What do you Watch?
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'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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
