I always end up watching my two reality shows- Suvivor and Dancing with the Stars!
But this time around even I won't stoop so low as to watch "I love New York 2" even I have tv standards. hmph!

you're right. imo TV has become utterly boring and banal.
there are a few good shows out there, but most pander to the new social trend of "lookit me!" in the form of 'reality' TV shows


imo "House" is a good show. and Supernatural is pretty fun. i don't really watch TV much anymore though.

Most tv seems to consist of a bunch of morons washing their dirty linen in public in the hope they will get their 15 minutes.

Supernatural is pretty fun.

woot! I have just started watching Supernatural on-demand Its like scooby doo mixed with the x files.

"24" really needs to step it up this year.

"The Simpsons" is great.

I watched a couple episodes of "Two and a Half Men" and they were OK.

The only consistently good shows IMHO are "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report".

I do not watch any reality shows except for the first few episodes of "American Idol".

:disbelief:Heroes just lost my interest with the stoopid "what's in the box" ploy. The show must have new writers. That was the only show that renewed faith in television.....well, then again,there's its always fun to see the make over episodes on Top Model lol

It's easy to get into TV. Just open up the box and climb into that mug.
