I don't tend to watch much television. But I do like :-

* Boston Legal (Denny Crane! Alan Shore is dreamy in a bewildering sort of way)
* Any TV show with Rupert Everett involved (I'm a pair of binoculars and a bush away from stalker, lol)
* Old Grey Whistle Test
* Blackadder
* Black Books
* I used to really love House Md, but I kind of lost the thread :s
* The IT Crowd
* Spaced
* Porridge
* Buffy The Vampire Slayer! (Giles. Need I say anymore?)
* Star Trek (Next Generation and Voyager. Deep Space Nine is a turd of the highest order. I cannot stress this enough. If I were on that space station I would open a gas line and light a bloody match, just to save the audience. Can you sense the contempt I have for this show?)
* That Mitchell And Webb Look
* Documentaries (I particularly love programs on Greek history and Mythology)

[HomerMcvie]

I've always been a sitcom guy. Let's see, through the years....
Seinfeld (#1!!!!!)
M*A*S*H
Everybody Loves Raymond(this has really become a new(er) favorite)
The Dick Van Dyke Show
Golden Girls
Home Improvement
Married, With Children

About the only new sitcoms I watch are:
The Middle (I LOVE this show).
Big Bang Theory(not crazy about it, but it's okay. Sheldon IS the show).

NON sitcoms are pretty much Food Network shows. I love:
Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives
Restaurant Impossible

I like to watch DDD too but recently read somewhere where Guy Fiari or whatever who does the show, has his people go in beforehand and check out the diner owners because he is extremely homophobic and won't be around gays. Now I don't know if this is true or not but if it is, he's in the wrong business because gays are everywhere in TV land. Also hard to believe too because if he is in fact this way, you'd think it'd be hard for him to avoid such people given all of the shows he does on both TV and cable and you just know someone in the production crew is gay. So, I don't know...

[louielouie2000]

I'm only going to list current TV shows:

Downton Abbey (this could easily be my fav TV show of all time)
Revenge (my guilty pleasure)
Family Guy
The Cleveland Show

Other than those, PBS is pretty much always on at my house. I watch the PBS News nightly, Washington Week, all the little cooking & home improvement shows, etc.

[mylittledemon]

I've actually become somewhat of a TV junkie of late... watching Dexter, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones, and Camelot.

My all time favourite show is still Seinfeld, though. It just never gets old for me. :)

[ButterCookie]

Oh! I forgot Downton, too! I am a Downton junkie.

[HomerMcvie]

My all time favourite show is still Seinfeld, though. It just never gets old for me. :)

Absolutely agree! The PERFECT foursome. Each character compliments the other 3, so perfectly.

[Macfanforever]

The CSI shows I enjoy.

[bucklind17]

Big faves:

SONS OF ANARCHY - I haven't been so hooked on a show in ages. I marathoned the first four seasons in less than two weeks. So gritty, amazing writing, awesome characters and a subject matter I never would have thought I'd find so fascinating. Can't wait for the next season!

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS - Anyone who thinks television isn't "good" anymore has never seen this show. One of the best written, directed and executed television shows I've ever seen. I felt I knew the characters and I cried when it ended because I would never get to see them again.

ER - Old favorite! Still love to watch eps now and then.

THE WEST WING - I'm finally starting this now and adoring it. It's another show where the writing and characters are so strong that it's hard to believe you're watching fiction. I feel like I learn a lot too!

REVENGE - An awesome evening soap with high drama and intriguing storyline. Wealth and murder and revenge, oh my.

Other faves:
Lost
Modern Family
Downtown Abbey
Weeds
Big Bang Theory

[Macfanforever]

[fringed n fab]

I don't watch much regular TV but mostly cable shows.

