    What to watch

    I find myself in majority control of the TV for the first time in a long time and I was wondering what everyone is watching (the magic of DVR also helps me keep up). Right now, I'm enjoying:

    Walking Dead
    Hell on Wheels
    Supernatural
    American Horror Story
    Hawaii Five O
    Southland
    Paranormal Witness
    Justified
    All Ways Sunny...
    The League

    What other good shows are out there?

      The Walking Dead and Spartacus are my favorite shows right now. Another show that I have been watching, and I really don't know why, is Ink Master. For some reason I find that entertaining even though I am not a fan of "reality tv".

          Fringe is probably the best Sci-Fi show on TV. I'm enjoying Nikita on the WB. Didn't think that McG could come close to the original La Femme series from back in the 90's...but he has. Also, the Bones spinoff The Finder is pretty interesting...and Mercedes Masohn is HOT!!!

          And because of all their tears,
          Their eyes can't hope to see
          The beauty that surrounds them
          Isn't it a pity".

            I cut out the premiere channels in the fall, so I'm behind on Dexter and Boardwalk Empire and other shows on HBO and Showtime.

            Justified is probably my favorite show at the moment, and I've really enjoyed the River. Last fall, American Horror story was fun. Once Upon a Time is solid fun, too.

            Missed out on Alcatraz and will try to catch it with netflix when it makes it to DVD. Same with Fringe. I watched some of the first season, but will catch up on it at some point in the future.

                        The only shows I won't miss an episode of are:

                        Top Gear (although that's becoming a parody of itself)
                        Doctor Who
                        Game of Thrones
                        How I Met Your Mother
                        James May's Man Lab
                        Luther
                        Peep Show
                        Sherlock
                        Strike Back
                        The Walking Dead (because I WANT THEM ALL TO DIE).

                        Most of those shows have short seasons.

                        I'm probably missing plenty of great shows, but TV is generally background noise for me (TV card in my iMac), and most of the shows I watch come via bittorrent anyway (I can't stand being 6 months behind the rest of the world).

                        If I do ever watch "live" TV, it's on delay so I can skip the adverts.



                        Oh, and UFC. I need my senseless violence.

                          I like River Monsters and The Office and have just started watching Spartacus and Sons of Anarchy. On Mondays, I go to my Mom's for dinner and we watch Hoarders or whatever Real Housewives is on Bravo.

                              I've never seen Game of Thrones, but I saw something at Best Buy today saying Season One is coming out next month. I'll definitely check it out.
