    i love the simpsons! here, you can get to switch through four showings in the time between 5 and 7:30 pm. so, that timeslot is pretty much reserved. and after that its the news!

    desperate housewifes i also liked a lot. but just as x-files is no more..

    and the best of 'em all is showing again: twin peaks!!

    as you can see, we from switzerland are totally depending on US-shows..

    Twin Peaks IS the BEST drama EVER. (Not that I'm opinionated or anything). I think shows like X-Files and Supernatural and a lot of the newer quirky dramas owe a lot to TP, if not everything. Lynch blazed the way for quirky, eerie, dark dramas.

    Have not watched TV in many years. My favorite shows, based on owning the DVD's, would be Firefly and Cadfael.

    I feel like I am committed to all the CSI's.
    Scrubs
    Football, Nascar, & PBA while not shows do get watched
    Desperate Housewives
    Rescue Me & Over There are two midseason shows that Are Must see for me.
    Arrested Devolpment was the best show on tv, can't wait for the movie(thankyou Ron Howard).
    This season we deleted Las Vegas and That 70's Show from the Tivo, the writing really went down hill on both of them.

    Firefly is a great show, especially for any fan of Star Trek: TNG. You should also check out Serenity, the full length movie that was spawned from the show.

    Hmmm...I don't watch much TV, due to my work schedule, but on the rare occasions I happen to be near a TV when good stuff is on...

    Missing
    Without a Trace
    CSI (all are good, but the original is the best)
    My Name is Earl

    But most of the time I'll be watching DVDs, but that's a whole other thread
