Is it a cartoon? A sitcom? weekly documentary?

What show will you just turn the phone off and completely be absorbed in?


Personally for the longest time I would stop to watch 'The Crocodile Hunter' every week.

That is easy, currently 'Desperate Housewives'.

It is a Sunday night prime time sitcom. It has a Twin Peaks twist, for those of us who remembers 'Who Killed Laura Palmer'. It has every day desperate housewife lifes, varying from the wife having the affair, the mom about to have a nervous breakdown raising 4 kids, life after divorce, and when your marriage is falling apart.

It comes on ABC, Sunday night 8 pm Central.

I don't have anything I stop everything to see, but I'll go out of my way to catch Father Ted and My Hero off and on, lately.

Yesterday I was annoyed because SCI channel has a deal on the Mt. Vesuvius/Pompei thing and I don't get that channel and I wanted to see it. :mad:

Family Guy and Simpsons reruns.

The Simpsons is the only program I care the slightest about nowadays, and even then I don't stop what I am doing to watch it. TV for me is all about movies and sports.

Well, now that Buffy and Angel are gone...I am really into Lost. One of the writers from Buffy and Angel, David Fury, is the Executive Producer and a writer on the show. Its got Charlie from Party of Five, and a Hobbit from Lord of the Rings! :nice:

I also gotta watch ER, and Survior - the ONLY Reality show I wil watch. :cool:

Not much anymore... pretty much just football :nice:

Nothing now because I have DVR. I can watch them whenever now. It’s weird cause now I don’t like to watch the show when it comes on because of the commercials. I’ll wait till its over and then watch it so I can fastforward through the commercials.

Personally for the longest time I would stop to watch 'The Crocodile Hunter' every week.

I suppose the Adult Swim Comedies would come closest, but I dont even have cable.

Hey when it first came on it was great.. plus that is the type of thing I always wanted to do so it was kinda living vicariously though him what I wasn't doing.

Crikey!

:D

Most Extreme Elimination Challenge! Only because it's impossible to find anymore. (I need Tivo)

I LOVE Crikey...aka Stevo

Any BBC programme, ESPECIALLY:

"FAWLTY TOWERS"


"MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS"



"RED DWARF"



"ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS"

And as far as Domestic (American) fare:

"BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD"

And there you ARE! :cool:

scrubs. best comedy ever

24, the shield.

Other than that, its mostly tivo and watch later.

I'm a sucker for Law & Order. I can't think of any program that rivets me to the seat. My wife watches this 30 minute cooking show on the Food Channel with this cute chick with a great voice.

law and order is awesome. but the beauty of the show is that you don't have to stop everything to watch it. just turn on the tv and chances are at least one channel is showing an episode

I have to admit I watch law and order sometimes. That said, it has some of the worst one-liner dialogue in the history of television.

I'll stop to watch Scrubs, Desperate Housewives, Stargate, and the new Battlestar Gallactica - when it starts.

The Twilight Zone (Black and White), The Simpsons

That 70's Show (not so much the newer ones though)

A Vikings/Packers game

When I had cable:

Trauma: Life In The ER
A Baby Story

"MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS"

Anyone who does this is pathetic.

Anyone who does this is pathetic.

This from someone who lists their real name as
"Finding Nemo" :rofl:

1) The Family Guy
2) Beavis and Butthead
3) South Park

two shows

- Arrested developement
-new epsiodes of the Simpsons

TV shows? Seinfeld


Movies? This is embarrassing. Pretty Woman, Urban Cowboy, Mommie Dearest and Bonnie & Clyde. I watch em every time.

LOL! :D Urban Cowboy is like made-for-TV crack. :o

Seinfeld
Buffy
Angel
The E True Hollywood Story

and Brady Bunch reruns ofcourse :D

I don't, but the closest thing to it is the Daily Show.

they dont play monty python on the bbc over here anymore :(

True. Not since PALIN, IDLE, CLEESE, (The Estate of ) CHAPMAN, & Co. own the rights to the show.

But they DO surface on DOMESTIC (American) telly now & again.

WHEREVER I happen to be in the world, though...

Make MINE the BEEB!!!! :nice:

TV shows? Seinfeld

It was okay, I guess.....but I dug his live standup material alot more..(Saw him twcie to date..)


Movies? This is embarrassing. Pretty Woman, Urban Cowboy, Mommie Dearest and Bonnie & Clyde. I watch em every time.

"BONNIE & CLYDE" was a KICKASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS movie!!!!! I actually wore out two VHS tapes of that film...playin' 'em over & over on my nights off from the Cleveland Police Department (THINK about the city I was in then!)

