP20 and man it was amazing. EP 20 is worth watching the first 3 seasons for. Excellent show. Rome is also very excellent, I am about to watch S2EP10 here in a minute. House is good and Prison Break is excellent. Stargate is like part of my life now (10 years anyway), till they canceled SG-1, but what can you do. Prison Break amazes me with all the twists and turns they can put into the story. It's crazy. So what show do you all watch?

I watch several shows.

My Name is Earl - Brilliant show! Highly recommended!
Prisonbreak - I'm finding Season 2 pretty boring
Lost - I started watching Season 2 and now I just can't watch, no matter how tedious it can get.
The Apprentice - Yes that show with Trump. It's alright...
Survivor - When its on.

How did you find the 20th episode of season 3? When four of the final five are revealed! I love it - cant wait for season 4, which is presumably going to be the last season.

Prison break, and Rome at the moment. The latter is excellent, in almost every way.

I don't have television, always buy my series. Currently very much enjoying Shogun, the music is a bit oldfashioned but the rest holds up pretty well. Also loved Rome, not as good as I-Claudius (imvho) but it is amazing how they make the city seem real and alive. Lost is also fun, but I hate the Dan Brownist way of building tension, never more then a tease. Watch it for that anna lucia chick mostly, looks so cute with a gun! Love miniseries, a movie is just too short to tell a good story.

The one I've seen several times (bought the DVD) and spread among my friends is Six Feet Under. Directed by Alan Ball (American Beauty). Huge.

The only show I currently make a point of tuning in for every week is the second series of Life on Mars. Well, I watch Neighbours too.

House is my favourite contemporary show, but they're not broadcasting the third series in the UK yet.

Is that the one with the gay undertaker? If it is I think it stinks, no action, only over dramatized drama.

It is, indeed.

I Haven't smelled anything odd while watching it though.... Must be the stench filter I installe don my TV!!

Well I think I wouldn't have stood more than 5 minutes in front of it 10 years ago...

Could this come from my old age (32)? Maybe not.. I think my father would say the same thing as what you said...

There's a french proverb which says that colours and tastes cannot be argued about.

24
Lost

Heroes
Battlestar Galactica
Kidnapped

Desperate Housewives (don't laugh!)
Dr Who

I haven't really had the oppurtunity to watch much the last few months, but of and on Carnivalé, the best series I've ever watched since Shogun. Also catching up on The State Within, a great British thriller. When it's on I'll definitely be watching Spooks again, and when I get the chance I'll catch up on Life on Mars; first episode wasn't too promising though. We'll be getting Battlestar Galactica on DVD sometime so that's one that looks promising, and I'd love to watch Enterprise properly.

Still hoping for a new series of Firefly

I usually avoid network television. The current shows I routinely watch are:

Dirty Jobs
Mythbusters
Deadliest Catch
Most Extreme Elimination

My wife also has me watching several shows of HGTV (Home and Garden) which are surprisingly interesting.

In the oldies category, I'm watching M*A*S*H reruns and Babylon 5 on DVD.

The shows I watch regularly are:

Battlestar Galactica
House
NCIS
Numb3rs
South Park

I would watch Rome again (I watched the 1st season pretty relgiously), but I'm reluctant to shell out the extra cash just to add the HBO channels to my cable TV package. So for now, I settle for reading the recaps on Television Without Pity.

Holy crap! I spent that entire episode going "WTF??!". I was tripping out the entire time. Great episode, though!

Lost - been watching it since the beginning. Maybe it's why I have a higher tolerance with it than most. Because I've invested more time into it.

Heroes - Likewise, although I like the pace better than Lost's. Although the month-long hiatuses are getting annoying.

South Park - although not as much recently because it shares a timeslot with Lost.

Survivor - Yes, I still watch it.

Amazing Race - See above.

I don't really watch many shows with regularity, a few are:

Jeapordy- Not a huge Trebek, but the show's still usually interesting.

Pardon the Interruption- I pay more attention than I should to sports.

Family Guy- Often stupid, often ridiculous, occasionally offensive, nearly always funny.

Futurama- See above.

Samurai Champloo- Witty, quirky, good action, unfortunately the series ended quickly. Definitely an "interesting" twist on the time period.

Oh yeah, forgot Amazing Race.

The last season we got was the Family one. Gah! I almost stopped watching the show after that. It was just horrible.
