View Full Version : TV - Watch or Not?
sderenzi 12-10-06, 12:39 AM A poll to determine how many members on SciForums watch television. I would also like to mention TV seems to be somewhat dull and boring right now, can anyone suggest their favorites programs?
Correction = Don't Watch TV (or rarely, meaning less than 1 time a week) = Probably should say "less than 2 times a week")
Prince_James 12-10-06, 12:44 AM I casually watch television throughout the day, paying attention to things I find interesting.
Fraggle Rocker 12-10-06, 12:50 AM Why is this not in the Arts & Culture forum where it belongs?
Shows I watch faithfully:

The Daily Show

mountainhare 12-10-06, 01:03 AM TV? Huh? What's a TV?
spuriousmonkey 12-10-06, 02:21 AM I don't have a TV. For several years already.
phoenix2634 12-10-06, 02:55 AM I usually watch Lost and the Simpsons. Football--NFL and college. Sometimes I'll watch either the Late Show or the Tonight Show.
I grew up on TV, i mean with TV. It is quite beautiful, for what it is, nice and warm, takes me inside another place. I get out when i can.>|<
Yeah right now it is boring, just watch that channel with the old sitcoms 'cause you learn alot. You aLSO GATT A FIND THE FLAG, we cant salute you without it.
I love TV. People who don't have a TV or think it's shit are pretentious bores. I'm listening to a podcast with my headphones and STILL my TV is on in the background. TV taught me English, it taught me a bunch of stuff, it is immensely educational and entertaining.
I am a very intelligent, very literate person, and I love TV. And I'm not ashamed of it. So there.
I have a TV but very little time to watch it. There's nothing I watch on a regular basis and I usually watch a little bit of everything from news, history, travel, TV shows, cooking, cartoons depending on what the time is, how tired or focused I am and of course, my mood. I watch comedy more than anything else, my favorites being the Daily Show and South Park. I like Boston Legal and House too, but I usually do not get a chance to watch.

leopold99 12-10-06, 06:22 AM I have a TV but very little time to watch it.
i guess your 80 posts a day is taking its toll.
Prince_James 12-10-06, 06:22 AM My favourite shows, in no particular order:
Lost
Heroes
Battlestar Galactica
House
Boston Legal
Jericho
Jeopardy
I also am a whore for reality TV and I rather fancy Live! With Regis and Kelly, which I try to catch in the morning. I also regularly watch Stargate and Stargate: Atlantis. Mail Call, Mythbusters, and Survivorman also kick some serious rear end.
My all time favourite shows are Little House on the Prairie and Friends. Sliders, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Highlander, Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman, and Hercules/Xena are honourable mentions.
Prince_James 12-10-06, 06:24 AM I'm also a huge fan of old sitcoms. Happy Days, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeanie, The Munsters, The Addam's Family, I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Green Acres...
And of course, I really loved the original Star Trek, too.
i guess your 80 posts a day is taking its toll.

where's my cattle prod?
where's my cattle prod?
Is that what you call it? Why? Does the sight of it drive people away?:D
leopold99 12-10-06, 06:50 AM cattle prod, noun, a broomstick with a taser on the end.
ooooh now that's heavy.

People who think that people who have no tv are pretentious bores are just plain whores.
lixluke 12-10-06, 07:54 AM I don't watch TV at all. I download shows.
Heroes
Battlestar Galactica
Eureka
Heroes had some dull moments, but the last few episodes have been picking up.
Battlestar Galactica has mostly really great episodes, and a few really bad ones. They had alot of good action at the beginning of this season, and slowed down into a dismal state of uneventful boredom.
Eureka is awky and sometimes dry. But it's fun to watch. I have seen every episode of these shows.
South Park of course I have seen many episodes of that. The only 2 I saw this season was the Atheist War Nintendo Wii 2-part saga.
lixluke 12-10-06, 07:58 AM People who think that people who have no tv are pretentious bores are just plain whores.
I agree. I don't have a TV. I download particular shows, but trying to get off of it. It's like smoking crack and total waste of my time. If I could stop I would. Anybody that promotes TV is a pretentious whore.
