Take out Browns games and any Browns related shows,,, I'd have to say that lately, my favorite shows are Life and the CSI. (the one in Vegas)


Favorites from years gone by are The West Wing and Law and Order, Law and Order CI......

I like crime shows,,, and some politics.. West Wing was kinda cool because it was serious and at the same time funny and demonstrated quick wit!

"The Office" is the only network show I bother watching anymore...the rest is mostly garbage (not to offend everyone's favorites).

the past few years have been some of the best for network tv...

Lost is sooooo well done... so many twists and turns, and unbelievable character development... it is easily one of the best shows i have ever seen...

have you checked out any of these shows, like 24 or heroes? if you haven't, you're really missing out..

I've given "24" several tries...meh.

I've actually never watched "Lost".

As far as network TV is concerned "The Office" and "Arrested Development" are the only things that've done anything for me in recent years (and one got the axe).

The previews for sitcoms I see during Browns games are horrendous...they look like stuff I could've come up with in high school. CBS is a joke that's trying to 'hip' up it's programming..."King of Queens" is nothing new...that's a review that could've taken place in 1998...although it is certainly a great average sitcom...love having Jerry Stiller still around.

ABC is running...what? The Geico cavemen show? A couple shows with over-the-hill stand-ups playing average, befuddled fathers with hot wives? Yeah, let me tune in and see what happens when he forgets her birthday.

NBC seems to be running away with it content-wise...I don't watch much "Scrubs" but I've tuned in before, and it's very bright and can shine at times...I've never been impressed with "My Name is Earl" (although I've always liked Jason Lee)..."30 Rock" is a good show (don't watch much of it)...but even they run a lot of wall-to-wall crap.

FOX...love them, but "The Simpsons" has run it's course...it's still better than a lot, but it's stale...also stale is "Family Guy" and it's poor man's equivalent "American Dad"...I actually liked "House" for awhile, but almost because it was so bad it was good..."American Idol"? If I want to make fun of people's bad singing, I'll go to a karaoke bar...if I want to hear good singing I'll listen to Aretha Franklin..."Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?"...only in America.

I'm not into sitcom shows really. I do like Top Chef though and the wife has me watching Project Runway (and no I'm not gay, I can watch the models and act like I care about the show )

I don't watch TV shows really, so I can't even name 1 show, let alone 2. I either watch sports related stuff or movies, that's really it. Well I guess I occasionally watch Most Haunted on the Travel Channel.

Heroes and The Office.

I loved Arrested Developement but for some reason people didn't watch it. The critics loved it. It had GREAT, cutting edge, smart, writing. Along with characters that were definatly different than anything else on TV. Meanwhile Everyone Loves Raymond and King of Queens were smash hits? Go figure? Do people really watch According to Jim?

My favorite "older" show, Northern Exposure. Again GREAT writing and character developement.

I used to love The Simpsons and Family Guy with all my heart...but now they're stale.

Seinfeld gets funnier and funnier to me the more I watch it. South Park is pure brilliance too.

Props to the Daily Show and Colbert Report as well. Close 3rds and 4ths.

I seem to be watching ONE show this season...ER. I thought it was getting better again, but I'm not so sure anymore.

My other favorite show is the "internet".

Arrested Development was fantastic... The DVDs are affordable now too, only $20 a pop.

No one watched it because it was TOO cutting edge and smart...they really forced you to keep up with them and demanded your attention like no other show...their running gags and callbacks made it difficult for the casual viewer to pick up.

It's definitely a program suited for DVD...I swear everytime you watch you pick up something you missed.
