    The only shows that I go out of my way to watch are:
    How I Met Your Mother
    Stargate Atlantis
    The Office
    The Amazing Race

    I'm also really enjoying Z Rock, but the acting needs some work. I really want to like Life on Mars, but I'm just not feeling it yet.

    The Office- Instant Classic.

    South Park- It's dropped a bit quality wise, but it still amuses me enough to keep watching.

    Jon Stewart - actually one of the better political shows out there, and really funny.

    Bones -this is a fav of my girlfriend, I like it alright

    Supernatural -another girlfriend fav, also good.

    Pushing daises - this is one of the more interesting shows around. really quirky and fun.

    Currently in production / will return sooner or later / not cancelled: Only Heroes, Pushing Daisies and Lost. I'm undecided about Fringe and Sarah Connor Chronicles, both of which have been dropped by the channel that screens them here (to the surprise of absolutely no one :rolleyes:). There's nothing else out there that's of any interest whatsoever to me.

    I have a DVR so I never watch anything when it airs-except Life On Mars, which is fabulous, IMO.

    Heroes-I'm there.
    Fringe-stupid but amusing.
    Sarah Connor-I WANT to love it but am afraid it will go the way of the dodo-I already got burned on Journeyman and Jericho and I don't want it to happen again.
    Bones-gotta have my Bones!
    Charlie Jade-has Firefly syndrome-good show, short life
    Primeval-if you have BBC America, this one is worth checking out. I let it build up a few episodes then marathon it-its more fun that way
    Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives-like a car crash, it horrifies and yet you can't look away.
    Cold Case-If you have to watch a police procedural, at least this one has an elf on it!

    Did I mention Life On Mars?:)

    Stargate Atlantis-dumb plots but good character interaction. And every once in a while you get an episode like Last Man....

    As far as comedies-well, when I want to laugh I watch Sanctuary. What's that? It's supposed to be a drama?;) My bad.

    And when the brain requires rest-House.

    I forgot 2. Life, because its quirky, and Eli Stone, because its quirkier.

    I also watch Heroes, but it's become purely (extremely) guilty pleasure. I'd quit watching if Adrian Pasdar ever left.

    Easy for me to do this night-by-night:

    Sunday - Family Guy - the last several seasons have disappointed me, but
    I still tune in for the once-an-episode LMAO moment

    Monday - Prison Break - pure adrenaline rush each week
    - TSCC - back-to-back with Prison Break...
    Tuesday - Fringe - I love the Walter-Peter relationship
    - L&O:SVU - hooked on Benson/Stabler
    Wednesday - Pushing Daisies - very fresh, different from anything I've ever seen on TV
    Thurs - CSI - love the team - hope the show won't be too different once Fishburne starts, Grissom gone
    Fri - Life - Charlie Crews is one of my favourite TV characters of all time
    - Numb3rs - I love the explanations Charlie always gives, good action, plus wrap it up with warm family moments...

    Don't know which night - Dexter - friend provides me with taped copies - one of my favourite shows in the last 5 years
    - Lost - catching up with the first 3 seasons on Space Network - will pick up new episodes when they air
    - Poker after Dark - I'm a poker junky...
    - BSG - all I can say is WOW

    You're not alone my friend. I try to catch it whenever I can in order to up my game, since I do play in real life...
