What are your favorite tv shows? - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Okay - give me your top FIVE (5) tv shows! Not 10, not 20, not 6, only 5.

A couple of my favorites are ending this year... so I'm looking for interesting stuff to watch again. I'm not huge on tv, but it's nice to have an hour or two to look forward to every week, ya know?

My faves:

Sex & the City (last season coming up)
Six Feet Under
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (in its last season)
The Sopranos (last season coming up)
Will & Grace

As you can see... only two shows will remain after next season... and Six Feet Under has short seasons cause it's an HBO show.

Ummm, I'd love to join in, but I don't watch TV.

(although we DO have two of them... the kids watch it, but DH and I can't stand it)
I could tell you what five BOOKS I'm reading right now!

I think I accidentally watched half of Will and Grace once. And Survivor.
I can see how addictive it can be... when we're at my MIL's house, the TV is usually on fulltime, and I can't take my EYES off it!! It draws me. It's like candy.

1. Oprah
2. Birds of Prey
3. Dead Zone
4. Outer Limits

Well, I do watch tv although it usually drives me nuts. Shows I watch regularly are:

1) NYPD Blue
2) Law & Order (any of the three... but especially the Sunday one)
3) The Practice... although they switched nights and now I keep missing it
4) Fear Factor
5)Survivor

Ok... and since I refuse to follow most rules, here are a few more...

6) Oprah
7)Seinfeld reruns
8) Simpsons
9) King of the Hill
10) ER
11) Star Trek reruns
12) Will & Grace
13) Conan O'Brian

And I admit that I like to watch American Idol.

I've never had cable, but when I am at my mom's I watch Trading Spaces, the Home & Garden Network, and Sex and the City. Ok, I'll quit now.

I also don't really watch television. I've been watching a half-hour of Oprah on my break at work, but that will change since I'm moving offices on Monday and there are no TV's where I'm going.

I do like some shows, but I just can't be asked to find out when they are on and then actually watch them. TV is such an energy drainer for me.

Suzanne 3FC · 03-07-2003, 07:06 AM

1. Coupling (bbc-america)
2. Conan O'Brian
3. Six Feet Under
4. Door Knock Dinners (foodtv)
5. Leave it to Beaver

I prefer to read but have watched Masterpiece Theatre a few times. I did watch Bush's press conference last night. Harry watches every damned sporting event and I get really sick of TV. Before dinner we tune into Galaxie - just music, no picture. Hmmm - like radio!

OI812 · 03-07-2003, 08:01 AM

Here is my list...

1) CSI:Miami
2) Third Watch
3) The Sopranos
4) CSI
5) Oprah

OI812 · 03-07-2003, 08:03 AM

Since I can't make a list of 10 shows....I'll do two posts of 5 shows! LOL

1) Dr. Phil
2) Judge Judy
3) Trading Spaces
4) Everybody Loves Raymond
5)Investigative Reports

squeaker · 03-07-2003, 08:06 AM

Um, here are my 5 (kind of)
1. Law & Order (but I like all 3 kinds - does that count as 1 show or 3?)
2. Ed
3. Gilmore Girls
4. West Wing
5. Charmed - yes I know it's an awful show, but for some reason I like it.

blackbird · 03-07-2003, 08:08 AM

I don't watch a lot of T.V. either, cable is too expensive...and addictive and just plain stupid most of the time.. I'll give you my top 5 of all time.

1)The X-Files
2)Kung Fu Theatre
3)HeadBangers Ball
4)I Love Lucy
5)Malcom in the Middle.

Here's a true confession though....
I did watch most of Joe Millonare, but I don't really think it was me watching...I think someone from the spirit world inhabited my body (every Monday night) and forced me to watch.
blessings,
blackbird

Rockette · 03-07-2003, 08:42 AM

Oh man, we don't get Headbanger's Ball anymore over here! *weeps*

mauvaisroux · 03-07-2003, 09:11 AM

My top 5

CSI
NYPD Blue
Buffy
Angel
British crime shows (way too many to mention - I am adicted to all of them

)
