24, Nip-tuck, Trailer Park Boys.

What do you guys watch? (By the way, I highly recommend Trailer Park Boys, every night on Paramount 2 @ 10:00.)

I agree with the first 2 (throw Deadwood in there too)...

I guess Trailer Park Boys is a UK show?

I'd add Cold Case to that list.

And maybe Las Vegas, if only for the chicks

Scrubs and all the mick take programmes (Dead Ringers, Bremner Bird & Fortune, Mock the Week, Have I got News...).

American Chopper
Catterick
Johnny Vegas - 18st idiot.

Ohh, and em.... Celebrity Love Island thingy, It's really not my cup of tea buy compared to Big Bruv it's a joy to watch, especially since the hot blonde stripper from American Pie 3 joined. Good on that little git who used to be in Hollyoaks! - now there's a guy batting above his average!.

American Chopper
Travel Sick - lots of repeats on but always raises a chuckle
Sin Cities - Good adult fun.
Have I got news for you - William Hague can actually be funny
Ramseys kitchen Nightmares - puts you off restaurant food for life
Eastenders - why do I keep watching it? Everyone calls me sad.
Pimp my Ride - with X to the Z
Dr Who
Stargate SG1
South Park
The Contender - great boxing reality show even though I'm against boxing as a sport.
Hitchhikers guide - that last episode on Tuesday is still as weird as I remember it from years ago
Top Gear - Jeremy clarkson makes it brilliant
Friday Night with Jonathon Ross - Great interviewing technique
Various repeats of Star Trek Next Gen and Voyager and am warming to Enterprise.

Catterick was cool.. I love anything with Vic and Bob in it...

Bring back shooting stars...

Erm not much else really... Dead Ringers is a favourite though... Although the new series isnt too funny... and My Family is a favourite too, they hardly ever show it anymore though...

I've only watched that show once, but his 'Ideal' series was awesome, like 20 times better than it looked on the adverts.

Last week some Z list celebrity hit him with a chair, like smashed it over his head during a drunken quarrel. Celebrity Lock-in could be it's own show!.

- Trailer Park Boys --- so funny and cheap
- Some HBO show we get here about a married guy who fantasizes about other women--- it's great but I forget the name (family man maybe?)
- Seinfeld
- The HBO show with Larry David--- I watch it all the time and I forgot its name too. My brain is fried this morning from over-work.
- MXC! The best gameshow that ever was and ever will be.
- Cold Case Files / American Justice
- The Apprentice when it's on--- but it's too commercial.

Jaaaaammmm... laughed my t*ts off at that show. Add in programs like Monkey dust, and Peep show for good stuff

Oh and currently really like, although opposite to what I normally like, is House. Top stuff. Although privately wish Hugh Laurie would use his 80's business man US voice instead (he used to do it years ago in his sketch show with Stephen Fry). Would be most funny. And did anyone catch the episode where he "pretends" to be English

Oh yeah, and I loved Trailer park boys, but I found that I prefered Reno 911 after I warmed up to it. Got under your skin after a while that one

Cheers

Nah, I thought Cold case was great. And also loved when they went back to the 70's or 80's. Weirdly I absolutely hate CSI. Don't know why, just winds me up for some reason...

I will die if my lodger watches one more episode of NCIS or JAG... grief....

How could I forget Garth Marenghi's Darkplace? Stephen King is a pussy basically. Heh, and you had to love that line that went something like "Hello, I am Garth Marenghi. Writer. Director. Actor. Dreamweaver. You may have met me in your darkest nightmares, in your most hellish dreams..... or perhaps a book signing in Dudley...". Be afraid...

Cheat with Kristen Holt? I hate that show just because of here, I loved it though when Cory hosted, at least he knew something about video games. And how could I forget Reno! Man I love that show.
