Just wondering what we all watch on tv.

My favourite modern show's got to be arrested development. Bastards cancelled it cause Americans (and a few canadians ill admit ;) ) are too retarded to get it.

An obviously the flying circus is my number one. Greatest. Show. Ever.

Theres entirely too many shows for me to list, lets just say all the shows on Discovery, the sitcom/cartoon block on Fox (including King of The Hill, god I love that show,) and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. House, Law and Order's are good as well.

I don't watch very much television unless it's a show that I get into... So far the shows that I do watch are:

The Sopranos
House
Dexter
Rescue Me
and I used to watch Nip/Tuck back in the first few seasons but I hadn't kept up with it as much.

Other than that I like Robot Chicken and Frisky Dingo.

Hey, hey....I loved that show. Actually a lot of people loved that show. There were tons of petitions floating around trying to get it back. FOX was too stupid to know it had a good thing. :)

The Daily Show, Colbert Report (really those two go hand in hand), and Scrubs. I used to watch Everybody Loves Raymond like it was my job, but that got old. I'm more a movie gal now, especially since we don't have a TV in my dorm room.

Heroes is #1 for me, but I'm fairly addicted to Coronation Street (blame my mom). I also watch The Office, Arrested Development, and The Colbert Report, if I remember when they're on.

Excellent new one on tonight called "Drive"
Some of the Joss Whedon team that worked on Buffy/Angel/Firefly are working on it... Tim Minears, Nathon Fillian, Amy Acker...same mix of action/drama/comedy etc..
Sorta like a fictional "Amazing Race" but in cars with no rules & the last team to finish each leg of the race marked for death instead of elimination. Same multiple story format as "Heroes" etc.. big mystery about who's holding the race and forcing them to participate by kidnapping their family etc..
Got a feeling this'll be as big as "Heroes" as long as the network gives it a chance to find an audience.

I was just watching an episode I'd never seen before, where these coal-miners kept going on strike until they found out the answers to questions like "what year was the treaty of Kent signed?" It was genius.

I don't watch anything on a regular basis. I just don't find anything all that interesting to be honest.

I'm with Leedog, i'm a tv junkie :p

I use to watch everyone loves raymond too, but you can't watch it everynight or it gets boring lol.. But, if you like that show, you might like King of Queens. I love that show.

-King of Queens
-Scrubs
-King of the Hill
-ATHF
-Futurama
-House
-Law & Order SVU
-Monk
-Colbert Report
-Rescue Me
-anything on FuelTv
-anything on Millitary Channel
-anything on Discovery

Oh, and I almost forgot, UFC is awesome too, Leedogg, you watch UFC? Do you have a favorite fighter? I think mine would proabley have to be Chuck Liddel, or maybe Geroge St. Pierre. (i'm actually about to watch UFC 69 on ppv)

That's most of my favorites.

I used to be absolutely hooked on Lost, but they're starting to REALLY push me this year. They're driving me nuts by introducing 20 new questions without answering any.

I love Heroes, Scrubs, Family Guy, South Park and the Simpsons as well.

Yea, I love the UFC. I like the Ice Man too and Randy Couture... GSP is a favorite as well, let me know when you've finished watching your ppv so that we can discuss.

Liddell and Tito have fought twice that I know of, I think.. Have you seen them? I won't tell you how it turned out, just in case.. But, my ppv just started, so i'll come back later so we can talk about it, I hope GSP beats sierra.

I can't wait till UFC 71 Liddell vs Jackson, that should be an awesome fight. I'm going for Liddell, cause Jackson won't be able to man handle liddell like he does other fighters, liddell is too good a wrestler.

anyway, i'll be back after this is over.

Chuck has owned Tito the last 3 times they've fought... they weren't even good fights to watch.

Now..... Matt Hughes and Chuck Lidell would be a good one. I don't think they're in the same weight class though.
