Your Ten Favorite Shows Currently on Television

I've tried a couple times but can never get more than 5 minutes or so in. idk. I realize that nearly everyone else I know does and that this is probably my issue but I just don't like it. :/

I like s1 and part of s2 Community, but the "cleverer" it gets the more indufferable I find it.

er insufferable.

E, I definitely felt that way about the pilot so I understand the reaction; I just really liked the original paintball episode and the show basically stuck with me from that point on, and with extra investment in the characters the first season becomes really great (including the pilot, which I now can't believe I hated). I will also admit that I kind of forced myself to get into the show because I really wanted Yvette Nicole Brown to be on hit and that I'm even more interested in following the show now because I found out Joel McHale is high school buddies with a singing friend of mine from college who recently went viral in a video of a speech he gave to WA state representatives explaining why, as a Christian, he felt morally obligated to vote in favor of legalizing gay marriage.

but I do also think the show is funny, I mean the zombie episode was classic

i was hooked from Chang and Jeff's class presentation.

sorry, Pierce and Jeff in Chang's class

How do you people have enough time to watch ten or more shows on a regular basis?

(Joel McHale is actually making an appearance at one of my friend's campaign events, which I think is massively cool)

xp: no kids

(he posted to ILX) xp

How do you people have enough time to watch ten or more shows on a regular basis?

DVR helps

in no order, and if any of these hits a certain point of suckitude I will drop it in a heartbeat

30 Rock
Bachelor Pad
The Glee Project
Community
Happy Endings
Suburgatory
Unsung
Don't Trust The B In Apartment 23
Breaking Bad (though I'm only like 1/3 of the way in to Season 1 on Netflix)
Justified (though I've only seen the first two seasons on DVD)

only show I know I watch that I left off is The Soup, which I still watch for the clips even though the jokes in between feel lazier every week

hahaha here's hoping Bachelor Pad can keep up its current standard of quality

i was just thinking I should have said certain point of boringness or something like that

that show is amazing though

oh it looks amazing, if I was more invested in the Bachelor franchise that would totally be my shit

Breaking Bad
Bobs Burgers
Venture Bros
Louie
Parks and Rec
The League
Eric Andre Show
Childrens Hospital
Luther (assuming this is still rolling on)
American Horror Story

wait Peep Show has more coming right? that should be in there somewhere

I feel like I watch a lot of television, and I could easily name 10 shows that I really like, but at any given time of the year I can watch as little as 90 minutes a week to as much as maybe 6 hours a week, and three of hours will probably be on Sunday night. It seems like a lot of time commitment, but it's really not that much when half the shows are only 30 minute sitcoms and with DVR you can kind of squeeze those in whenever.

At the moment I watch 3 and a half hours, though maybe it's more accurate to say 2 and a half since the hour I spend with the Newsroom usually involves me gasping, agog, into some black hole of bizarre awfulness.

just started watching Damages on Netflix streaming and if that is still a going concern and it doesnt shit itself up after the first season, that would be a worthy nom too

oh yeah i just finished season one of that, probably didn't include it just because the guest stars this upcoming season are Jenna Elfman and Ryan Phillippe...ooooh

Dharma and teen Valmont, together at last

Oh I like Breaking Bad too.

Ryan Phillipe has an amazingly hot voice.

trying to think what my actual faves right now are, probably:

Doctor Who
Game of Thrones
Community
30 Rock
Parks & Rec
American Dad
Young Justice
Don't Trust the B**** in Apt 23
New Girl
Happy Endings

honorable mention to Bleach, Deadman Wonderland, Eric Andre Show, Big Bang Theory, Suburgator, Modern Family, The Middle, Grimm, Venture Brothers, Up All Night, Law & Order: SVU, Family Guy, South Park

this seems as good a place as any to note that in the first episode of Bachelor Pad, a woman told her partner (who then went off and made out with another woman) that if they lost the first competition (which was to keep themselves inside a heart-shaped box as it was slowly turned 90 degrees), she would "donkey punch him in the neck."

i keep meaning to try damages

it's easy to watch 10 or even 30 shows when they're 15 minute adult swim eps

Justified (though I've only seen the first two seasons on DVD)

You're in for a treat, s3 rules and is the best season yet imo (seems to be a minority opinion tho)

damages s1 is pretty solid, but s2 was such a snoozefest that I never really tuned back in

Zero love for SHARK TANK itt, that is a great show

what i've seen i've enjoyed but i never remember to watch it

if you like adventure time, i find regular show to be a much smarter version of same with more, like, teenage motivations

regular show is ok, but imho these aren't in the same league

yup.

see i agree with you, but inversely. I tried adventure time for about three eps and then never went back.

that's almost exactly how many episodes of regular show I watched and yet I have watched almost every episode of adventure time.

the scene in the last ep where SPOILERS they blast off from earth and we see what the post-apocolyptic adventure time earth looks like (w/ a huge crater in the side) and then interface with the super god abraham lincoln who trades his immortality for jake's life and turns into the lincoln memorial /SPOILERS was a new kind of high point for the show.

i've watched every episode of regular show!
different strokes

I think both shows are great
