Should I Even Watch TV Anymore?

[Fozzie_DeBear]

Well since we only have ghetto-vision (rabbit ears), our choices are limited, but the only shows I make an effort to see are:

Corner Gas (I rarely see this as this is the same night as Toastmasters)
Apprentice (Randal you stud!!)
Family Guy

I guess that given all the love give to this show LOST I should finally take a look tonight.

Watch Lost....you won't regret it.

[kermitology]

Wednesday nights are my band practice nights.. but my bassists wife did get Lost on DVD for Christmas.

The only thing I miss after cancelling my cable over a year ago is the sports highlights and the Flames games. But I'll usually make my way to a bar to catch the game and the sports highlights are ultimately trivial.

[the_only_turek_fan]

24 is really good Dan. As is the Apprentice.

I like to watch stuff on A & E like American Justice, Cold Case Files, and City Confidential.

And I am embarassed to say this, Desperate Housewives is pretty good as well.

Maybe if you told Dr. Maundy you were a fan he'd have given you all the answers to Analog Filters!

I can watch TLC for hours... until they start showing medical stuff.

Some shows worth taking a look at:

Battlestar Gallactica
Lost
Surface
Boston Legal
American Choppers

American Chopper is a great tv show. I try to watch the new ones when I can.

I still like to watch "House", and I watch "Corner Gas" (when it is new, holy OD on the reruns lately), but beyond those it is usually only sports and the occassional movie I watch.

Oh no you didn't...The War at Home? You can't be serious, I love that show. The daughter is hot, the dad is the man. How can you not? Yet other than that your taste in shows seems fine (have seen Corner Gas, mostly on DVD, and saw House once and thought it was very good). I don't watch a lot of TV, The War at Home believe it or not is actually the only show I have EVER tried to watch lately (and even then not very often).

Unless of course we include South Park which I have to download because the new eps. don't come on in Canada for a few months after they are on comedy central. Check them out, links to torrents at:

Dude.. The War at Home? You're brother is an awesome dude, you must have wanted to be different in every way or something. Eugh.....

[Eastern Girl]

Yeah, I have to agree that the War at Home is not a very good show. Fairly predictable and cliche. I am surprised it has lasted this long. How is it doing in the ratings?

I imagine many of FOX viewers love it.. "Finally replaced that damn Arrested Development with a show I can follow. I hate it when TV doesn't tell me when to laugh."

[Ranchlander]

TV sucks. The only stuff I watch are sports hilights, movies, and TrailerPark boys.

[Displaced Flames fan]

House
24
The Shield

Exceptional television.

Did you know the fifth sheild season premier is on tonight???? I have been downloadin them for the last four seasons, but now they are on 1 day after they are first run in the US......I am soooo pumped for this show. Hopefully, you have watched the first four seasons and are gonna watch the new one tonight

[calf]

agreed on all counts of "The Office".

Scrubs is also back on after a fall hiatus on Tuesday nights, thankfully.

That's about all I watch anymore.

[Mightyfire89]

Kermit, you need to watch "Rescue Me" on Showcase...it'll reaffirm your faith in the ol' idiot box. Until The Sopranos comes back, this is the best show there is. (It's currently in reruns)

It is funny you say the War at Home, I really like that show. To each his own I guess.

Trailer Park Boys is great, they just don't make enough shows though. There will be a movie this summer though, so that should be worth my while.

[Iginla & Sundin]

I'll just watch hockey and maybe sometimes wrestling.

When I'm bored and see that the L word is on I watch it only to see some lesbians.
