Favorite stuff on TV

Contributor: P'Gell P'Gell
Yeah yeah yeah, it's a wasteland.

But, still, I enjoy TV from time to time.

What do you like to watch? Favorites? Things you will never be caught dead watching?

I LOVE House I know it's "formulaic." Meh. He's hot (My Man looks just like him) and it's funny, although its been a bit of a soap opera the last season.

We have just started watching Raising Hope which we call "Baby Hope" ("Hurry, Baby Hope is on!") It's done by the same production company which did My Name is Earl one of the funniest shows ever.

Modern Family is one of the best show in recent years. SO funny. We then watch The Middle by default, but probably wouldn't if it wasn't right before Modern Family (although our youngest child IS Brick. In a female body.)

We try to catch Oddities which is a real life show about a bizarre antique shop. They sell things like skeletons in caskets, human teeth, antique electronic, a lot of old Victorian Era Steam Punk stuff, taxidermy, deformed baby animals in jars, torture devices (they turned down buying a Violet Wand set from someone, and I was so upset) and heaven knows what else. Its a great show. It's on the Syfy channel.

We still enjoy Nova on PBS, always have.

Oh, and Mythbusters one of our favorites. My Man loves to see them blow shit up.

What do you like? (I know I'm gonna get a lot of "I don't watch TV." That's OK, if you DO watch TV, and most of us do, what do you like?)

I will never be caught dead watching anything like The Bachelor or anything about people from New Jersey (unless it's The Sopranos) or (WTF?) Wipe Out.

Desperate Housewives, Monk, Chuck, Bones, Fringe, Law & Order Criminal Intent... I browse shows I can find on Hulu or Netflix streaming. Oh, and Dexter.

Chuck--So happy it got picked up for another season (a short one, I think, but I'll take it)!

Jeopardy!--I've seen enough ads for denture paste to last a lifetime.

Modern Family (we also often end up watching The Middle by default, but I wouldn't seek it out.)

Parks and Recreation (might be the best show on television)
Community
The Office
30 Rock (Hmmm, guess what we do on Thursday nights? )

We also watch Bones on Hulu.

I do not watch much tv. But master chef is ok. Hawaii 5.0 was pretty good also. PBS has some good shows on every once in a while.

I like House and Mythbusters too sometimes.

I watch George Strombolopolis Tonight more than anything else. That is if we're talking watching TV actually on TV. It's a late-night Canadian talk show

I'm really stoked about the new season of Breaking Bad coming out... and I just started getting into Project Runway this year. I don't watch either of these shows live on TV though.

Hmmm... other than that I really like Firefly and Dexter, but I've watched all of those by now

I'm a fan of House, and Chuck - though I've only recently gotten into it. And The Mentalist, The Clone Wars, Simpsons and Lie To Me.

Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Dexter, Say Yes to the Dress, Fashion Police, Keeping Up w/ the Kardashians, So You Think You Can Dance, lots of other stuff. I would never be caught dead watching Teen Moms, Jersey Shore (or Jersey Whores as my room mate calls it, lol), The Hills, or pretty much any show on MTV. Although, I do kind of like Teen Wolf.

We don't watch a TON of TV (we do more video games and movies) but do like some. We love Stargate (all of 'em!), South Park, Family Guy, Futurama, used to LOVE Iron Chef before they Americanized it. ::eye roll:: We also like some wonky shows like Ninja Warrior, and Most Extreme elimination challenge.

Oh, there's a new season of [Breaking Bad]? That was a great show, just it was on so late.

I heard Mad Men is skipping one season. I love this show, but their whole, "Oh, every episode is like a full length movie and we're SO tired." is getting old. Just have a 24 episode season like everybody else and quit whining! They are going to lose continuity and viewers by skipping a season. Stupid move on their part. I think some of these shows really think they are the only shows some people watch and they get really pretentious and it ruins the show. Just put together a good season and show us what you can do.

We really liked the Japanese Iron Chef a lot better, too. Anything with less or NO Bobby Flay is good for me.

I LOVE Oddities!!!! It's not on nearly enough.

And The Big Bang Theory & Bones.

I also really love Mad Men and Breaking Bad.

I've seen every episode of Dexter and Weeds, although their current seasons aren't as good as they used to be.
