I like:
1 - Battlestar Galactica: best new series in television, and one of the best in the past 20 years. Best writing by far, best acting, excelent directing and the sets are astounding. 2 - Rescue Me: Denis Leary set loose on a network that allows realyl cutting edge stuff. 3 - Nip/Tuck: It's like a soap opera for people who have issues with vanity. There's something superb about the complete lack of boundries the show has that keeps me coming back. I do feel like it does cross the line into 'specticle' from time to time, though (which is why it is #3 and not #2). 4 - Democracy Now!: The only reliable news source on TV. No corpriate funding and no censorship. |

I have to agree with willtravel....Battlestar Galactica is one of the best shows on TV. I can't wait until the next season starts...too bad it's not until October. He hit it on the head though, great cast, great acting, great effects too.
I also like House. Hugh Laurie has great comedic timing. I really like his dry humor. |

Is this restricted to shows currently on the air?
1. Lost - Can't help it, I'm a sci-fi nut, and this show really exploits the genre in amazing ways. 2. My Name is Earl - Hilarious and uplifting... it's telling that America needs to turn to a couple of ex-thiefs and con-men for their moral values these days. 3. 24 - What can I say? It's just one of those shows... 4. Iron Chef - It's all about the chairman... ale cuisine!!!! w00t! 5. Daily Show - Because the world and those who look at it seriously deserve to be belittled from time to time.

1. Hockey Night In Canada - the classic never gets old (can't say the same for the talent)
2. House - best show of the new season 3. The Sopranos 4. CSI - still going strong 5. 24 - It was starting to suck up the air waves until the latest season |

1. Hockey Hockey Hockey - I was lost during the lockout
2. The Shield - for the same reason willtravel likes Rescue me, gritty drama on a network that has few limits, and I liked Michael Chikless from The Commish 3. Rescue Me - see above 4. Family Guy - One of the few shows I can watch the reruns of and still laugh my ass off 5. Mythbusters - I get to learn new things while watching stuff get blown to hell 6. Survivorman - My newest fav, seems to represent the closest thing to actually being stranded in different hazardas environments, not that I have any clue what its actually like 7. Full Metal Alchemist - after Cowboy Bebop, the best story and character development in an anime I have ever seen. |

I think I like hospital shows. Hm. 5. Bones. Yep, Bones. I like it, I just do. 6. Reruns of procedurals, that are comforting like hot cocoa.

1. The Colbert Report - the best satire on TV
2. The Daily Show - second-best 3. Law & Order - still has McCoy, still the best 4. Law & Order: SVU - comes damn close at times to beating the original 5. South Park - they've still got it Honorable mention to Family Guy, which may take #5 once I start catching new episodes again.

1. The Shield (best show on TV...recent season was unbelievable)
I don't really watch TV (except The Shield). I like Nip/Tuck, but it's nothing compared to The Shield. That show is just amazing.

South Park - Has been, and always will be hilarious.
24 - Just an awesome show, probably wouldn't be without Jack though. Lost - Can't explain it, it just drew me in. The Colbert Report - Pretty funny show. Stephen Colbert is hilarious. If you ask me, funnier than the Daily Show. WWE Raw - Yeah, I enjoy "fake" wrestling. What of it? lol.
