Anyone wish to volunteer the fact that they've wasted time on at least ONE TV series so far this season and what their fav(s) are?
Poster Comment: I'll go first. The only shows I've been sucked into, and therefore have committed moral debouchery, have been "Jericho," "Shark," and all 3 "CSI's." I apologize publicly for my moral weakness in occasionally succumbing to this siren of cheap and short-lived highs and one night stands, marketed and produced by you-know-whats.
"Cold Case," "Without A Trace," and "Numbers," ain't half bad either.

From the way-back machine, I enjoyed: Mash MTM Bob Newhart The original Carol Burnett show Twilight Zone Gunsmoke Pallidin Rawhide and all the other great shows from the golden years of television. Sorry that I hve nothing to add here, except for one - CashCab - a great game show set in a NYC taxi. Do check it out.
As far as what hasn't been canceled yet: House and Boston Legal (I hate lawyers, but Shatner's hamming it up makes up for that). As far as stuff that is no longer in production: X-Files. Mmmmmm....Scully.... "First I'm gonna bother everybody I meet, and then I'll probably go home and get drunk."
i haven't watched tv in years, but i admit when we had HBO, i did like The Sopranos. from years back, NYPD Blue, particularly the first couple years. once they killed off Jimmy Smits' character, i quit watching.

I don't watch TV either, but I did as a kid, and was heartbroken and sniffing every week over "The Littlest Hobo," about a lost dog trying to find his way home.

BNN Cashcab?
After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn't do it. I sure as hell wouldn't want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military. - William S. Burroughs

There is only one show I watch on TV now, Survivor. I know this season is loaded with actors, and I hate that, but hopefully next season they will go back to regular Americans again. I would love to be on that show, it looks like a lot of fun.
God is always good!

I haven't even heard of any of these shows. I recognised the shows on Lodwick's list, although MASH is the only one I spend six or more hours per day watching.

I have to admit liking all of those. Plus Desperate Housewives. But my TOTAL fave is American Dad. That has to be the sickest show ever on broadcast television. So far, the teenage daughter has been forced to turn tricks after the bonehead loses their house...every show, something horrible happens to her. I feel bad laughing at some of the jokes, but laugh I do.
"Jericho," "Shark," and all 3 "CSI's." "Cold Case," "Without A Trace," and "Numbers," ain't half bad either.
