My favorite shows are Stargate SG-1 and Law and Order: SVU, followed closely by Stargate Atlantis and the Original Law and Order. I'm also gaining an increasing appreciation for Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spinoff, Angel. What the hell is wrong with me?

Apparently a lot is wrong with you.

I like, Inuyasha, Family Guy, Futurama, and SNL.

Oh, forgot Family Guy, South Park, and the Daily Show. I'm an idiot.

South Park is good

What about MASH, Senifeld, the A-Team, Star Trek:TNG, and the West Wing? Those are all great shows as well.

I don't watch a whole lot of TV - it takes away from my internet time - but now and then a show will grab me.

Most recently, that has been "House".

Surprisingly a very entertaining, intelligent, and funny show. Not bad for Fox.

I can do both at the same time. I have a laptop, and a TV 6 inches from my desk. Yay college!

Family Guy, Daily Show, and almost anything Adult Swim.

House/Scrubs/Desperate Housewives/Boston Legal

All shows I think are fairly decent.

I'm also a big Adult Swim fan, well, except for the anime, not a big anime fan.

Adult swim only is anime.

Desperate Housewives? That's sad man

Adult Swim isn't just anime. It's also got a slew of other cartoons, like Family Guy, Futurama, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab 2021, etc. etc.

Wait, how is Desperate Housewives sad? Its the only "female" oriented show now that "Sex in the City" is gone *sniff* and it provides at least some entertainment for me away from my textbooks.

And I suppose I think of "anime" as including Japanese anime, which comes on after SeaLab 2021, ATHF, Family Guy, etc etc...

I should clarify...I don't like Japanese animation

I watch SBS here. It's a non-commercial station that gets awesome current affairs (and other) documentaries from all over the world.

Also, I forgot The Flying Circus, Red Dwarf and the X-Files. Of course none of them are running anymore, so that's my excuse! I also liked the Lone Gunmen. :p

Fine, fine. Isn't there "Friends"? wait...They're gone too.

That makes more sense.

I used to watch the X-Files :)! I was a total X-Files nerd! I still am I suppose, heh.

And I love watching live surgeries, and medical lectures on television, so I think your documentaries are FAR from dorky, haha.

Bah, not true. They've got the really interesting running series, "Wild West Tech", where they talk about the technology of the old West, they consistently run programs about the Celts at night, and just today I watched an amazingly interesting program about the evolution of mercenary organizations.

Eh, I think it's lost a lot with the departure of Sharona. The new girl's chemistry with Monk is such that I no longer find him quirky and amusing, but annoying. Sharona always had a way of making Monk's compulsions funny.

There used to be this show called Medical Rookies here, it followed interns around, as well as registrars etc doing a procedure for the first time. I would never so brave that I'd let a camera crew follow me around.

One of the best spinoffs EVER. It was really, really good. Fuck you very much, Fox, for cancelling it.

Heh, being a resident is hard enough. I can't imagine having a camera watching my every move.....

Fox's always had interesting shows. Married with Children, The Simpsons, Family Guy, The X-Files, Futurama, Titus (until they screwed Chris Titus over, then the show became psychotic), Grounded For Life (until it went to the WB and became another "average white family" comedy), and yes, the Lone Gunmen.

I think Frazier is still good, even in reruns. I laugh at all of them, even though I've seen them all at least twice. Just like The Nanny, Golden Girls, and The Fresh Prince of Belair - gooo-oood shows!

It's up there with Seinfeld and Cheers.
