What do Chiffers watch on tv, if anything?
New season is just around the corner and I’m wondering whether anyone has any faves other than BBC regulars.
I’m a big fan of Amazing Race, Scrubs and House.
I really like House. Don’t do much reality TV. I like Law & Order, particularly SVU and I like CSI- the original one, in Vegas.

Can’t say as I watch anything on network t.v. other than PBS’s Nova & Frontline. Cable series have hooked me though; Sopranos and Six Feet Under. I’m going to be lost without SFU. Here’s hoping HBO’s “Rome” will be worth the time.
I’ll agree with ya there, Moor…House is a great show. I don’t watch much syndicated television because it’s just way to insulting to my intelligence, but I have a soft spot for house…
Greg House is a great deal like Sherlock Holmes, mebey that’s why I like the show.
I’m quite fond of Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends.
Yes, I’m still a kid.
The only TV ever watched here is The Sopranos, Law and Order,C.S.I - Vegas and Miami,can’t get into N.Y. at all - and the first two episodes of Lost have aired here last week so I’ll be seeing how that shapes up.Looks interesting so far.
Slan,

Hmm…
We haven’t regularly watched any show since Firefly.
We occasionally watch a CSI (Las Vegas) rerun on cable, mainly 'cause it’s the best thing on when we’re having dinner. (Some might think that CSI is too graphic for dinner-time viewing, but my wife’s minor in college was forensic anthropology. CSI can’t compete with that for “graphic” and still make it past the censors.)
My TV has not felt the tickle of electricity since . . . oh . . . hmmm . . . that last hurricane in November of 2004. Prior to that, it was the hurricane in September, and prior to that it was the one in August.
Oh, wait, that’s not true. I have had it on since then . . . for those two hurricanes in June that hit the Gulf Coast, as there was a possibility that one would hit here and the other got us with the northeast edge.
How do you feel about Cheese?
I tell you what I won’t be watching.
I saw a preview of the pilot for Inconceivable (I think it’ll be on NBC).
Yuck. It’s like they tried to make Nip/Tuck more palatable for network
TV by setting it in a fertility clinic.
That being said, Scrubs is good, good TV.
My coworker just lent me his 1st season boxset
(I only started watching the show this past season),
and it is great. Go out and buy it. Seriously, right now.
I’ll wait.
House, Monk and Rescue Me (even tho’ its feeelthy). Oh yeah, the Dirtiest Jobs thing on Discovery is a hoot…last week the guy did EVERYTHING you have to do on a pig farm, including AI.
The Weather Network. It amazes me how they can stand there for a four-hour shift mindlessly repeating the same info, along with the same pithy remarks and glib comments, over and over and over …

I watch…TV! 
CSI, The Simpsons, Family Guy, King of the Hill, Lost, Stargate SG-1, and hoping to watch a new show coming to NBC, Surface.
I don’t watch tv…
unless it’s Survivor (which I am totally embarrassed to admit to) or American Idol (which I’m equally embarrassed to admit to). Other than that I don’t watch anything TV wise. Oh, if I can get PBS in, I may sit and watch Antiques Roadshow once in a while. But I tend to forget it’s on.
Very little really… Sometimes Southpark or The Simpsons, The News, good quiz shows (University Challenge), a few documentaries.
There is no show that I’d stay home from the pub to watch.
I’d happily ditch the TV altogether if the wife didn’t have a couple of favourite shows.
House
Queer Eye for the Straight Guy
Numbers
Father Ted
Those are my regulars…the shows I watch each week, if I have the chance. I also enjoy several Animal Planet shows, particularly Emergency Vets and Animal Precinct.
We loved “Project Runway” and “Last Comic Standing,” and hope to see both of them back this season.

Movies and news. I don’t watch comedy or drama shows, although I would probably enjoy shows like CSI and Law and Order. There’s simply not enough time in a day to watch much TV.
Since I started whistling a short year-and-a-half ago, I find myself whistling through movies anyway.
According to the local paper, Scrubs may be on its last leg. They just haven’t been able to capture an audience, so they’re only doing a half season this year, starting (hopefully) in January. Real shame if that show goes off the air.
Guess what came in the mail for me today!!! Father Ted’s Holy Trilogy, it’ll be a lonnnnnnggggg night.
PS Did anyone else read about how CSI has tainted juries everywhere? Apparently after the Blake murder trial, some of the jurors said something about him being not guilty because there was no GSR on his clothes. The prosecutor called them “incredibly stupid”. 
Oooo, and home improvement shows. Not the dopey contest ones, or imitation Survivor ones, but the ones where they have professionals who know what the f**k they’re doing, like Ask This Old House, New Yankee Workshop, American Woodworker, Holmes on Homes …

Oh, and it being summer, I forgot…Tony and I are total “24” junkies.
