I've been watching a lot of television shows over the last couple of years, and either some of them are getting better, or my tolerance for grap is, I'm not sure which. You have to admit, they're coming up with some original and neat ideas at least.
These are some of my favorites. If you haven't seen them I suggest you go you hulu.com (http://www.hulu.com) and check them out at your leisure.
Life - Right now this is probably my favorite show on the air. A police detective who served twelve years of a life sentence for a triple homicide is released after DNA evidence exonerates him. He sues the city/police department after his release for an "undisclosed but at least seven figure sum", with the added stipulation that he be allowed to return to the force and resume his career as a detective (so he can also find out who in the police force framed him). His style is odd, and he's fond of making strange observations and quoting Zen platitudes from a Zen philosophy book that he read while inside that kept him from going crazy. Also, he has a strange affectation for fruit. Sounds a little disjointed but it's actually really smooth, entertaining, and very well-written.
Life on Mars - An American knockoff of a british TV series about a NYC cop in 2008 who is hit by a car, falls into a coma, and wakes up in 1973 (the year I was born!) apparently a member of a police department in NYC there. He sees strange things, hallucinations, visions, and whatnot, as well as meets his mother and himself as a boy in 1973, as well as other people from his past, and he's not sure if he's dead, in a coma dreaming all of this, or actually in 1973. Neat show, that gets a little surreal at times, and has an AWESOME soundtrack. One scene early on involving a police chase on-foot through the streets of 70's NYC while "Little Willy" by The Sweet played was just perfect.
Chuck - OK, this show is silly and unrealistic, but it's still a fun show and if you haven't given it a chance you're just a grump. An underachieving geek and employee of the "Nerd Herd" at a "Buy More" store gets an E-mail from an old friend from the college he dropped out of that contains some special high-tech images called the "Intersect" that burn an entire CIA database into his brain, and since he is now the only copy of this information, he is forced to work with a hot CIA agent and a grumpy NSA agent (played by Jayne from Firefly) as they ridiculously encounter enemy spies and operatives while trying to hide Chuck's true identity as a helpless nerd. I love the show, campy and silly as it is.
Pushing Daisies - God damnit, on looking up some info I find out Pushing Daisies has been cancelled. Goddamnit ABC you fucks, you don't know something good when you've got it.
Well now I'm pissed off and don't want to do any more. Any of you have any good shows to recommend?
-
LOST is pretty awesome.1
-
Yeah, I've gotten back into watching Lost again, thogh I've missed entire half-season when it got stupid. They seem to be shaping up now, though and I loved the big plot twist at the end of tonight's episode, though I'm sure it's a dream sequence or something.
-
American Life on Mars is no where near as good as British Life on Mars.
It's not terrible, but its a knock off. The follow up to Life On Mars is a show called Ashes to Ashes, and its not bad.
I really dont watch much in the way of TV these days. Shows I'll watch I download... The Big Bang Theory, NCIS, Grand Designs, Dr Who... and that's about it.
-
I want to watch the british version, but I'm not into downloading entire TV series anymore, thanks to hulu. I barely even download movies lately, I just wait for them to come on HBO.
-
Pushing Daisies - God damnit, on looking up some info I find out Pushing Daisies has been cancelled. Goddamnit ABC you fucks, you don't know something good when you've got it.
you can get the DVD of the first season @ Target pretty cheap right now. I recommend picking it up, since cancelled TV shows usally leave the shelves quickly.
I think this show, BTW, and picked up the DVDs recently. :)
-
I loved it. It's like if Walt Disney and David Lynch got together to make a TV show and got Tim Burton to direct it. The wikipedia article says that ABC's going to air the last three unaired episodes sometime this summer, but that it still won't bring it to a conclusion. Fuller's gonna finish that up with either a comic book or movie, apparently.
-
I gave up on cable after Deadwood and The Black Donnellys went down the tubes.
Life on Mars has been cancelled as well.
-
ideal - was on abc2 last year, no word on when its comming back.

it's always sunny in philadelphia
LOST!@@!!!!!!@@!2
home movies

home movies is awwwwwesome.
-
I just go to Hulu.Com and catch up with things there ...
-
lost? you mean that show where they decided to just sell as many seasons as possible and make it all up as they go along and are going do dissappoint you all with some super shitty ending?
i hate that show.
-
i love every minute of it.
although i'm only through the second episode of season 2 as of today, so i can't speak for the rest of the series.
-
My "Lost" theory's always been that they're on the island of R'lyeh, because of all the Lovecraft references in the first season, and the reference to Ann Arbor in this last episode reminded me even more of something from Lovecraft. I predict that by the end of this season we'll see the others dancing around a giant hole with tentacles coming out of it.
-
TV sucks and you're all a bunch of junkies.

