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

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)

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

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."

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)
― Simon H., Thursday, 26 July 2012 19:22 (eleven years ago) link
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
― da croupier, Thursday, 26 July 2012 21:35 (eleven years ago) link
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
― Mordy, Thursday, 26 July 2012 21:38 (eleven years ago) link
yup.
― pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Thursday, 26 July 2012 21:43 (eleven years ago) link
see i agree with you, but inversely. I tried adventure time for about three eps and then never went back.
― I dont even know that I think this sucks per se (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 July 2012 21:53 (eleven years ago) link
that's almost exactly how many episodes of regular show I watched and yet I have watched almost every episode of adventure time.
― pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Thursday, 26 July 2012 21:54 (eleven years ago) link
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.
― Mordy, Thursday, 26 July 2012 22:00 (eleven years ago) link
i've watched every episode of regular show! different strokes