*I do like Price Is Right
*House Hunters on HGTV (who knew some people still live in outdated 30 year old decor)
*Property Virgins on HGTV
*The Vanilla Ice Project on DIY (I love to see what he does to Florida homes inside and out)
*How To Do Florida on Sun Sports Channel (because I think host Chad Crawford with his salt n pepper hair is too cute and funny to watch)
*Bath Crashers with Matt Muenster on DIY (because I adore him and think he's the sexiest handyman ever)
*Celebrity Ghost Stories
*I Survived... Beyond and Back (glad someone mentioned one of these earlier, what I find fascinating about both of these shows is how so many of different peoples experiences, and I know some quickly dismiss her, but so much of what many talk about are the very same things Sylvia Browne has talked about in her books all these years. I think you have to listen to people and make sense of it all. It's interesting no doubt)
*True Blood on HBO (because I love the show)

I saw the entire 1st season of "Dexter", thought it was great, but saw it when I was out of town & didn't have Showtime at home...now I have Showtime, but after missing 5 seasons, just didn't think I could catch up.

Watched "Fringe" when I had a DVR to record shows that were on simultaneously, but after relocating, I no longer have a DVR, missed so much I'll never catch up, unless I spring for the DVD set...much to my ongoing chagrin.

Cosby
Cheers
Friends
Seinfeld

Memphis Beat
ER (until about the last 2 seasons; kind of got tired of the constant cast changes)
The West Wing
Threshold
Monk
Nip/Tuck (first season only...got too goofy after that)

[SuperFleetwood]

I like interesting shows, i dont have favorites NO REALITY SHOWS I Dont watch much TV.

[Silver Springs]

The Office


I never really took to the UK version of The Office. Maybe because I have a profound hatred for arrogance, and Ricky Gervais secreted it from every pore in his body. Is the US version any better? I've been hearing good things about James Spader's contribution to the show. Is he as good an addition as I hear?

[SuperFleetwood]

its hilarious!!

I loved the UK version, but for Tim and Dawn rather than David Brent. I enjoy most Gervais projects, and I have a crush on Stephen Merchant, but that's another story.

The U.S. version was great for the first three seasons. After that it's been pretty hit or miss. I'm not really enjoying James Spader, personally.

[Macfanforever]

Late night TV.

Jay Leno
David Letterman
Jimmy Fallon Your truely was on the show with Stevie.
Nightline with Ted Koppel The new hosts are boring
Saturday Night Live

[cliffdweller]

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS - Anyone who thinks television isn't "good" anymore has never seen this show. One of the best written, directed and executed television shows I've ever seen. I felt I knew the characters and I cried when it ended because I would never get to see them again.

I am watching this series from start to finish. I am in the middle of the 3rd season right now. I love it! I grew up in small town Texas and it's like they filmed this in my high school. So I have to say, this show is very authentic. AND they filmed the series in Austin which was my home for the last 10 years so I get to see a lot of the old haunts. Great show!

[Dodfather]

ER - Old favorite! Still love to watch eps now and then.

THE WEST WING - I'm finally starting this now and adoring it. It's another show where the writing and characters are so strong that it's hard to believe you're watching fiction. I feel like I learn a lot too!




Big ER fan here and will always break out the dvds!

You're just starting The West Wing? Joy! I wish I was watching it all for the first time again. I absolutely love it. I sit with friends having West Wing marathons.. yes, I'm that guy! Whereabouts in the show are you?

[KarmaContestant]

I don't watch a lot of TV - maybe 5-8 hours per week at the most, less than that normally. Most of the TV I watch is right before bed - History, Investigation Discovery and National Geographic are the channels I usually watch. I love crime documentaries and anything about science, history and space.

However - I do watch some less-than-educational programming from time to time, and I have to admit that when I do, I enjoy some of the worst TV out there.

Jersey Shore
Dance Moms (this is seriously entertaining)
Hell's Kitchen

Every now and then I catch an episode of New Girl (with Zooey Deschanel).

I watched some of American Horror Story...but lost interest about half-way through. I just can't commit to an entire season of anything.