I was about to lose faith in Dollhouse, but last week's episode saved it for me, I think. It was really good, and a bit of a mindfuck. If they can put half of that into all the other episodes, it would be a decent show.
-
I don't get it. How can you spend time watching some crap, in the hope that it will become less crap eventually?
-
supernatural.
which i'm missing because i'm posting this stupid message. bbl.

I don't get it. How can you spend time watching some crap, in the hope that it will become less crap eventually?
Having faith in the producer for the good hows he's made before, and being a fan of the actress playing the main character.

Whedon has always been a bit of a slow-starter on his shows. That's what happened to Firefly. :(

I'll also watch "Biggest Loser" and "Dancing with the Stars" if they happen to be on. :)
-
I can't watch anything on WB for some reason. I've never seen anything at all worth watching on it, except for Buffy and Gilmore Girls, and they're both long gone.
-
muahahaha! i've gotten another one to join my ranks.
but srsly, i was with you til you got to biggest loser and dancing with the stars and i realized you're a closet fag. =P

Early and late NFL on Sundays, SNF, MNF, ATH, PTI, Jeopardy, Cash Cab, Family Guy (although I'm a little over-saturated with FG right now, it's on every fucking channel), Top Gear, Kitchen Nightmares, The F Word...
And then there's a bunch of crap Amy watches that I sort of watch by proxy. Golden Girls, Frasier, and Will & Grace (Lifetime morning block! Yay!) and all that stupid fucking crap on VH1 or MTV, the whatevers of loves. Ugh. Oh and ANTM. Ugh again.
Man, reading that list again is just painful. She makes up for her terrible taste in TV shows by being as super into football as I am, though. Our TV viewing is far superior between September and February.
-
>>supernatural.
which i'm missing because i'm posting this stupid message. bbl.<<
Supernatural is one of the few I still watch. I watch Lost whenever I catch it but don't make a point of it.
I watch House occasionally but the episodes all seem the same and I liked the main character better before I heard him speak in his real voice.
I'm going to get one of those HDTV dongles for the lap top in a couple weeks. Might watch more TV then.
I've had Comcast basic cable for several years now and still have not connected that shit to my TV.
They force you to take basic TV before you can get their hs internet. I've also had one of those DTV converter boxes for several months and it's still in it's box. There is more digital content on the air than there is on basic cable.
Once I get the dongle I may never turn the regular TV on again.
-
I watch House occasionally but the episodes all seem the same and I liked the main character better before I heard him speak in his real voice.
I liiked him ever more after hearing his native accent. It showed what a good actor he is.
-
Not fans of Black Adder, I take it?
-
Seriously. Or The Young Ones (Bambi ep). Or A Bit of Fry and Laurie. Or Jeeves and Wooster. etc.
-
I actually watch America's Next Top Model. To catch glimpses of the girls in panties frolicking about the house. Last season was disgusting - there was a fucking tranny on it.
Also:
Mythbusters
Gangland (AWESOME!)
Lost
Heroes
Dollhouse (favorite)
Two and a Half Men
Fringe
Eleventh Hour
Intervention
-
I like Wallace And Gromit !
But seriously I respect his ability to alter his accent so well too. I still like him enough to watch his show.
It was just a little discordant to find he isn't american.
-
I havent see A Matter Of Loaf and Death yet...
But the Wrong Trousers is still a classic.
-
>>I havent see A Matter Of Loaf and Death yet...<<
Downloading it now, thanks for the heads up.
-
No problem.
-
I like Wallace And Gromit !
Anrgy Kid is the best out of that studio.
-
OMG A Bit of Fry and Laurie (much like SNL) couldn't be more fucking gay if it tried.
-
I havent see A Matter Of Loaf and Death yet...
But the Wrong Trousers is still a classic.
The Wrong Trousers is definitely the best of them all. A Close Shave is probably next best, then A Grand Day Out. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was amusing, but it seemed like they kinda made it a little more childish and typical-animated-movie since it was feature length. I hadn't even heard of A Matter of Loaf and Death, will have to check it out.
Also, it goes without saying that Creature Comforts ads that started all this were fucking awesome!
-
Futurama?
-
I'm so excited for the new season of Stella on Comedy Central!
-
Good for you.
I liked a Grand Day Out better than A Close Shave.
Stilton? Wendslydale?
-
I loved it. It's like if Walt Disney and David Lynch got together to make a TV show and got Tim Burton to direct it.
There is a Disney produced Lynch film that exists. It is a true story based on a not-so-distant relative of mine.
I like Wallace And Gromit !
Ever seen Last of the Summer Wine?
Finally, "Lost" fucking sucks. It's written by 8-year-olds. It's quite clear that they're making everything up as they go along and that they have no grand plan for the show. I bet they're just as surprised by their sudden success with the show as the rest of us non-idiots. Evangeline Lilly and Emilie de Ravin are the only reasons to watch that show and even then only on mute. One thing that really makes me rage is when I overhear people arguing about plot details from the show. God that is the height of dumbness.
-
The only show I like that's in season right now is Heroes.
My other favorites are mostly HBO/Showtime stuff which I download on torrents because I don't have cable let alone premium cable.
Weeds, Californication, Entourage, True Blood are the only other series I really pay attention to (I've seen every episode of all 4 of those).
I've also seen every episode of Deadwood and Rome but those have long been canceled, and both ended terribly with lots of things unfinished which was gay.
I've been watching old episodes of Six Feet Under because I never watched that and I enjoy it but it's hard to really watch them several in a row they are a bit heavy in the drama.
-
Weeds is pretty cool, Mary Louise Parker is sexy as fuck. One of these days I'm gonna have to buy the DVD sets, cuz I never seem to consistently catch it on TV.
-
I loved John from Cincinnati just for scenes like this:
John From Cincinnati: Car Dealership Scene from Finale (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8KL0_xuzCU#hq)
I wish I could find my favorite scene on youtube, but I've never been able to. The scene where John's talking to the mother through the window like a TV salesman.

