This season of 24 sucks major. I though it was going to be as exciting as the last season but I have fallen asleep on every episode so far. I'm very disappointed.

I agree. We used to watch 24 religiously every season til this one. We quit watching about 3-4 episodes in. Plus, Heroes is on at the same time, and I like that show MUCH better. I have so little time for TV anymore...

TiVo or .torrent is your friend. Seriously.

I used to follow the Daily Show (have to download it, doesn't air over here. Stewart is worth it, though) Rome, House M.D. Battlestar Galactica and Dead Like Me, but my head would explode if I tried to do it on current TV. Now, the episodes sit on my hard-drive to be viewed at a point of time convenient to me Smiley

I like the whole downloading TV thing better myself as well.

Its so much easier to watch a show when you dont have to wait through commercials, and you can just go strait through the storyline without having to wait a day or a week between episodes. 

However sometimes it is really hard to find what you want and even then you are lucky if you get everything....

*sigh*

but i guess it could be worse  Smiley

Meh, I'm a busy lady, so if I have to start TiVo-ing in order not to miss something, I feel like I'm watching too much TV!   Wink

Currently I watch LOST, Heroes, Daily Show, Colbert Report, and Countdown With Keith Olbermann. That's about it. And I don't always catch Daily, Colbert, or Olbermann. Just when I can. (Being that they're on every week day.) There's a lot of other shows out there I like, such as The Office, and a few others. I just don't have the time to watch...

I only watch TV for Football. Perhaps during meals as well I'll turn on some random stuff, but my TV is only for watching Football and other sports now.

I don't watch a tone of T.V., but I'd have to say my three most favorite shows would be: C.S.I. New York; Law and Order, S.V.U.; (and) Jeopardy.

I know in my house I actually listen to the radio more than I watch television, but when I do watch something, it will usually be Doctor Who, Rolf on Art, Have I Got News for You, Mock the Week, My Family, Robin Hood, Ray Mears' Extreme Survival/Bushcraft, Simpsons, and lastly the Avengers. Occasionally I will watch the music channel too, but only if they're playing something decent.

Come to think of it, two other shows/broadcasts that I enjoy watching are CBC's Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday, and the Antique Road Show, not that I'm an antique expert by any means at all, but I just find it sort of intriguing.

I don't have time for much of anything these days, let alone much tv, so mostly I watch LOST, Prision Break, Dateline, and the re-runs of Alias if I am lucky.  Wink

Yay!  Fellow Prison Break fan!!!
I also love Charmed and Gilmore Girls.
Sadly, Charmed ended last year, but my friends own a lot of the seasons....
I sometimes, but don't follow religiously, watch The Office and House.
Reruns of Star Trek are also awesome!

Can I just say, on Saturday the first episode of a Doctor Who two-parter (what with the new series being in full swing and all) was absolutely classic. It was a really quality storyline, and the clifflanger at the end made it all the more poignant. Wales be on top form right now, says I.

Thought I'd try and resurrect this one a bit.  I'm a big fan of CSI: New York, but not so much of the other CSI's.  Actually, I don't watch a lot of tv anyway - rather read a book.  To those of you who like CSI, which one is your favorite?
