Whatcha watchin?

tracilicious · 03-16-2009, 12:50 AM

After years without much TV watching at all, I find I now have a whole lineup of show's that I really want to watch each week. Including the stuff that's on reruns right now, these are the shows I love:

Demetri Martin - this guy is funny!

True Blood

Weeds

U.S. of Tara - slow start, but it's gotten good

Flight of the Conchords

The Office

Scrubs

So, what are you guys watching? Am I missing anything fantastic?

At the moment? The Comedy Central Roast of Larry the Cable Guy

LSPoorEeyorick · 03-16-2009, 07:08 AM

Good list, T, but you're missing 30 Rock!

Moonliner · 03-16-2009, 07:25 AM

30 Rock.

Been there done that, over it. Is anyone else as sick of Tracy Jordan as I am?

I watched that last night. I do not care for LtCG, but I liked seeing him skewered.

Why was Maureen "Marsha Brady" McCormick on that show? What's her relationship to him?

I have never liked Tracy Jordan. I didn't like him on SNL and I don't like him on 30 Rock. I like 30 Rock, just not him. I think he's an annoying buffoon and wish he would just go away. And can someone please tell him the word is "ask", not "aks"....

I'm currently watching:

Kyle XY (though I think tonight is the series finale)
Heroes (no, it's not been good as of late, but I'm still holding out hope)
Reaper (delightfully shocked it got a second season)
Lost (luh-huh-huhving this show!)
Jeopardy
South Park
Important Things
The Office
30 Rock (see above)
e.r. (also on final episodes)
Battlestar Galactica (jeebus that's a great show, I'm gonna miss it)
Dollhouse (agreed, it's had a slow start, but I trust Joss)
The Simpsons (yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever, I still like it)
King of the Hill (final season)
Family Guy
American Dad
What's My Line? (reruns of the original 50s/60s show on GSN)
Comedy Central Presents (half-hour stand-up specials)

Here are some shows I'm waiting to come back on:

Eureka (has it been renewed?)
My Life on the D List (come on, I'm her key demographic)
Sanctuary (not stellar, but I love Amanda Tapping and the guy is a cutie)
Dexter
Penn & Teller: Bullsh¡t

Agreed on the sentiment. We thought it was gone and recently caught its re-appearance.

It looks like it is, but I am not certain. The Sci-Fi Channel schedule for March 24 has the show back on, but I do not know if those episodes have been previously shown. I read somewhere that new episodes would be starting on May 8, but I cannot find anything to corroborate.

Eh, I called the Sharks winning the Cup about 1/4 way through the season and have accepted (in January) that if we make the playoffs we're not going beyond the first round. I'm just thinking of all the money I'm saving by not buying playoff tickets...

I agree that Demetri Martin is funny, I just haven't yet seen him be particularly funny on his new show.

I'm working through The Office, Quincy, Columbo, and Perry Mason via that magic of Netflix. For new TV The Amazing Race, Heroes, The Daily Show, The Soup and Craig Ferguson's pre-guest segments are the shows that I try to watch live or shortly after they air.

Giving Dollhouse a chance but am not particularly whelmed yet.

DVR picks up new episodes of various Law & Orders and I eventually watch them.

Morrigoon · 03-16-2009, 07:47 AM

We're starting to get caught up on House

Ghoulish Delight · 03-16-2009, 08:02 AM

Agreed on Demitri Martin. The show's really mediocre. Although the most recent episode, Safety, was the best yet, so I'm still giving it a chance to improve.

No, not sick of Tracy Morgan, and most definitely not sick of Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin.