At least they knew the axe was coming for Rome and managed to close some threads up. Deadwood was a giant buttfuck.
-
Firefly. Seriously.
-
Oh yeah, of course Firefly. That goes without saying.
-
At least they knew the axe was coming for Rome and managed to close some threads up. Deadwood was a giant buttfuck.
What I read was that Rome was originally scheduled for 5 seasons, but they cancelled it midway through the 2nd season because it wasn't earning the rating/acclaim for the massive cost -- of course then it received all kinds of awards, praise, and had the highest ratings ever; but by then all the actors and directors and producers had all left to take other projects. Just a massive failure on HBO's part. The middle of the 2nd season to the end of the 2nd season is like a fast forward on what the last 3 seasons would have been like (I read this from an interview with Heller the director). There are gigantic leaps of time from one episode to another and they really only briefly touch on several things to try and close the series out in basically 1/2 season instead of 3.
-
I've been told the new season of Dr Who starts soon.
-
I've been told the new season of Dr Who starts soon.
I certainly hope so. I'm gay for David Tennant. I'll hate it when he leaves the show next season, but I hear that the guy they got to replace him is pretty good.

I thought they got the original too ?
Imagine an American remake of Dr.Who.

ugh, it'd probably star Tim Allen

They did, it was called Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.

I've never seen this Dr. Who bullshit that everyone jerks it over. The commercials for it makes it look beyond retarded.
-
Skip Dr. Who and go directly to Secret Diray of a Call Girl.

The first half of that was good, but the second half just got boring and ridiculous.

