What are the shows you just cannot miss?
My Top 5 are:
Grey's Anatomy
Private Practice
Brother's & Sisters
Glee
The Mentalist
in no particular order.
Can't say there are any at the moment. In the past it was always 'Hill Street Blues' for me
I really do not have any cant miss shows but I enjoy Criminal Minds, House, Project Runway, and a few others.
My wife and I cannot miss
Ghost Hunters, or Ghost Hunters International
Bones
Fringe
Supernatural
or if there is a great scary movie on (not slasher) we will watch it.
This is a great question, and thank you for asking.

I can't live without:

I really wish I had started watching True Blood. We don't have that channel. We will probably be getting the dvds and watching as much of it as we can in one night with Death Dip, Hawaiian bread, popcorn, and random assortment of junk between us on the couch.
Great to see other Ghost Hunters fans here! That's the only show that I really never like to miss...

Lost ( best tv ever fact)
How I Met Your Mother
True Blood
Weeds
Arrested Development
Heroes ( until it got shit)
done.
Ever since Boston Legal went away and Tim Russert died, I haven't been able to find a can't-miss show. That's pretty much why I spend some of the time on the forums that I do. Of course, entertaining and time-killing as the forums may be, they just aren't Boston Legal or Tim Russert's Meet the Press. (Actually, I take back what I just said. I faithfully watch the Late Night talk/comedy shows (Letterman, mostly).
I don't really care if I miss these, but I do enjoy watching them if they happen to be on: "...Met your mother", Rules of Engagement, Two and a Half Men (although they're losing me these days), Big Bang and Criminal Minds. Without a Trace and the new Defenders isn't bad. "The Wives" (Desperate Housewives, but I hate that title) and Brother and Sisters are harmless and watchable. I lost where Law and Order SVU is, but I think it's a good show.
I think "Lie to Me" is pretty interesting. They've begun socializing it for a wider audience, but it's still a pretty clever cerebral (kind of Holmes-ian) show. Pretty politically neutral with exceptional acting. Hope it helps.
you know i actually stopped watching much tv at nite.
i dont really miss it.
but i really liked 30 rock.

I just realized I should probably cancel my cable TV subscription, because I can get 3 out of the 4 shows I watch for free "over the air" and the other one gets posted online a week after its on TV, or sooner if I want to download it from "unsanctioned" sources. Everything else I watch is either junk or I could get from Netflix.
Doctor Who.
With this new station "Hub" (What a great name, no?) They have the Adam West Batman show late night. So yeah. That's pretty much it.
I love Hub! Any channel that shows "The Wonder Years" is a-okay with me :0)
I watch a lot of TV, but I can't miss:
Modern Family
Top Chef
Whatever is on HBO Sunday Nights (Big Love, Treme, Entourage, Boardwalk Empire, etc)
...and of course The Bachelor when I'm writing about it.
Smallville (I'm sooooo going to miss it when it's gone!)
The Vampire Diaries
That's pretty much all I watch religiously haha
I have to see Qi, Monty Pyhton's Flying Circus, Fawlty Towers, Jonathon Creek, and Scrapheap Challenge. Oh..and the cricket - the real stuff, not that twenty20 nonsense.
I wish I had more time to have a can't miss show. I used to have them and I miss them so. The only show I do find time to watch and it always makes me laugh is Tosh.O!

What TV shows do your children watch that you can't stand? Which have grown on you?We all fear the day that you catch yourself humming the theme song to Dora the Explorer or (God forbid) Shake it Up. Which shows just tear you up inside and which do you enjoy with your child? While I was a nanny,...

Does anyone remember the movies 'Loose Screws' or 'Summer Job'? I used to sneak downstairs at night when my mom was asleep and watch these movies as a kid during the 80s. By today's standards they are probably tamed, cheesy and stupid. But those movies were my doorway to manhood!I also remember the...

Have you noticed that this year how often the television shows will show several new episodes...then go into repeat mode for several episodes and rewind and continue this trend?I hate this in TV programming. This is going on with all major networks such ABC,CBS and NBC. I have begun to watch more...

Just a fun post for everyone. I'd like to know your favourite tv series and why, that's all I'm personally torn between The Walking Dead and Prison Break, although I think PB takes the spot but only just. Would love to know everyone elses opinion!

I usually watch tv or read.

As a survivor of sexual assualt, I am an adovacte for the fair treatment of survivors of abuse, rape and domestic violence. Because of this, I am passionate about pulling the show Law and Order SVU off of the air. It is too graphic, too gruesome and far too detailed. It triggers those with PTSD and...
