I don't know if I just haven't been watching TV it past years but it seems that this years lineup is a lot stronger than ever before. I find myself watching a couple shows every night of the week. I though people might rattle of a few of their favorites since with so many on we are bound to be missing some good ones. My top five would have to be:

1) Kidnapped
2) The Unit
3) Smith
4) Jerico
5) Heroes

I'm curious, what could possibly be on MTV that you actually watch?

South Park, Family Guy, Lost, Heroes, The Office. For me, that's about it. Not too much good programming on television these days.

My current TV shows:

-The Class
-NUMB3RS
-The Amazing Race
-Heroes
-Adult Swim's Saturday night block of anime (Trinity Blood, Bleach, Eureka Seven, FLCL)

And if Youtube shows count, I'm also following Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series over there. Absolutely hysterical.

Right now I have to say Lost is my favorite show but Heroes was pretty sweet too. Also, NUMB3RS.

shitty dating shows are mtv's only purpose now. Next, Room Raiders, oh and that one show, "Made". Also that one show called "I wanna be you" or something about people who pick other normal people from their school who they wanna be like and then mtv makes them spend time together until one is changed. yeah. that's interesting. pretty soon they should just have a show called "i don't like who i am" about people just getting surgery and/or killing themselves.

Currently House is the only TV show I can stand to watch. The rest just don't seem all to interesting. (Mind you, I base this lack of interest in other tv shows on lame commercials) Also, I generally dislike television shows until I've been forced to sit down and watch them. This happened with Dead Like Me, House, and now Arrested Development is starting to win my affection. :p

I still enjoy The Daily Show and The Colbert Report for some good news. I am a big fan of Nip/Tuck. I know, it's kind of soap opera-ish, but it's still fun to watch. Also, I watch a lot of How It's Made. It looks stupid and boring, but trust me, you will be amazed by how some of the most simple things are made. First post woo!

Here's what my DVR is picking up for me right now:

Bones
Dr. Who
EuReka
Ghost Whisperer
Heroes
Jericho
Lost
My Name is Earl
Numb3rs
Runaway
Smallville
Smith
Standoff
Studio 60
Supernatural
The OfficeI'm also recording the Gilmore Girls, but I haven't watched those for so long I'm not really hyper to watch it. Between knitting and making jewelry, it's pretty much necessary to have something going on the TV while I work with my hands. So I record a lot of TV.

Not mentioned yet: The 4400, Battlestar Galactica, Deadwood, Lucky Louie, Weeds, The Venture Brothers, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Reno 911, and Blade(Yea, I said it).

Gone before their time: Arrested Development, Carnivale, Dead Like Me, The Tick, and of course Firefly.

weeds is pretty great. I watched the pilot for its always sunny and wasn't too impressed. should I give it another chance?

Definitely, season 2 is a lot funnier IMO, but if you didn't like the type of humor in the pilot then maybe the show isn't for you.

The new one. We are talking about shows OUT NOW. The 10th Doctor is so much better than the 9th Doctor. If you haven't torrented the 2nd season then catch it on Sci-Fi this fall.

I have a brown suit with blue pinstripes and bought a toy sonic screwdriver and a pair of 3D glasses off eBay so that I can be the 10th Doctor for Halloween.