TV involves too much lethargy for me to put much time into it. I use it to put myself to sleep or to waste time. There's almost always something I'd rather do - cooking, cleaning, gaming, walking, gardening, laundry, intense political discussions or philosophical debates about love, spirituality and the meaning of life with friends, social media like The Ledge. I like to always have something next on my list.

[markolas]

The Golden Girls will probably always be my favorite show of all time.

Modern Family and The Big Bang Theory are two of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Seinfeld is even more insufferable now than when it was on the air.

[bucklind17]

I am a few episodes into season 2 now. I only had the season 1 DVDs at first and with that finale, I actually downloaded the first season 2 ep to see what ended up happening! But I have the rest of the season's available to me now (yay for that big huge box set!) and I am soo hooked! I don't know what took me so long to get to watching it, but I would like to thank Rob Lowe and his autobiography for the final push that got me there.

That cliffhanger!! Aaaaghh! Oh there's so many great moments in season 2 but be warned... there's one moment that will just floor you.

It's crazy but I actually remember certain plot points from when they happened. I had friends who watched the show plus certain things were just SO big that I recall them being mentioned a lot, so there are some things I KNOW are coming and just don't know when! Especially one huge one that I know is a long way off but I know is going to shatter me when it comes.

[Nico]

Love a lot of shows, but utterly addicted to this one right now:

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/e3LljE_ClR8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

COMMUNITY, anyone?
I've been in love with this show for 2 years now, and i'm currently rewatching all the episodes. It's funny, smart, NEVER boring, and there are plenty of classic movie/tv show references.
I HIGHLY recommend it. It's one of the few american shows that i think is up there, in terms of humour, with the british comedies.

I also like How i met your mother (though it's becoming reaaally boring), and my favorite show of all-time must be The X-files (thanks to the ledge, because it's everyone's favorite here, and that's how i started to watch it).

[ButterCookie]

In addition to my list: Star Trek

Addicted too! And i'm never addicted anymore, so this exception says a lot! It's brilliant. And i can't wait, though i'm kind of worried because Dan Harmon was fired...i'm afraid it will get more conventional from now on.

I'm a bit worried too. Especially now that Chevy Chase has left the show as well. I guess we have to wait and see what happens.

:O ! i didn't even know! how did i not know that?? Pierce was my favorite character.
But i just saw on google the bad things he said about Community, and i'm a bit disappointed in him...i guess it's for the best, if he didn't enjoy the show anymore.
We still have Danny Pudi and Alison Brie.

[tilthefirefades]

True Blood will probably always be my favorite show. But other than that I enjoy:

Intervention
Once Upon a Time
Revenge
American Horror Story

And I guess that's it, tv bores me for the most part :shrug:

Dear Food Network, please stop showing Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. I need to do some housecleaning!
Does anyone else just LOVE this show? I can't stop watching it!

[Dodfather]

I do like it but it seems to be on ALL the time and I like something different too. I like anything with Barefoot Contessa (Ina rules!) as well and also anything with Baking. Have Cake, Will Travel is hilarious!! Also, Anna Olson (Bake with...) is hot. Just sayin'. :thumbsup:

[Macfanforever]

I can't watch the food network no more because I dumped the expanded cable.

[HomerMcvie]

Barefoot Contessa needs some backing music tracks or something...ever notice how QUIET the show is. I tend to fall asleep on it!

[Macfanforever]

Not to skew off topic but the Dick Clarks Rock n Eve is coming up next week.I've been watching it since the 1970's .Fleetwood Mac made it on show.I cant recall what year that was and also find a clip on Youtube .I got it on VHS somewhere.I wish Stevie got on the show back in the 1980's.

I will miss Dick Clark on the show .Ryan Seacrest will take it over and run it for the next 40 years.

Fergie does a great job on co-hosting the show.I do like her by herself without the peas.

[whitewingdove]

I like a lot of the old shows from late 70's to early 90's

Good to see so many Community fans on here! That show is something special. Still haven't seen most of the new season, though. And we still haven't heard if it's coming back next year, which is worrying. :(

People on here have great taste! I'll try and keep my list on the leaner side as I could be here all day.

