I find it particularly annoying when two stations owned by the same parent company not only show the same show at the same time ... but the same episode. Commercial timing only gives you the benefit of having one show faster then the other ... like commercially controlled live playback or something ... which can only be used once until commercials line up again.

It's really only something I've noticed a couple times.

I do a large amount of casual television use. Like, if I'm eating lunch, I'll flip on comedy central and watch a half hour stand up special.

Current shows I watch (with relative frequency):

Religiously: Scrubs; Arrested Development; Saturday Night Live

Frequently: Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law; Venture Brothers; Family Guy; Rescue Me; Reno 911; The Office (American)

Occasionally: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia; Two and a Half Men; Stella; Jeopardy!; MXC; Letterman, Conan, Craig Ferguson

Windows98, maybe you're finally starting to make sense! I hear you on that! With that stupid theme song and those ugly smiling ppl, its some of the worst commercials on TV.

Most of the times i watch the news, sometimes a movie and a documentary. Though most of the programs on Tv are not worth looking, all comercialized stuff.

6-8 hours for me, the news i watch steadily for every morning and evening.

Movies only when there are good ones on.

Documentary's only when i know there coming.

3-5 hours. There is probably one good movie up every week, and a bit of news daily. I don't follow any TV shows at all.

I watch scrubs if it's on, the Simpsons, and the news, but that's about it. Oh, and Top Gear whenever it's on.

Does anyone else like to watch LOST? I sure do.

I also like those shows where they make cars cool. Like Xtreme 4x4 TV, or Overhaulin, or American Hot Rod. I don't get to see them very often though... (ps, i don't like "pimp my ride" cox i really don't like the stuff they do.)

That's almost as bad as Monster Garage. They made a mustang into a lawnmower and a Zimmer into a log splitter. I hate that show too...

Lost is awesome, but we have to wait until feb for season 2.

Another good show is House. Its a medical drama, the best one I've seen. Doctors I know say its pretty realistic (in terms of the diseases and their effects). Also good is Numb3rs, a crime/mystery type show where a math professor helps solve crimes.

A fine selection here! Might want to add Stroker and Hoop to the list <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">, that and American dad (made by Seth Green the creator of Family Guy), and robit Chicken (also made by Seth Green). They are new and all kinda funny in their own way.

I don't understand the appeal of Stella. I watched an episode over the summer and I didn't find it funny at all.

It's a quirky sense of humor show. Basically ... if you liked the Upright Citizen's Brigade: there's a good chance you'll like Stella. But if you don't like retarded humor ... which can be sophisticated ... then ... to each his own.

I enjoy both of those shows though. Especially the URCB, what a fantastic show.

Hmm... if nip/tuck started again I would get an hour up to my TV time in week... I really liked the show. Now that another session of Bad Girls are up again, I will watch that, too So I get 2 hours once nip/tuck is back in action... I'd SO like to know what happened after Carver attacked Troy...

ps: if anyone knows, don't hesitate to tell me, I only want to know what happened!

I watch about 3-5 hours not including dvd's and anime series (Naruto, Full Metal Alchemist, Bleach, Hellsing, Trigun and GTO (all subtitled cause english voices suck)) ripped to my xbox. Nearly all the stuff I watch on TV is composed of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab, Harvey Birdman and the Brak Show. Also anyone watched SkitHouse in Australia? Some people actually think that lame ass crap is funny .

Worse was the one on channel 7, it was so bad it only lasted 2 episodes.
