Favourite current TV shows

I can't think of ANYTHING right now that I make a special effort to watch.

 

I usually see Planet Earth, and I watch a bit of Football, but not always, not every single game etc.

If we lose, I don't bother watching Football First or Match of the Day, so there's quite a number of those I've not seen.

 

I do watch telly, but not nowhere near as much as I used to, and as I say, there's not much I make an effort to watch.

 

I listen to the radio, and use the internet much more than I watch the telly.

 

That seems quite strange, because 10, 5, even a couple of years ago there was always TV programmes that were unmissible. That's just not the case at the moment.

British TV is really naff at the minute.

I dont watch a great deal of TV. Mainly use the net or listen to radio. Favourite programs recently are..

 

Desperate housewives

 

Looking forward to Lost series 2 (so those that have already watched it, please dont put any spoilers here)!

 

American chopper. American Hot Rod.

 

Biker build off.

 

Top Gear

 

Poirot

 

Shameless, i got into this late on, i love it!! Brilliant program, probably my favourite right now. Still many episodes i havent seen because of work, think i'll have to buy the complete series to date.

 

Six feet under

 

if im bored i'll watch any old re-run of River cottage/Red Dwarf/Ray Mears Bushcraft

 

Documentarys...anything about space/genetics/murders/aliens/strange people...so on and so on :o

 

EDIT:

 

I forgot MOTD and weekend westcountry match, which is a strange program late on tues nights covering how our 3 local teams have got on...Torquay, Exeter and Plymouth, each week its broadcast from a different local pub :o

 

Better mention X factor aswell i suppose :o ....i have to admit to really enjoying watching the early stages covering the auditions, it makes me cringe but its hilarious TV :o

The actress who plays Dr Caroline Todd in Green Wing, Tamsin Grieg (she was also in Black Books).

 

Anyone else find her strangely attractive?

I never got Seinfeld either. My mate loves it so I tried to watch a few but never really got into it, same with Frasier (even though I loved Cheers).

 

The only thing I make sure I watch/tape every week at the moment are The Apprentice and the NHL on C5. Loads of shite I've got no inclination to watch on tele at the moment imo. The only soaps I watch are Neighbours (out of duty nowadays and not because I enjoy it) and Hollyoaks, not just for the blart either. I find myself reading more and more while the Mrs watches random shite.

Aha! other than Deal/No deal, that is - with the sound off (listening to that dwarf witter on about 'tactics' and 'brave contestants' is just too much).

Watched a show called Scrubs the other day, found it canny funny if not a bit too slick if you know what I mean. Don't think I'll go out and buy the series.
