Favorite "CAN'T MISS" shows?

I have a few that I love to watch, but the 2 shows i simply cannot miss are;
Deadwood on HBO
Battlestar Gallactica on SciFi
Don't know what it says about me that those shows are at this point, my all time favs......maybe my reality is out of whack with the space time thingi.......but these are two shows I won't miss

what are your favorite shows?

Dunno... TV shows are just kinda blah right now and it's hard to commit to one show every week. I prefer to wait and rent the good ones by season on DVD.. just saw Curb Your Enthusiasm and loved it.

Yeah - anything on HBO on Sunday is watched here - Carnivale, Deadwood, 6 Feet Under, Soprano's, Curb Your Enthusiam, Entourage - everything (except things with that Soderbergh's name on it)

We also watch Survivor, Big Brother, The Amazing Race, ER, The Apprentice & The West Wing.

I watch Myth Busters & I'm really starting to get hooked on Modern Marvels.

I'm getting pshcyed up for The Sheild as well

Lost, West Wing (but that's starting to lose me) NYPD Blue which is over, Enterprise, which is ending and NCAA Football.

Of those (not counting football) Lost is my #1

I did just set the DVR for deadwood so maybe I'll be adding shows instead of taking them away.

West Wing, all the Law & Orders, Alias, CSI & CSI Miami ( CSI NY hasn't impressed me much so far, and I like Gary Sinise's work in general), The Apprentice, Battlestar Galactica, Stargate Atlantis

All good stuff.

I like Survivor, Apprentice, Amazing Race and other game shows like those.
I've been watching that Super Nanny show also. Kinda fun.

Dont much care for cops, lawyers, doctors, medical examiners type shows.. I might like the drama in them, but dont care for the violent backdrop I guess. Not sure.. They just dont appeal to me.

I like interview shows a lot. I'll often never see a movie, but I'll remember the star(s) being on Letterman or Conan or something, lol.

West Wing use to be (first couple of seasons) but they lost the "spark" that made it important, and have spent more time on shocking revelations and character development that takes away from the whole situation.

Law and Order is a good trusty show, however a recent spate of character replacements has shifted the balance very rapidly, and made it somewhat less entertaining this season. I am enjoying SVU and CI more now, especially with the news of Chris Noth bringing the Mike Logan character over to CI.

CSI (the original) is a total don't miss. I have the first few seasons on DVD, and I tend to watch the repeats anyway. Very smart writing, amazing production qualities, and a sharpness of image you don't see in many shows. I love logic games, and this show really gets me thinking. The other CSIs to a lesser degree (I don't like David Caruso much, I think he is like watching a puppet rather than an actor), and the NY one just hasn't caught me yet.

Cops. I feel much better about my own life when I see how stupid so many other people are. This is an offshoot of working freelance news for a couple of years.

Honorable mentions to Coronation Street (been on forever), Trailer Park Boys (hate it / love it), and past good HBO shows like OZ (one of the most powerful collective cast efforts I have ever seen).

We're pretty much hooked on a handful of network reality shows. Fear Factor, The Amazing Race, Survivor. Of course there's Lost and the original CSI. We took a few months intermission from the time we kicked cable out of our house to when I installed DirecTV to see if we could live without one hundred thousand channels. I find that the wife and I still primarily watch just those few network shows.

Deadwood is #1, and now that NYPD is off that really only leaves, Lost as must see. Others that I like are, Dead Like Me, on showtime, and I have to admit.... a female friend got me semi hooked on, The OC *shamed* I usually watch, Johnny Zero.... I grew up with starsky and hutch and baretta and shows like that so I have a fondness for stupid detective shows. Oh... and the only comedy I like is, Scrubs.... really stupid show... but they make me go HAH!! at least 3 times every show.

At the moment, I'm hooked on 24 on Monday nights. I also like the Law and Orders and Third Watch. The West Wing first couple of seasons but then it got a bit odd.

But of course life will not be the same without NYPD blue, much as it wasn't when Hill Street Blues and St. Elsewhere finished

Can't miss?

Even though its been long gone, I still love Seinfeld. And lately Friends. I'm starting to get into Joey, but its gonna take a while.

One of my all time favorites though is Magnum P.I. Actually, it was my favorite show. I remember seeing a lot of up and comers back in the day, stars today that were just starting out like a fresh faced Sharon Stone, for instance.

I really can't get into too much of what's on right now. I guess I really don't like what TV has to offer. I prefer to read or study or go for a run instead.

If I do have a few hours to kill, I guess I'll watch a good NBA game here and there but other than that, its back to the drawing board for this newbie.

Overhaulin', Rides, Myth Busters, Modern Marvels, American Chopper, Biker Buildoff the series.

Waiting for the day when DirecTV will let me just have Discovery, History, and TLC. That's all I ever watch for some strange reason. |biker

It's easy to forget, especially since it's so hard to find sometimes, since they're always moving it around and taking it off for weeks at a time.