I used that site, or one really similar to it, to watch the first two seasons of House a few months ago.
Edit: Also, since we're posting TV videos, I think the ending to Battlestar Galactica was one of the best endings I've ever seen, of any show:
Last 5 mins of Battlestar Galactica (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ug4qqxBl3I&feature=channel_page#ws-lq-lq2-hq-vhq)

Just now I finally got to watch "The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency" on HBO. It's hilarious.

There's a ringing endorsement!

I've only watched two eps so far but I thought it was alright.
Cold Case
Without a Trace
Star Trek
Eastenders
Waterloo Road
Sorry I've got no Head
My name is Earl
Dr Who.
-
That asshole point is for Eastenders
-

Figures.
Also Have I got News For you, QI, Peep Show and Mock The Week. When they're actually on.
-
I dont know what they are.
But 1 cool point for Dr Who.
-
So, I'm the only mofo who watches Ideal. ?
I'm go to throw in Shameless.
-
Shameless is excellent. As is Skins.
-
pfft, where the fn point then, bitch.
-
Shameless is excellent. As is Skins.
Skins? And you judged me.
-
Yes. Yes I did.
Skins is excellent. Eastenders is Neighbours with cockney accents. Ugh!
At least Danielle Westbrook only has one nostril.
-
Skins is excellent. Eastenders is Neighbours with cockney accents. Ugh!
I watched both when I lived over there!
When I was back for a holiday this summer, I saw some of some new (to me) show called Hollyoaks. God, it was just awful. Yet somehow strangely compelling. I sat there, appalled, through about 3 different episodes. It's hypnotic.

I was shocked when I found people who actually watched it. Although to be fair it was mostly drooling teenage girls.
-
That sounds about right. It was sort of like a crappier, more Northern, more emo version of Grange Hill.
-
I want a Press Gang movie.

I hate the cheap, crappy, stoner humor that Adult Swim keeps making more of, and I've lost faith in british comedies not made by Simon Pegg.
But for some weird reason I like The Mighty Boosh...
-
I am watching my first ep of mad men, right now, SBS.
-
I d/l'd the first episode of the new season of Ashes to Ashes the other night.
They finally nailed it. Nice and creepy in the Life on Mars way. 'bout time too.
And I'm still not sure if Keely Hawes is hot or not.

Nurse Jackie on Showtime is turning out to be a really good show.
-
Christ on a stick, how much time do you people spend watching TV each week?
-
....about 14 hours. most of it news/doco while doing other things.
why how much do you watch....and does living in a country that doesnt speak english change you tv habbits ?
-
0, or depending if I watch a ball game on the weekend maybe 2 or 3. I probably watch less than 10 hours of TV per year, and all of that being sporting events, usually in a bar with friends. If I was in NZ it would be a bit more, because I'd watch Rugby and Cricket matches.
Actually it was living in the states that cured my TV habit. We didn't have a TV so I didn't watch any and just read a lot for 6 months, after that I've never felt the need to go back.
Being in Japan plays a little part, because I don't feel compelled to "give a show a try". However when I'm at someone elses house with cable over here and people watch TV I start wandering around looking for a book or newspaper.
When I was a kid I was a TV junkie, mornings and evenings every day. I guess I watched enough TV before turning 21 to last me a lifetime.
-
ah, I didnt know about the US stint...The USA cures alot of things.
-
It cures your will to live.
-
I probably watch 1/4 hour minimum each day. 2 hour maximum.
Mainly because I watch when I eat dinner.
Honestly, I spend way too much time on the internet instead.
-
I spend time on the net at work, mostly surfing news sites, email, here or real-estate stuff. Its probably because of the computer job that I avoid screens the rest of the time.

Yeah, I did work experience at a computer for a while, I don't think I could take a computer job.
-
My TV at home is basically an end table right now where I drop my pocket accessories when I get home from work.
I do watch some shows on hulu on my computer monitor (which is nicer than my TV anyways).
I just got into Kings on NBC.
-
I work somewhere around 45-55 hours per week, depending on the season. There are TVs all over the office, all on all the time. Does passive TV hearing/occasionally glancing at count? Also, does doing something else while Amy watches stuff count? Do movies count?
Depending on how we define this, I spent anywhere between about 3 hours per week and 65 hours per week watching TV.
-
I counted all my passive and glance.
-
I WATCH PRONOGRAPHY!!!
There. I said it.
-
The mirror on the ceiling does not count.
-
But its the best way to masturbate!