Sopranos and 24. I MUST see it every week. If I miss a Family Guy or Simpsons, you can always see it later, but Sopranos and 24 are so important to stick with week after week.

Sopranos
Lost
Desperate Housewives
Friend re-runs
Access Hollywood (!)
SNL
The Simpsons reruns



prollly more, I can't think!

*biff*Your graphic is really funny!

Survivor, NCIS, Cold Case and Two and 1/2 Men. The Oscars. Golden Globes. And I don't wanna say this...Joan of Arcadia.

Try to catch Two and 1/2 Men and CSI shows. Movies run a wide range and some I watch time and time again - like Pretty Woman, The Color Purple

Movies run a wide range and some I watch time and time again - like Pretty Woman, The Color PurpleI don't usually watch a lot of movies over again, but I love these two: "Good Will Hunting" and "Good as it Gets". I watch those when I'm bored or there's nothing else on. I have "Pretty Woman". I like that movie too.

BTW, I LOVE your sig photo. It's beautiful. The colors would look good with my avatar!

Zoey

Law and Order CI, Law and Order SVU, and the regular Law and Order.... Joan of Arcadia, The Medium, Jeopardy:D

Oh, good! Another Joan of Arcadia fan. And I really like the Medium too. I think it will have a run.:nice:

I would say the OC but I have Tivo so its not an issue.

Lost, 24, ER, Surivivor....Days of our Lives (taped every day on the DVR)
Buffy or Angel reruns.

I loved "Good as it Gets"! Nicholson was also good in the one with Diane Keaton - just can't think of the name right off the top of my head. I have lots of movies, but I usually get ones that I'm pretty sure I'll watch more than once.

Thanks - those are my beloved Great Smoky Mountains - they renew my soul!

I returned the cable TV gear to the cable company this week after realizing it was costing me NZ 39 per week, and that I hadn't watched five minutes of television in the past six months.

In fact the last time I watched more than 15 minute of TV was probably 2 or 3 years ago.

I only watch movies, or rented series seasons. Simply don't have the patience for all the crap on TV: its pollution of the most insidious kind :)

M.

CSI:Miami:NY:
Missy's Road to Stardom
Extreme Makeover (sometimes)
Digimon (3rd Season)

I'll stop for Buffy reruns, Lost, Simpsons and Scrubs (love the visual one-liners). If I can't get some good comedy once a day I would probably drown myself in the kitchen sink.....

Wow - we've got the same taste! Isn't it cool that David Fury does Lost? No wonder we like it! :nice:

Savannah - I can watch reruns of the Color Purple over, and over, and over again. its my favorite movie of all time.

I like Lost and Desperate Housewives.

I agree SecretSamadhi. The Color Purple is emminently re-watchable. So glad that you also enjoy my faves. bijou

The only two shows that I will stiop everything for are "24" and "The Lost World" (even though they're reruns)

I love
LOST
ALIAS
THE O.C. :nice:

House. But I'm never home when it's on, as Jujitsu is more important then TV, but I watch it commercial free on TiVo as soon as I get home.

House.
House is great, I love scrubs, I wish I could get News Radio re runs especially the show with the rat they keep putting down the mail chute

Pornos and naked men :D

Days of our lives, Survivor, The Medium, American Idol, and InuYasha (doubt any of you have heard of it- Inuyasha is an anime show).

Desperate Housewives and Amazing Race are my only "stop everything" shows

Little Britain, At Home with the Braithwaites, Dalziel & Pascoe, Wire in the Blood, The Bill, Hustle, and Nighty Night

I will stop everything to watch HBO on sunday nights. It used to be for the X-Files..but now that it is sadly not on any more i have addicted myself to HBO

*PayPal Email “get-rich-quick” scheme… Does It Work? *
Well… Yes it does. And there is no reason why it won’t work for you. Just read on and see how it’s done.



If you think anybody is going to fall for this scam, you are sorely misguided.

I love the Westerminster and Eukanuba Dog Shows on Animal Planet.

Right now it's 24, Family Guy and Real Time with Maher

Lost, Alias, and the OC.

Lost, Alias, 24, House,and BSG (when the new season starts)

I love Seinfeld, rerun or not.
I will also drop everything to watch the Dukes of Hazzard and can't wait for the second season of the 4400.

Lost- which is new tonight!

And Buffy / Angel - or Deadwood. Always.

All I know is that Sunday night, I am dropping everything for the 4400.
Is anyone with me?

Was Desperate Housewifes, Lost, Judging Amy.

But like someone else said, I copy and watch later, skipping commercials.