I can take or leave Dr. Who this season.

Oh, Community is great, Becca! Check it out for sure. But it's not for everyone. Every episode always gives me the feeling that it was all written just for me... Which is probably why its ratings have always been terrible. ;) People seem to either really love it, or not get into it at all.

I haven't yet watched any of this season (well, "season 7 part 2") of Who. But it does seem to be getting a mixed reception. :( Hmmm. I'm pretty confident I'll enjoy at least some of it, though. It's always kind of been a patchy affair, for me, but I enjoy taking the good with the bad.

[jkmaletic]

Current shows I watch:

Game of Thrones
Bates Motel
MAD Men
Weeds
General Hospital
Toy Hunter
Deadliest Catch

I just found out that Jean Stapleton from "All in the Family" passed away a couple days ago .

All in the Family was a another great TV show from the 1970's that I like watching.

I hadn't heard that. That is sad.

I'm more of a fan of Norman Lear's spin-offs from AITF, Maude and Good Times. But he is such a tremendous writer and Jean Stapleton just owned the role of Edith. She was a legend and will be missed, but certainly had quite a life.

Yes I agree.No substitute for Edith Bunker.

The spinoffs were great quality TV.I think todays show are boring except a few.

Peter Marshall's shows were great too.

PETER Marshall? Or, do you mean GARRY MARSHALL? :shrug:

[KarmaContestant]

I have a new favorite show - Christopher Guest's 'Family' on HBO.

http://www.npr.org/blogs/monkeysee/2013/05/11/182868918/christopher-guest-comes-to-hbo-with-a-family-comedy-thats-serious

That said, I'll probably only watch 4 or 5 episodes before I lose interest. TV just doesn't hold my attention for very long.

[Macfanforever]

PETER Marshall? Or, do you mean GARRY MARSHALL? :shrug:

LOL.My bad. Peter was the host of The Hollywood Squares.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Marshall_%28entertainer%29


Garry Marshall I met to say.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Marshall

[TrueFaith77]

Probably my three favorite shows of all time:

1) Peyton Place
2) Mary Tyler Moore Show
3) Golden Girls

Spaced
Noah's Arc
Skins
Borgia (NOT to be confused with The Borgias on showtime)

RIP to Jean Stapleton who pass away on May 31 at the age of 90.

She was a great actress of Stage,TV and Film.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Stapleton

[becca]

I wish I could get HBO, but they say you can't have everything. :(

I saw a couple Toy Hunters, but it mostly makes me feel bad about how I don't have many of my old toys anymore, and certainly not mint in their original boxes!

I remember seeing Carroll O'Connor on an old Wild Wild West episode and he was a very smart villain type, and nothing like Archie Bunker. My respect for his acting went through the roof where it already was for Jean Stapleton.

Lately I've been watching some old British shows on DVD...

I just got The Owl Service and Ace Of Wands, a couple of '70s fantasy type shows aimed at teenage and up. Very high quality. I'm going to savor them an episode at a time. Now if they'd only release the original Phoenix & the Carpet series (not the movie version).

'Dave Allen At Large' is another one. I loved how this Irish comedian always closed with 'good night, and may your God go with you'. He was also very good looking I thought as well as funny.

Oh, and have been playing a few Peter Cook comedy vinyl records of old tv performances. His Mr. Wisty stuff is a real tonic for me! Probably due to a secret desire to dominate the world in the name of spindly and spotty invisible people who study tadpoles in gossamer trench coats. That will make no sense to the uninitiated. :p

[Macfanforever]

I love watching As Time Goes By and Keeping up Appearances on PBS Saturday nights.I probably seen them all by now and also I got the entire series of both shows on my external backup drive.

Quality TV.Not this junk they dish out on todays TV.

I still say Stevie made that sitcom funny.But the rest of the series sucked.

She said she cant act.

YES YOU CAN Stevie.

I wish Christina had better writers.The series was not that funny to me.

