A few comedy series re-runs, nothing spectacular. I'm more of a TV browser than devoted series fan. :)

Well Holden Pike got me into watching TV again... the dumb bastard!
He did so by introducing me to a little show called "Deadwood" about three or four years ago.
The primary reason I dislike watching TV on TV, is because of commercials, silly laugh tracks associated with sitcoms which I generally hate, and horrible writing. However surprising if you can weed through all the garbage reality TV shows, lame comedies and such there are worthwhile TV shows.
Currently I'm watching "House" thanks to my girlfriend, and having caught up to the point where they are at now in season 6, I'm watching "Lost"
Occasionally I do go back to watch "Deadwood"
"Deadwood"
"House"
and
"Lost"
I think after I am done watching or rather caught up watching "Lost" I am going to try to tackle watching "The Sopranos."
I do enjoy shows with continuous story and character arcs.

"Deadwood"
"House"
and
"Lost"
If you can sit and watch Lost and House, then you really should give Dexter, Sons Of Anarchy and Mad Men (the best current US show) a try. Also, if you've not seen it, then The Wire sounds like something you'd adore.

Hung. The bf loves it. I think he has a man=crush on Thomas Jane, which is understandable.

at this moment
Midsummer Murders
House
Fringe
CSI Las Vegas
Top Gear
Battlestar Galactica
House
Lost
How i met your mother
Dexter
I regularly watch Psych, NCIS, Burn Notice, usually Law & Order particularly the older reruns when they had some of the more interesting detectives.
I used to like Monk until it started getting silly. Didn't even bother to tune in to see who killed Trudi. House used to be good when he was just bullying patients before pulling a cure out of his hat. Then they started all those soap opera interrelationships among the cast. I really got burned out when they had the sheriff's deputy hounding him about his drug habit. Booooring!
Just a couple of programs at this point:
Lost
24
Smallville
Weeds
V
My views on TV pretty much align exactly with Viddy's, so I record any show to insure I can remove the commercials later. Weeds and 24 I watch on DVD.

I agree with you about what's happened to House and Monk, rufnek. I still watch House, but it's not really must see tv.
I watch every single episode of the following:
House
Castle
Better Off Ted
The Simpsons
Scrubs
Lost (sorta; catching up all at once)
I agree that the interpersonal drama on House is a bit much, but I don't feel it substantially detracts from the episodes. I thought the midseason premier in January, "The Down Low," was one of the best of the entire series. Certainly one of the funniest.
Sadly, I think there's a good chance that three of the series above get themselves all canceled and whatnot after this season.

These days it's all about The Wire for me. Pretty well the only current show I really like is The Office. I am looking forward to the final season of Lost, just to see what it's all about. The show can annoy me sometimes, but I still like it. Definitely won't be watching it week to week, I'll download it from somewhere when it's all done. Besides, I don't have cable.

Nice; how far along are you? I saw the first three episodes years ago but didn't continue. Then I saw the entire series on DVD for $99 a couple months ago and snagged it up. Looking forward on sprinting through it a few months from now, most likely.
It's nice and compact. Simple. I like it:

I think I'm at episode five of season three. The show is amazing and if you're a fan it really hooks you in. Have you seen the page for it on imdb? I think it has a 9.7 rating, that's crazy. That box set looks really cool, Yoda, slick. That's hours of quality television for you right there without having to wait for a new episode to air.
The library down the road is sweet (as I've said before), they have all five seasons and I've just been burning copies for me and my bro so we can watch it at our own pace. Dan's (Plainview) father-in-law borrowed the discs Dan was done with and he's hooked too now.
I've been restricting myself to no more than one episode a day lately, trying to stretch it out as long as I can.

Yeah, it's cool to have that box sitting in my room knowing that so many people recommend it, have called it the best show of all-time, etc. Nice to know I've got that in front of me. The three episodes I saw weren't enough to draw me in, but I figure it takes some time, and my appreciation of a certain kind of television has changed quite a bit since then.
Anyway, very happy to hear another person speak its praises. I like it when a television series reaches a critical mass, where a certain number of people whose opinions I respect/often agree with insist I have to see it. I don't think I've ever not loved a show after its reached that point, and The Wire has cleared that word-of-mouth bar with room to spare.

I don't have cable, so I miss out on a lot, but I currently watch:
House (I still love this show, don't agree with people who think it's not as good as it was)
American Idol (shut up, everyone has a guilty pleasure)
Human Target (Ok, yeah, this might get cancelled, cause it's on Fox, but I'll enjoy it till it's off.)
The Office (My personal favourite)
Family Guy (self explanatory)

Currently:
House
24
Lost
American Idol
Caprica
MadMen
Modern Family
Glee
Ghost Hunters (it's like sherbet)
Basically, the only series I watch [of my own free will] are "The Simpsons" and "24", but when I want to snuggle up with Brenda, which is usually every chance possible unless something's up, I'll watch with her "CSI: Miami", "NCIS" (Mark Harmon is her sexbomb currently, at least outside of our residence), "NCIS: Los Angeles", "Criminal Minds", "CSI: New York" and "Project Runway" along with some of the cooking shows. I used to watch "Jeopardy!" religiously, but they've dumbed it down so much, it's hard to watch allegedly-intelligent people show off their ignorance. Maybe it's time for me to reapply to that show, although now I'd be considered a "Senior". :cool:

...but they've dumbed it down so much...
I was wondering why I was getting some of the questions right lately.