I bought a converter box, it's still in it's box.

Are you fucking serious?!? They sent the ships into the sun and they have the Cylon fucking ghosts run around criticizing everyone... "will they ever learn?" whatthefuckever.
OH, and the cavemen. God in Heaven seriously? They want us to believe civilized space-faring humans would settle down and make it with half-retarded nearly evolved cavemen??
my brain hurts now...

I've been watching ReGenesis (http://www.hulu.com/regenesis?c=Horror-and-Suspense) lately on Hulu. It's pretty good. Much better than American TV. I think they are getting ready to dump it though like they did Dexter.

I don't either. Since the digital shift over I haven't turned a single TV on. I have a converter box but the fucker is still IN the box. I have cable too. Recently they had to come out and replace the wire to my house. He said all the pay channels are enabled for now. I STILL DO NOT HAVE A TV CONNECTED!
-
I have an 8 year old Samsung Synchmaster that acts as my television and my computer monitor when my old Sony decides to work. Problem is the coax connector to the tuner is proprietary and they don't make it anymore. So I have to strip the RG-6, push it into the receptacle on the back and tape it into place. If someone (read: tulip or any of the plethora of mental retads) comes in to get a pen from my desk and moves the monitor, it falls out and I have to take the whole thing apart and fix it. Going to put this bastard into my Airstream, hook it up to a DVD player and leave it there. Buy a tv. Maybe.
-

hmm, I wouldn't recommend Glee for finding a role model.

I find it a little weird that Eastenders is younger than me, if only by a couple years.
really? You ever watch it?
I find it a bi weird I remember eastenders from the nineties and early noughties

Not since about '93, but yeah.

Theyve started showing degrassi on saturday mornings. It is so different, i prefered the older chars i think, but i still mostly like it.
Also watch 90210 now, its hilarious.
Monk.
And the cut, which is on after degrassi, its just another school drama. Not as colourful as degrassi.
And glee! Its just so funny.

I know you miss it Si....

I kinda do, although I have to say I can pretty well get my UKTV fix from BBC America. I even watched a couple episodes of this new Dr Who last night. I'm not totally sold on the new guy, but it was cool seeing Daleks again.
-
I watcxhed the Dalek ep last night.
I dont mind the new guy.
The new girl should be in the 'wanna fuck' thread.
-
Agreed, as well as the queen chick from the previous one.
-
I think River Song (Alex Kingston) is totally hot

Agreed. I had major chub for the black girl from a few seasons back too...
-
Martha jones. She was pretty.
Also eastenders is interesting again, they have some new (for me) stuff i.e. A muslim family coming to terms with a gay son. Most interesting plot line in a while... Although dragged out.

is it all "dirka dirka" and "bakka lakka lakka"?
-
Billie Piper's overbite still gives me a chub.

Baaaakka laaaaakka laaaaaaaaaaakka?

DIRKA DIRKA MOHAMMED JIHAD!

I take it you're now watching Secret Diary of a Call Girl, then, yes?

I watched that show until the second season. When it was "I fuck people for money because I like it and screw you if you have a problem with that" it was a good show, but now it's all whiny "Oh woe is me I can't have a boyfriend because I fuck six other men every night" bulllshit and I've completely lost interest and any sympathy.

