3. Does subbed anime count?
Ouran High School Host Club and BLEACH would then happen to be my favorite current shows. They're shown on TV in Japan, then subbed by fans and put online :D

99. It is
It's really cute and funny. It's not a harem in that all of the guys are attracted to the one girl, she's just kind of stuck with them.

It's like crack cocaine the same way that VH1's Behind the Music was when it first came out. Plus, the host is supremely HOT.

5. Project Runway!
I hope Bravo reruns the first two seasons, as I just broke down and got cable for the first time in two years about 2 months ago.

The only other show I watch regularly is Eureka on the SciFi channel.

I was really looking forward to Boston Legal for Shatner and Spader, I've heard great things about it, but as it's on ABC, I'll probably not watch. Sigh.

My husband really likes Eureka, too, so I end up watching it. It's good for SciFi (not always my favorite).

Don't forget to "Make it work!"

9. Nip/Tuck But Then You Probably guessed that
Edited on Tue Sep-12-06 03:19 PM by Liberalynn
from whose in my banner. I accidentally clicked the wrong box though. I put Others when it is actually cable.

Second on my list is NCIS. I think Mark Harmon is cute, and I love the rest of the cast too. Got of give them a lot of credit for blending the comedy, drama, and mystery so well.

43. Deadwood
And I must be an optimist, because saying Deadwood is a "current" show is definitely an optimistic viewpoint (it's been "canceled", but fans have been promised two two-hour movies to wrap it all up...I'll believe it when I see them, though.)

"The Office" is a close runner up for a "current" fave.

And I've also recently gotten into Showtime's "Weeds" and "Brotherhood", which are both really good.

save that $12 per month. AND I had to watch all of "Big Love" when they ran all the episodes a few weeks ago. Can't wait to find out what's next with that one, either.

116. I canceled HBO and picked up Showtime
right after Deadwood's demise. Will probably pick up HBO again for the final Sopranos season, and if and when the two Deadwood "wrap-up" movies air.

Showtime has some good, engrossing shows. I'm already hooked on Weeds and Brotherhood!

Do you think we'll get our two movies? (I'm trying to be optimistic, but I keep hearing about all these movie deals various Deadwood hooples have landed, and it really makes me wonder just how they would pull it off, with all those actors already being committed to other projects.) Here's hoping, anyway...

73. I'm REALLY gonna miss that one.
I've watched the series at least 6 times now and I've concluded that I like it better than Seinfeld. And I LOVED Seinfeld.

83. Why would you miss it?
Are they not going to make anymore seasons or something? I hadn't heard anything like that, so I wondered what you meant. I know Larry "died" in the end of season 5, but he came back, so I assumed the series would continue. I don't have HBO, I've only watched all the DVDs, so I wouldn't necessarily be in-the-know about it. Do tell...

84. I'm pretty sure L.D. said that he's got one more season left in him
I think he was sort of debating after the fifth season, but he's decided to do one more now.

101. Well, I was wrong.
I had read a while back on TV.com that it was very unlikely that the show would continue. But now I read that HBO has confirmed a sixth season.

http://www.tv.com/tracking/viewer.html?tid=97162&ref_id=3720&ref_type=101&tag=headlines;title;1

Happy day!

It's not going to air until 2007 though.

114. Why would you miss it? It's coming back for a 6th season.
It was confirmed by Jeff Garlin not too long ago, and HBO has said that they're currently wrapping up filming for it.

65. Stargate SG-1 of course
With SG: Atlantis and Dead Zone right behind it.

And if it's network TV, it would have to be CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, the original.

It rocks--I just wish Season 2 was coming out on DVD before November(!), though.

75. "The Wire" is the best show by far. Artistically ambitious, superb
in all regards. Great writing, acting, social consciousness.

The best of all the HBO series, better than "The Sopranos".

Ignored by the Emmys for reasons unknown.

It's the only programme I watch with any real regularity.

87. NFL Sunday, though I'd watch Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations if
I had cable.

The only other television I watch are syndicated shows in the afternoon. Of those, I love Eight Simple Rules and Bernie Mac, both of which are suprisingly sophisticated for television, I think.

90. On DVD
I only watch television shows when they come out on DVD - and there are not many of those. I like Lost and the new Battlestar Galactica. And I have a couple others that have yet to be viewed.

92. Simpsons by just a little over Young And The Restless
Edited on Wed Sep-13-06 11:18 AM by mvd
I watch Y&R more consistently nowadays, but nothing beats a great Simpsons show. I also like Big Brother, though I was disappointed in the final two this year. I was rooting for Ivette last year, but this year I wanted Janelle to win. Will deserved to be with her in the final two.

100. Deadwood--even though I don't have HBO.
I Netflixed the first season--then bought it. A show that definitely bears repeating--will buy the rest, eventually.

Yeah, Colbert & the Daily Show are also Must See TV.

I watched Lost at first, but then lost track. Would Netflixing the DVD's put money in The Mouse's pocket?

And I'm becoming a Veronica Mars fan. (What to do after Buffy's gone.)

Guilty pleasure on BBCamerica: Footballers' Wives! Not current in the UK, but new to me.

Surprisingly good.

Fans of Battlestar Galactica should look into it. David Goyer helped develop it.

I love the cranky crinkle factor. Am anxiously awaiting the OFFICE! And hoping for a decent Amazing Race since it has my 2 favorite things, travel and couples bitching while driving. So homey.
