Popular shows you have never seen

[Kirby]

The West Wing thread made me think about all of the popular shows out there that I have never seen, even a little bit. I watch TV, but there are some shows that I have never watched an entire episode of:

West Wing
Lost
Heroes
Law and Order
CSI Miami and CSI New York (I have seen one episode of the original CSI - it had to do with stand up comedians. Thats all I remember)
Desperate Housewives
NCIS

I do plan on watching Lost and Heroes on DVD at some point in the near future...

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Seinfeld

 

[Starbreaker]

The Shield

 

[Agent Richard07]

I've never seen more than a few seconds of M*A*S*H, Buffy: The Vampire Slayer or Angel.

If we're including some of the recent cable shows that are considered popular, then I've never seen the following...

Big Love
Deadwood
Dexter
The Wire

 

[Aragorn]

Like popular as in lots of people actually watch (Without a Trace, CSI, etc.) or stuff the fanboys drool unconditionally over (Buffy, Angel, etc.)?

 

[Piper]

Lost and any of the CSIs.

I highly recomend NCIS
AMAZING SHOW!

 

[bigdaddy]

I've seen one episode of CSI and NCIS, none of Housewives, Ugly Betty, and Grey's. The only popular shows I watch are House, LOST, and maybe Bones, if you consider that popular.

[Kirkman1987]

A ton of things. I don't even have television right now, and I'm usually content with a backlog of older films and television series on dvd. I check out newer tv shows every now and then. The only current show I'm really into right now is Dexter, which is amazing.

I've never seen

Boston Legal
Grey's Anatomy
Farscape
BSG
24

 

[Spot's Meow]

Friends
Lost
24

You just broke my heart with those three.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Never seen any of the normal mainstream cops & doctors & lawyers stuff...L&O, CSI, House, Without A Trace, Boston Public, Gray's Anatomy. Saw a couple eps of ER once. Never seen Desperate Housewives or The West Wing (a show, unlike the others in this list, I might check out on DVD someday).

 

[God Magnus]

Just a few off the top of my head (in no particular order):

Dr. Who
The Prisoner
House
CSI: NY
Dead Like Me
Scrubs
The Shield
The Wire
Supernatural
The Office

However, several of these are currently on my Netflix queue.

 

[Daneel]

Plenty... Off the top of my head:

Bones
House
Lost
24
The Shield
Damages
Dexter
The Wire
The Office
Ugly Betty
Desperate Housewives
Boston Legal
Grey's Anatomy
30 Rock
NCIS

And those are just current shows. There's a ton of older ones I haven't seen either. I won't bother mentioning them all, but there are a few that seem fairly popular around here, like Babylon 5 or either of the Stargate shows.

I have nothing against most of these shows --hell, I'd probably enjoy a number of them-- but I simply don't have the time to watch them all.
I probably watch too much TV as it is.

Ditto to all of the above, except I think I saw one ep of L&O, I saw one ep of Boston Legal on an airplane, and I've only seen about five minutes of ER. The only lawyer show I ever saw more than one episode of was Century City, which was hardly mainstream.

I've also never seen 24, American Idol, or Survivor. And that only covers popular shows from this decade. I just don't watch that much in the way of popular stuff.
