And this summer I got hooked on Mad Men so right now my 3 must watch shows are Mad Men, Glee, and 30 Rock

You're watching these for the first time?

Yes and No. It's a new season and like NBC says "If you haven't seen it, it's new to you."

I've heard good things about the Son's of Anarchy but not sure I have time to squeeze that one in.

Any other suggestions?

SOA is good. You need to watch season one to know what the heck is going on. It is very much a serial type show with a lot of back story they have built. Maybe the best acted show on TV.

While it's not new I'm really getting hooked on Parks and Recreation. I thought the first season was a little blah but it seems to be hitting it's stride now.

My wife and I have tried out the ABC Wednesday sitcoms. Hank typecasts Kelsey Grammer into essentially the same role he's had in every sitcom he's been in but he's a go-getting former CEO instead of a psychologist. The Middle is pretty much "Malcolm in the Middle" from the viewpoint of the Mom, and Patricia Heaton isn't that funny and no other character can help her carry the show.

Modern Family is good, Ed O'Neill has a bit of Al Bundy in him mixed with the Dad from My Three Sons, although his daughter's husband is annoying as all get out (Think of a cross between Michael Scott and Andy Bernard). Cougar Town is probably the best of those 4 shows, but I can see it getting stale real fast. Christa Miller looks like she's had too much plastic surgery, and the blonde is quite annoying.

We both found Community to be painful. Watched 2 episodes before giving up.

We did get into Top Chef since the Voltaggio Brothers are from Frederick, and like the show.

History Channel had a 6 hour special yesterday: The Foods that Built America.

I watched the whole thing in one day. Love history stuff like that. I could live off of just sports and history shows if needed.

Is anyone else watching Bored To Death on HBO? I freaking LOVE this show! Jason Schwartzman is really funny but Ted Danson and Zach Galifanakis make the show seriously great. I highly recommend it (no pun intended).

I spend 12 hours a week watching the Redskins on loop. They're not threatening the Neilsen ratings anytime soon, but you just never know how things are going to turn out. Until about the fourth time around, that is.

tryfuhl · 10-17-2009, 01:27 AM

sons of anarchy isn't too bad, but like every other show that isn't sports, I don't watch it regularly

KLHJ2 · 10-30-2009, 07:22 PM

Nothing like some good ol South Park. Firstdown, Sadden, and TTE should like this one.

None of these are new for me but I'm still watching all the new episodes: Sons of Anarchy, South Park, and Family Guy. All my other regulars are NBA, NHL, and college football on Saturdays if I ain't busy.

Shows:
Community. I actually really enjoy this show. It has some great parts though it can be slow at times. The Halloween episode was great.
Always Sunny. I champion this show a lot, but I love it. Not a single likable character, that's why I love it.
The Office. Still good, not as good as early seasons, but still good.

I watched part of an episode of Glee and didn't understand the hype. Maybe I should give it another shot.

itvnetop · 10-30-2009, 10:13 PM

Community, Modern Family, It's Always Sunny, Parks & Rec, Office, Nip/Tuck, Sons of Anarchy, Mad Men, Friday Night Lights (DirecTV), The League (fantasy football!), Dexter and Californication. I love Fall!