[Macfanforever]

Will alittle off topic but its about TV . I see you NYC ledgies are getting screwed with the CBS vs Time Warner problem there.


The people who pay for Showtime are getting ripped off over this.

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/envelope/cotown/la-et-ct-cbs-local-ratings-20130809,0,1250850.story


So much for CSI, PGA golf ,Price is Right and other CBS faves.

[TrueFaith77]

Pretty Little Liars is rocking my world presently.

[becca]

I am really enjoying Under The Dome so far, and was enjoying that show with people putting on a talent show in different small towns each week, Showville, but they moved it or something, maybe it just ended? Best thing since the old 1970s Gong Show!

Now I am mad about a British series called Broadchurch we are finally getting to see here which has David Tennent (sp?) and that woman who was in Birds Of A Feather and then Emmerdale. Really great drama!

[HomerMcvie]

Five favorite shows of all time...

Seinfeld
The Golden Girls
Andy Griffith Show
The Dick Van Dyke Show
Everybody Loves Raymond(I catch hell, all the time, when I tell people that I love this show, but F em, I do)

[applebucked]

I've wanted to watch Seinfeld (even more so because I found out Chris is a huge fan :lol:) and Golden Girls for the longest time. As for my fave shows, god that's a long list.

The ones that really stuck to this day are basically the following (in no particular order):

E.R.
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
The Nanny
Arrested Development

plus many others I've watched and failed to pick up on.

[Macfanforever]

For those of you that are fans of American Idol.

They announced the new judge lineup .

J.Lo got her job back plus Harry Connick JR will give the judge job a try and Kieth Urban will be back along with Randy J.

Jimmy will be still there to help along.

Maybe Stevie will come back on the show.

I'm glad they got rid of a$$wipe Nicki Minaj .Stevie probably was happy to hear the news of the changes.I do like Mariah Carey.

I still dont understand how Nicki got the judge job in the first place,

I like all of the artists now in the judge lineup.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/harry-connick-jr-and-jennifer-lopez-to-join-keith-urban-on-american-idol-panel/2013/09/03/80b72ab6-14bb-11e3-880b-7503237cc69d_story.html

I will tune in more.

[Silver Springs]

I recently started watching Orange Is The New Black after a recommendation from a colleague. So far, so good. I just can't quite get used to Kate Mulgrew's new look :/

[GarboSpeaks!]

Netflix is a godsend to those of us that don't really care about a show, but might give it a shot if it's on Netflix. As a result of NF, I have binge watched:
Weeds
Breaking Bad
Battlestar Galactica
Sons Of Anarchy
Fringe (re-watched and all caught up)
Orange Is The New Black
House Of Cards
(some other lame-o horror'ish made for Netflix series. Kinda Twilight'y. God awful!)

That's all I can think of right now. I've a mind to start Mad Men next which I have heard a lot about. Now the deal is...HOLY HELL there is a LOT of well made TV shows out there lately! I mean w/ the exception of Weeds & BSG...<lots of kitsch...still good but fluffy> these shows are meaty, engaging and all around amazing. Most if not all aren't my cup of tea, but I'm amazed at how much I liked them and truly binge watched them all. Also if I do get into a show, I HATE waiting for the next episode.
Prior shows that I thought were engaging and well made:
24 (what I thought would be annoying as hell was instead my racing heartbeat. DAMN)
X-Files (so amazing while it lasted. Someone said it never should have been cancelled-I think it just could have spun off, but as Mulder & Scully dropped off, it had to go-sad as I was about it)
Twin Peaks (break-thru in TV off beat...biased Lynch fan)
hmm, many others but so much is good and fun, so few enduring imo. Nip/Tuck for example-awesome, now, meh.
Oh, and for those who have passed on Breaking Bad-I SO WASN'T INTERESTED, but now that I've seen it...run, RUN to the TV to view!!! lol

[Macfanforever]

I loved Twin Peaks.I VHS recorded it when it first aired plus I happen to find the show on TVFreeload last year.

