 Topic: My Shows (USA)
Posted: May 13 2006 at 13:20 |
As far as I'm concerned, Seinfeld was the best television show ever. Monty Python and Arrested Development not far behind.
I strongly suggest everyone skeptical about American television to watch Arrested Development. Incredible is every way. Too bad Fox is a horrible company in every way and canceled it.

24 is the best show on TV (at least in America). It is the only show that i have ever stopped everything i'm doing to watch.

I voted Lost because it is unlike any other network tv show in existence but 24 is also right there at the top because Jack Bauer is Dirty Harry for the 21st century.

I'm completely hooked on 24. I am finding it a bit harder to suspend my disbelief this season, however.

Sit...com? That sounds vaguely familiar. It's hard to remember what came before "reality" TV.

24 from the list. I saw a few episodes of it and thought it was pretty good; tense etc..

Yeah, 24 is one of the coolest. Jack Bauer is hardcore. A personal TV show preference of mine would be Monk. I can relate to him.

None of the above. American TV is mostly a waste of time (except for sports of course). CSI is the best of a sorry lot.
Can't think of a single show currently running that I watch consistently.

I've only seen a few episodes of the new Battlestart Galactica, but it was very good.
most of the time I only have time for 2 hours of TV a week: the Sopranos and Big Love.
