Older shows....
The vicar of dibley (BBC again....very quirky and light hearted fun)
...
According to Jim (painful at times but moments of gold)
That 70's Show (see above)
*nods*
Agreed about Vicar. As for Jim ... why painful at times? (Just curious...)
OK ... of the shows I listed before, I usually only talk about "Friday Night Lights" with others during the week ... and it is usually just about what happened the Friday night prior ... and what might happen.
A few shows that I also watch that I didn't list originally are ABC's "Desperate Housewives", ABC's "Brothers and Sisters", ABC's "Boston Legal" and CBS's "Cold Case"....
As for why I watch....
ABC's "Pushing Daisies":
It's just quirky and works. I originally wanted to watch it because it was good to see Swoozie Kurtz back on TV, along with Chi McBride (principle on FOX's "Boston Public"). But, I watched the first 2 episodes and was hooked....
ABC's "Samantha Who?":
Jean Smart. She's been on CBS' "Designing Women" and, more recently, FOX's "24".
ABC's "Desperate Housewives":
Cool to see Felicity Huffman (ABC's "SportsNight") and Teri Hatcher (ABC's "Lois and Clark") in different roles. As for the storylines...well, might be a "guilty pleasure"...?
ABC's "Brothers and Sisters":
Interesting to see Calista Flockhart (FOX's "Ally McBeal") back on TV ... and with an interesting mix of cast members, including Sally Field (remember "Smokey and the Bandit"?) and Rob Lowe.
ABC's "Boston Legal":
I usually only watch the ending of this one with the 2 lawyers (portrayed by James Spader and William Shatner) talking in the evening. But, it's interesting to also see Candice Bergen (CBS's "Murphy Brown"), John Larroquette (NBC's "Night Court"), and others (i.e. guests Betty White, NBC's "Golden Girls", and Michael J Fox, NBC's "Family Ties" and ABC's "Spin City") in this one.
CBS's "NUMB3RS":
Simply an awesome cast around an awesome show format/plotline, especially solving crimes with math! Judd Hirsch and Peter MacNicol (formerly with FOX's "Ally McBeal" and, more recently, FOX's "24" ... during which time he was on a space shuttle mission on CBS's "NUMB3RS") are in this, too.
CBS's "Cold Case":
I just like seeing the flashbacks...and how the crimes are eventually solved....
FOX's "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?":
Shocking to find out what I remember...and, moreso, what I don't.
FOX's "Don't Forget The Lyrics!":
The music ... plain and simple.
NBC's "Friday Night Lights":
Awesome cast. Love the theme music, too ... and, of course, the older cars!
Hmmm...BTW...anyone else watch ABC's "Eli Stone" tonight after "LOST"? Looks to be an interesting show, imho. I thought I recognized a couple of the ladies in it ... Natasha Henstridge (ABC's "Commander In Chief") and Loretta Devine (FOX's "Boston Public")....
