I like:

CSI:Miami is OK, but I don't llike Caruso.
CSI:NY is improving. As an expatriate NY'er, I love the locations.
Law and Order:Criminal Intent. Don't like the other two, but the character Robert Goren is so smart and neurotic I wish he was a real person, so I could meet him.
All sorts of stuff on History and Discover and Animal Planet, etc.

However, since I work 3:00 to 11:00 PM, all I really get to watch is reruns of CSI at 8:00 on Spike, because that's when I take my meal break at work.

Oh, and I forgot MXC. Stupid, but I laugh anyway. Makes me think of "What's Up, Tiger Lily?"

News, both network & PBS
Perry Mason
Seinfeld
PBS like GlobeTrekker & science & music & history &....
I used to watch cops but I dropped my little TV & the sound quit so I use my multi-band radio to get the audio but I don't get audio for UHF with it so I lost 2 channels.
___It seems partly a matter of why I watch too. I watch Perry Mason because it passes the time; Seinfeld because it makes me laugh; science because I have an irespressable urge to learn new things.

The original CSI is my favorite, too. However, I can't believe they split up the team! IMHO the show was better when they were together. It was mentioned somewhere that some of the cast members weren't happy with their contracts and that's why they're playing up Szmanda's character and giving him a bigger role in case the people who were not happy with their contracts don't come back next season. I know that one of them is Jorja Fox and the other one plays Brown on the show, I can't remember his name.

I like Futurama, sad its cancelled. But I miss what adult swim replaced: My insomniac daughter and I used to stay up late on Fridays watching Space Ghost Coast to Coast (which was still in first reruns when I was very small)....Now its mainly late night Lizzie McGuire reruns after Iron Chef...

Alias - Innovative and smart with nice twists and turns. One time I thought it would turn slighty less good, but they managed to avoid some clichées. Very good.
Lost - From the creator of Alias, I think. One of the best shows.
24 (I think they will show day 4 this year)
CSI (all three of them) Always interesting.
And this year Buffy in its entirety will be showed over here. Watched most of it last year when they speeded through all 7 seasons in one year. One very good show. I think the best part of this show is the characters, how they develop, and the interactions between them.
Angel - Rerun for us, but I'll watch it.
Joey - Loved Friends so I will watch this. I'm guessing it wont survive for more than two seasons, but who knows?

Then I'll be watching reruns of various shows I like, such as Simpsons, Friends, Spin City and such.

J.J. Abrams is a genius: Lets take Felicity's wimpy roommate and make her a kick-butt secret agent, with a heavy dose of "The Wild, Wild West"....(for you popliterary-types, see the parallels between Sloane and Dr. Loveless? We're talkin the series here, not the movie...). Rumors going around that Alias is on the brink: its always been considered a "cult" show, and no one was more surprised to see Lost become a huge hit than ABC and actually increase Alias' numbers over previous seasons, but people are switching over to American Idol after Lost, so its not carrying over what it should. I despise American Idol...

This show sure has its ups and downs. At least they've dropped "the Perils of Kim" in season 4. Some interesting twists this year (for those of you in the states, the previews of next week sure included a jaw dropper [no spoilers here])

Of course! Angel is underated. If you like "Buffy" you should like Angel, and I personally am glad the show gave Charisma so much more to work with as an actress. She's good!

Joey is struggling, but we record it and try to keep up (its opposite Survivor...) The pleasant surprise in this one is Drea DeMatteo, who totally steals the show. I like Matt, I think he's underrated and pigeonholed, but having an equal like Drea makes this show sing. Definitely worth the time, and hopefully NBC will stick with it for a little while.

Cheers,
Buffy

CSI (all three of them) Always interesting. I agree, would also add in some of the Law & Order series into this.

Buffy- have watched them all in rerun over the years and love the show.

Angel-I'd agree the show is under rated. Also used to watch the older Forever Night show which had its own interesting twist on the vampire story.

Have watched Stargate the series somewhat throughout its whole evolution. Can't say I'm a total fan of the series since its my wife that actually loves them.

I'm not much into the sitcoms and such that the networks have out there. Though the few I have watched over the years are interesting. More of a movie and series buff especially the SiFi type series(ie ST, Starwars, Babylon Five, etc.) Of these I have my favorites. I love ST, but saw a series like Babylon Five as closer to human future truth if we ever got out there. I like the whole Starwars storyline and find its admixture of eastern thought interesting in the least. One could consider Vadar as the real central character who runs the whole extreme from little questioning boy, to dark master of the force, and back again bringing both yin and yang into ballance in the process. Would also suggest that Obewan's mention of how things actually boil down to a certain perspective is right on when it comes to life and viewpoints in general.

Am I a freak because I still can't get enough of the Simpsons? I still tune in every Sunday night, and any day during the week when I'm at home between 5-6pm EST to watch them... I never get tired of it. Sigh... Also, I am horribly addicted to Family Guy and Futurama.

I do watch a lot of shows about building - I like Trading Spaces, et al, on TLC, and some of the same types of show on HGTV. Also a new one out called "I want that!" which has in the three episodes I've seen gotten my interest. USually on Sunday nights at 8:30pm (right after the simpsons, woopee!) on HGTV.

I have been watching American Idol this season (I know... sigh) and after that comes House, which I didn't want to like in the beginning, but I'm finding that I really am liking it, despite my stubborn bias.
