If you mean 'Date TV' - where I make the effort......

Star Trek : Enterprise
Andromeda
The Simpsons


Then there's repeats of stuff like The X Files, The Lone Gunmen, any Star Trek I can find, MASH, Futurama, you get the idea! :)

Currently: Joey and Nip Tuck but I just discovered the new series of Charmed so that might be number three if I ever figure out what time it's on.

Desperate Housewives is soooo fab! Wednesday nights are generally fab, what with 10 Years Younger, and You Are What You Eat!

TiVo never really caught on in the UK, but after seeing SKY+, I think TiVo is loads better! It's a shame really that it never caught on here because it's massive in the US!

funkyukgal
07-03-2005, 14:02
what do you mean teeny bopper?

This series is the best one yet i think. Lana has a dark side to her and Lois kicks ass! Clark is just Clark lol Thats all im saying!

Dont get me started on DH!!!lol

Moonfire
07-03-2005, 16:12
I just don't think it is as good as the other seasons - It seems to be money shots and bands that I have never heard of doing background songs ;) - anyway, I think they are trying to wrap it up before the film comes out. Have you seen about the new Superman movie?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0348150/

and this is the guy that is playing Clark Kent

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0746125/

:omg: He's certainly no Tom Welling ;)

I try not to.

But I have a fatal weakness for F1, when it's on (actually, at the moment I just have a fatal weakness, due to getting up at 1.30am to watch the Australian Grand Prix on Saturday night).

And I try to catch every episode of Nathan Barley.

But to be honest, I'd feel my life would be much more fulfilled without a TV.

Moonfire
08-03-2005, 20:54
funkyukgal Here's a link to tell you all about it http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411008/

Did you mean to write "having" or did you mean "not having"?

I got rid of ours (hid it in the loft) and had one month of bliss, but wife & kids finally harassed me into getting it out again. We've had nothing but arguments & brain death in our house ever since. Oh, and a bit of F1 :)

I can’t believe no one has mentioned The West Wing..it’s the best program on TV ever – witty, clever and relevant, having you laughing one minute and crying the next!! It makes you wish that how governments were run… Mr Bush please take note!

09-03-2005, 05:54
I loved Brat Camp,Location,location,location.
I like Colin and Justin and anything to do with house makeovers
I also watch the BBC programme A child of our Time as I am interested in psychology.
That is only on once a year for the next 15 years(20 year experiment)
I like Wire in the Blood and my son(15),daugter(9) and myself all watch Coronation Street.
My husband hates ina nd sits in the other room reading his book in defiance!

Not forgetting i am a female... :hihi:

Corrie / Eastenders / My Family / Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / Drama's & Documentaries...

Sometimes... Holby & Casualty...

How could I have omitted Futurama - if we include 'old' TV as well then I have to chip in with things like The Avengers and The Prisoner.

And I was a happy bunny last night watching the first episode in the new series of Star Trek : Enterprise. Alien Nazis in Space! :)

Actually - it was quite good. The script writers are clearly having downer on their homeland right now....Series 2 ended with Florida zapped by an alien death ray and series 4 begins with the US invaded by alien assisted Germans in 1944.

Lost is excellent. :)
It takes 3 or 4 eps. to get going but it's well worth sticking with.
There are lots of characters. Each episode is usually dedicated to a particular character, and their background is explored/explained.

It's quite common to dislike a character at first, but end up liking them when their behaviour/background is explained.

I've seen the first 18 of 22 episodes.
It should be popping up on E4/C4 sometime in June.