[nicole21290]

Some of these are old, some are new, some I stopped watching because I thought they became more than a little crap, some I will re-watch over and over. Also VERY fond of documentaries (particular on history). I've also probably forgotten some of my favourites which should be on this list but heigh ho. And yes, I have no actual life... :D

I just watched more of the Honeymooners this week end and as I was watching them I was thinking of a Fleetwood Mac version of the Honeymooners.

Stevie could play Alice .Christine could play Trixie.

The Boys are giving me problem in who should play Ralph and Norton.

I agree .The same goes for Youtube,tvfreeload and other video sites.
The freaking pounds are adding up on yours truly and its to freaking freezing to do a long walks outside .And I feel like crap for the last 3 weeks.

I HATE the winter months.

Yes I agree on catching a show late in its run.

Its like starting a book in the middle on something like chapter 6 of a 12 chapter book.

Thats what I've been doing with AHS Coven,I will get the whole season on my computer and have a personal mini marathon on the weekend.

[KarmaContestant]

Anyone watching HBOs True Detective?

[Dex]

I hear you. I feel like one would have to start from the beginning. I watched all the way up to this fourth season over the last week or so. Hulu is unhealthy for people like me lol

Community is awesome, and totally suited to binge-watching. Glad you've enjoyed it. :) I agree it's a very difficult show to just sort of "pick up and watch" without getting to know the characters over a period. Which I think is one of the main reasons the show has struggled to garner ratings.

Shoot, though. That Dungeons and Dragons episode. One of my favourite things ever.

[chiliD]

My TV watching has been cut back significantly (mainly because of the channels I USED to watch a LOT..."H2", "NatGeo", "NatGeoWild", etc, I don't have access to anymore)...so, it's pretty much down to:

Criminal Minds (now that it is in syndication, I think I've seen every episode about 3 or 4 times...I really enjoy when I can watch a NEW episode in the current season)

NCIS (catching up on the "Kate" era (Sasha Alexander)...I didn't start watching until Zeva was already well entrenched)

NCIS: LA

Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives (the more I watch, the less "special" the places are becoming...seems like everybody cooks the pork & beef exactly the same...it's just what they do with it AFTER it's prepared. STILL, though, I want to patronize every place that's been featured. Especially, the gourmet trucks!)

Yes, that's a great episode. I think my favorite is the dice-throw, alternate realities episode. I nearly fell out of bed laughing.

In addition to the shifting tones/styles of each episode, I think also it's hard to realize there is a tenderness to the show--plus I'm a sucker for unrequited love and the Annie/Jeffrey chemistry is sizzling. That non-couple has the best t*ts on tv.

[chiliD]

OH...just recently got hooked on Doc Martin (the British comedy that gets shown on PBS here in the States). What a hilarious show...and just gorgeous scenery.

[HomerMcvie]

I love Triple D! And I've been to probably 8-10 of the featured places. Some are better than others(regardless of Guy's review).

[mottabam]

I find myself watching less and less TV these days. The shows just don't capture my attention. The last series I was really into was X-Files and that has been gone awhile. I did watch Seinfeld and 24 consistently when those were running.

Today I prefer more reality programming. Here are a few I like:

Pawn Stars
American Restorations
Fast & Loud
Pickers
X-Factor
Finding Bigfoot
America's Secrets Exposed??(not sure that is the name)
Counting Cars

I did watch the AHS Coven since Stevie got involved. Found it very interesting.

[Macfanforever]

I have a question?.

What is and was Stevie's favorite TV show.I know she enjoys the shows that she appeared in.

I remember reading that she liked Miami Vice.

I like to know what she like when she was a kid or teen.

[TrueFaith77]

I just started watching Bates Motel. H.S. that show is gnarly.

[TrueFaith77]

Season 2. March 3. Vera Farmiga slurps the scenery in this show... her bid to be the next Meryl Streep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0jBeCbMt_g

She really would make a delicious Christine McVie.