Yes. Although as Billie put it, her dad can't watch the show either because he's a carpenter, and he drops by the merchant or the union hall and the guys are like "Saw your Billie on telly last night, hauling out her tits again"... which is always nice.
-
I watched an ep or two at some point and got bored. Too much drama, not enough tits. Californication has about the right ratio.
-
My favorite two right now are Nurse Jackie and United States of Tara on Showtime. True Blood is coming back on again soon so that's good, but HBO is starting to scare me with some of the shows it's carrying now. It started with that low-budget show that Louis C.K. made that was kinda funny sometimes, but now they're starting to air these stupid shows that are little more than Adult Swim knockoffs. It doesn't help that one of them is just a bunch of crappy Ricky Gervais podcasts with cheap animation cobbled together to make it a TV show. I hate Ricky Gervais and I wish he would die in a fire.
On that note, whatever happened to British comedy? The UK used to be the masters of television comedy, and now the best thing that's been brought over in the last decade is Mighty Boosh, and it's not THAT good.
-
Johnny it's not like the old days. It's hard to dislike you when you're spot on. Louis CK is a tool, Jim Norton was the only funny thing on that show. Gervais is a shit, those animated soundbites make me want to cancel my cable subscription. The movies on SyFy (gay name change) are complete shit (Mongolian Death Worm... WTF man...) but the new Stargate series is kind of cool. And Merlin... it's like Camelot for teen girls. I don't get it.
-
Mighty boosh was goddamn hilarious.
Outnumbered is the bbcs new comedy.
-
Oh yeah SGU is good. I never watched any of the previous Stargate shows but I gave it a chance because I liked the sound of the premise, and it's on my top ten list right now. I have a hard time watching stuff on "SyFy" though, for exactly that reason, I can't even stand to watch the ADS for the other shit that they air, like that stupid worm movie. Me and my roomate were making fun of it jsut last night with the "Inspired by a REAL Operation: Truth!" (or whatever) investigation. Whoop dee doo, you made a horrible movie based on an episode of one of your even more horrible "paranormal investigation" shows. If it weren't for SGU and Dr Who my TV would never touch SyFy. And I may stop watching Dr Who depending on how well this new guy measures up to David Tennant. I think I'm a little gay for Tennant. Yeah, I said it.
Strangely enough, I like Warehouse 13. I know it's bad, I know it's cheesy, but I like it and I don't know why.
-
Matt smith, i like him, hes very energetic. Looks like a junkie in several shots but hes good imo.
The writing in these new eps isnt as good, it gets kinda confusing sometimes like in the ww2 ep.
-
I like the Ricky Gervais Show.

If you feel like it, download Underbelly. More tits per minute than Californication, and horrible Australian acting. What's not to like?
-
I don't have a TV now. Maybe I'll get one come baseball season, maybe I'll go to the pub more. Either is a win
I don't either. Since the digital shift over I haven't turned a single TV on. I have a converter box but the fucker is still IN the box. I have cable too. Recently they had to come out and replace the wire to my house. He said all the pay channels are enabled for now. I STILL DO NOT HAVE A TV CONNECTED!
Count me in on the non-TV viewing audience. I've got NetFlix and access to Hulu/etc. sites.
The only thing I really miss is any NEWS ~ skewed or otherwise. It's almost like, the more I can reach out and touch the ENTIRE world? The more my little world shrinks in around me. I can't care, anymore, about society, as a whole, 'cuz it's FUCKED UP, and represents pretty much everything I'm against. I'm swiftly losing whatever National Identity I might have had, 'cuz we evidently aren't Americans, we're a bunch of fucking immigrants and minorities that NEED pretty much Everything to live, or have USED others in our reckless ambition of becoming something to write home about.
Tru? You're still my Hero!
Zoomer? YOU'RE still my wet dream! lol
The three of us could marry,
sit around, NOT watching TV and getting drunk! lol
We'll call ourselves: Tru-Fyre-Zoom
and as soon as our union is recognized?
We'll adopt Dylan,
and call him our little Dyl pickle!
Now THERE's a nuculear famBily!!!
-
Zoomie TruFyre. Sounds like a native American name.
The rest of it I'll pass on. Love you both but like Tru I'm old, grumpy and I have guns. Not a good mix.
-
Yeah besides, don't you have a church lady husband that has banned you from posting your tits anyway? WTF could he fit into that mix.
-
Can you three please take this conversation to /dev/null
-
Naw, I took your mom there last night and she didn't like the grease on the floor.
-
church lady husband
HAHAHAHAHA

I'm all about "The IT Crowd", it's fucking hilarious ...
However, it's not ported to the US yet ...
-
I actually love you right now!
... Because I love that show!! Its so hilarious. xD
-
I've been digging That Mitchell & Webb Look. Peep show, not as much, although it has its moments.
-
Futurama?
futurama.
eastbound and down? (watching my first episode as i type this...)
Futurama's always been good.
Anyway, I just saw my first ep of Eastbound and Down. Fuckin'A!
