Here we go...

Grey's Anatomy
The OC
Veronica Mars
Prison Break
Scrubs
nip/tuck
Lost
My Name Is Earl
How I Met Your Mother
CSI
King of Queens
The Simpsons (even though I think they should quit)
King of the Hill
Ellen (Yes, I think she's hilarious.)
The Late Show
Late Night
Paula's Home Cooking
Miami Ink
American Chopper
Deal or No Deal

Shows that I mourn the passing of:

Biker Build-Off

The Office (The original BBC series. Not the poor American imitation.)
Arrested Development (thanks for reminding me)

Shows I've recently picked up:

The New Adventures of Old Christine
Heist

I'm quite aware of the girliness of some of my television selections. No need to point it out. I know I'm leaving out quite a few shows right now. I'll have to try to remember to edit this when I'm in front of my TV tomorrow.

Prison Break
Lost

There are no other shows on as far as I'm concerned.

Honerable mention goes to The Office and Sons & Daughters

Best show since Seinfeld when off the air: ARESTED DEVELOPMENT. Fox killed it with 100 different crappy timeslots. Everyday I get sad when I think about how it's not on anymore.

I have to co-sign that sentiment about Arrested Development. Such a clever show. I have the last 2 hours on my TIVO box and I won't delete it.

I don't like to take my work home with me so I don't watch much television. Like many wives, my better half is addicted to all those home improvement & decorating shows that litter the lower tier of cable. I don't watch much but when I do the following have entertained me:

Prison Break (my current fave)
60 Minutes (yeah I know I'm getting old by listing it)
The Simpsons
My Name is Earl (I'm embarassed to list it but it is extremely funny)

Most of the time I'm watching shows with my kids so I'm much more up on Nick, DisneyChannel & Boomerang than anything else. I had forgotten how great the old Looney Tunes were until Boomerang came along. Speedy Gonzalez & Droopy are still awesome after all these years.

Of course I do take in a large chunk of sports both at work & home. But i admit that Sportscenter bores me with all of their over-production these days.

I am a reality freak!! Since I got a DVR, I find myself watching tv more often (I can skip through the commercials)

REALITY
Survivor (although I have watched none of this seasons)
The Real World
The Surreal Life
Celebrity Fit Club (I watch it off and on....it is funny watching these former celebrities break down...watch it during a marathon)

DRAMAS
CSI (both, but I prefer Miami although I have only watched about 3-4 episodes of each this year)
24
Lost
Prison Break
Las Vegas
Boston Legal (William Shatner is soooo funny in this show. It usually preaches a liberal message, but I like this show)

SITCOMS
Scrubs
Simpsons
My Name is Earl
The Office

I have started watching Free Ride, but I expect it to get cancelled. It is funny at times, but I don't think it will make it.

Agree w/ SLY- my viewing choices are normally limited to Nick1, Nick2, NickToons (thanks DirecTv for supporting my 6 yr olds addiction), Animal Planet, on occasion PBS kids or Noggin, though not so much anymore.

When I commandeer the remote: its History Channel, History International, Discovery, The Military Channel (formerly Discovery Wings), A&E, Speed Channel, ESPN (all variations), the NFL channel, Comedy Central.

When Mrs2b has control: whatever channel has "That 70's show" in syndication, Comedy Channel, any channel w/ "Will and Grace", Mad Tv and SNL, esp the older shows running in syndication.

News is Fox News only.

I watch a lot of reruns when my hubby isn't home so that I can watch some girly shows.

We watch a lot of Speed Channel and we both like Overhaulin' and Dr. 90210.

Amazing Race, The Apprentice, American Idol.

Scrubs, and reruns like Raymond, Friends and That 70's show.

We can't watch much when the children are up. I also watch Days of our Lives every once and awhile(anyone else?).

Has anyone seen Trick My Truck? It's basically Pimp My Ride but for 18-wheelers. It's amazing. I like it a lot more than Pimp My Ride. The stuff they do and the paint jobs are amazing.

Star Trek
Lost in Space
The Jetsons
Battlestar Gallactica
NASA Channel

I used to watch PADMA everytime she was on Food Network, but that got my light sabre in a tizzy and fogged up my helmet.

OK, on the serious side:
Extreme Makeover, Home Edition (but fading as it gets so repetetive)
House--great show, one that PAMedic must watch when not on duty
According to Jim--funniest show on TV.
SportsCenter
Weather Channel--especially Hurricane Coverage (sorry Brokeback, I got dibs on the man-crush on Cantore)
History Channel--especially WWII
Countdown, with Keith Olberman
American Idol, of course
Law and Order
Law and Order, CI (can't stand the subject matter on SVU)

Uh-oh A.G....Brokeback might be coming after you, winner gets Cantore.

In the meantime, that Jennifer Lopez on TWC looks mighty fine :D

American Chopper has become a classic at our place- nothing like a bit of domestic violence to make me feel better about my life.

Like Dr 90210 as well (whoever said that one), Inked and the nearly identical Miami Ink.

anything on Sci Fi when Mrs2b doesn't have to watch with me.

My List Top TiVo List:

1. PTI (cant get enough of it)

2. American Idol

3. Seinfeld (about 10 hours on TiVo)

4. High Stakes Poker (great show if you enjoy poker, it's the good players playing a cash game, about 40k per pot)

5. The Apprentice

6. Survivorman (PA you would love this, he's placed in tons of different situations for 1 week and has to survive using his enviroment)

7. American Inventor

8. American Casino (like american chopper but in a casino)

9. Family Guy

10. Chappelle's Show

11. Run's house (Rev Run from Run DMC, his reality show...he's a big christian and reads Maxwell's book on there some)

12. World Poker Tour

13.Airline (reality tv show with Southwest Airlines)

14. Dallas SWAT (it's like Dog the Bounty Hunter but these guys are real and not fake like dog!...its a real look at Dallas' SWAT team)

15.MEGAstructures (unreal docuentory's, it is like the bio chanel on steriods and can hold your attention for the full time)

16. BlowOut (reality TV show with a guy and his salon...ok I feel gay now)

** forgot to add MythBuster's!!!!!

Blowout is my guilty pleasure as well- Mrs2b watched it tonite while I'm at work and I'm hoping for the run down tomorrow AM. My excuse is that my aunt runs a salon down toward the city so I can say its sorta the family bidnezz.

Love those Megamachine and Megastructure shows. Me and the boy are glued to the tube when they're on.

Watched Survivor man for about 15 min one nite and it looked like a bunch of crap so I channel surfed and never went back. Looks fake to me.

I feel like Inked focuses too much on the screw-ups that work there while Miami Ink focuses more on the...ink. Yeah. Just my opinion, though.
