Shows I watch currently.

- Breaking Bad (damn good show and can't wait for it to start back up)
- The Walking Dead (has a ton of potential but its gone downhill since the first episode imo)
- Dexter (haven't really liked much of this season)
- Stargate Universe (huge waste of time, but I tune in anyway)
- Boardwalk Empire (slow moving plot with good acting)

That sums up my weekly watching. Anything else worth checking out?

Only reason I ask is because this is where I found out about Battlestar Galactica, Generation Kill, Rome, and a few other really good shows. I have a some vacation time coming up next month and its freezing cold outside.
Breaking Bad
The Walking Dead
Sons of Anarchy
Dexter
The League
South Park
Justified
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Archer
Louie
Pawn Stars (if I happen to catch it on)

Use to watch Burn Notice but kind of lost interest a few seasons in. Same with a couple other shows I'm forgetting atm.

Hmm.. I tried watching Sons of Anarchy and it didn't work out for me. Not my type of show I guess. South Park has its moments so watching a few episodes each season can still be fun.
Ok I watch a lot of damn shows and my list could put anyone here to shame.

I'm just gonna post the ones you seriously should watch.

Besides the ones you named

Breaking Bad, Dexter, Boardwalk Empire, and Walking Dead.

Check out these:

1. True Blood
2. Fringe
3. Supernatural
4. The Event
5. Southland
6. Justified
7. V


For Comedies I recommend Eastbound and Down, Family Guy, South Park, and The League

Breaking Bad
White Collar
Burn Notice
Lie To Me
Eureka
Warehouse 13
Top Gear
Human Target
Leverage

I would be watching Stargate Universe but as [Cross] pointed out it's gone down the crapper and I just can't stand to watch an awesome franchise die.

The Walking Dead
Southpark
30 Rock
The Office
(sometimes Community and/or Outsourced, depending on how much of Thursday nights lineup I catch on NBC).


Not much for reg TV, usually movies / sports or some gaming on the PC.
The Walking Dead and Dexter is pretty much it for me.
Dexter.

I don't really watch any tv. Waiting for the Spartacus prequel to start in January as well.
Watching stuff on my phone and tv.
I don't have cable, so I'm limited to what I can stream. All the stuff I routinely watch is on Fox:

- American Dad
- Family Guy
- Hell's Kitchen
- House
- Kitchen Nightmares (when it was on, seems to be on hiatus)
- Lie to Me

Other than that, I only watch movies. I just bought The Fantistic Mr. Fox on Blu-ray, and will fire that up in the home theater. I love that movie!

Eastbound and Down FTW!!!
Money Talks

Great show.
Justified
Walking Dead
Stargate Universe
House
Pawn Stars
Burn Notice
Human Target (probably my favorite now)
Mantracker
American Chopper (stopped watching long ago then Junior vs. Senior started and it was great)
The Glades (off right now, but a great show!)

Sorry but the main mantracker is a douche.
I watch It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and South Park from time to time. I might watch about 2 hours of tv per month.

True Blood is probably a half decent show, and I'm sure the acting is good because its on HBO, but that Twilight series made me hate everything about vampires.

I tried watching the pilots of V, The Event, and Justified, and lost interest fairly quickly.
I'll probably check out Southland, Money Talks, or Fringe although I've never even heard of them.

Oh, and LOL @ the Mantracker on MadJester's list. I used to watch that show along with Survivorman. I applied with some friends to go on that show about two years ago.

Hell's Kitchen
Canada's Worst Driver
Smallville
Supernatural

Blue Bloods
Sanctuary
Dog Whisperer
Parking Wars
Pawn Stars

Operation Repo (not much anymore)

-Dexter (best show on TV imo, though the 1st 2-3 episodes were slow this season.)
-Burn Notice (just found the show a month ago. Told about it, dled it, got sick and watched season 1 in 1 day. In Season 4 currently. Nice Macgyveresque show.)
-Sons of Anarchy (love the story and plot, but the acting isn't very good).
-True blood (season ended but is a great show and one of the most creative)
-Californication (starts in January)
-Weeds (This season was better. Last season was mostly boring.)
-The Big C (Was on after weeds, was season 1, very good).
Walking Dead (I'm a little bored with it, but the gf loves it)
-House
-Fringe
-Two and half men (haven't had time to watch this season yet)
-The Big Bang Theory (haven't had time to watch this season yet)
-Spartacus (on starz. 1st season was awesome acting and story, just 2nd rate graphics. Only issue is 2nd season is a prequel without the star due to cancer.)
-Entourage (was a fabulous show, but the last 2 seasons got boring, repetitive and less funny. There's only have half a season left.)

It was the perfect ending for the season though, which also cleanly ties up stuff from the past. The moment you figure it out and go "oooohhhhhh" is great.

----SPOILER----















ahah I was calling it about half way through the episode or earlier that at some point he either already did or would tell the club about what was going on. Especially since once she fulfilled her deal for Gemma. Looks like next season will be a 14 month time skip and will bring back a lot more of John Tellers diary type stuff.

Twilight is a stupid chick flick.

True Blood has it's boring moments but overall it's a great show.

You should of atleast stuck with The Event, and V because those tend to get good later on.

Southland is like a hardcore cop drama with good characters, and good plots.

Fringe is like a supernatural, scientific show with paranormal events happening.

I get to watch Burn Notice live for the first time tonight, w00t!

You never heard of a dvr? Hour long show turns into 40 minutes & a 30 minute show becomes 20 minutes.
I don't watch anything live really except for sports.
So my shows right now for the entire week take 1 hour & 40 minutes.

Most of the time I'm watching everything off of DVR, even sports. Record the Bears game, so I can finish my work outside or wherever at anytime. About the only thing I watch live is Sunday nights and Dexter. and I've downloaded a good portion of my shows, like Burn Notice. I got sick a month ago and watched season 1 in 1 day on the couch. I watched probably 3 seasons worth of shows when I got the flu.

Most of the rest is my downtime before bed. Watch an episode and pet\brush the pets, then go to bed.

I gave up on Rescue me halfway through last season. It used to be my favorite tv show, but it has been terrible for a couple years now.

Yeah, its just that I love Dennis Leary and yeah the plots thinned out almost completely but I am curious on which notes it will end on since its supposed to coincide with the 10 year anniversary of Sept 11.
