What are your favourite TV shows? Mine would be probrably Fawlty Towers, Father Ted and the Simpsons (earlier episodes, it's kind of crap these last few years). Think Fawlty Towers is hillarious. What's good about it too is they only made 12 episodes or something. Most shows go on too long. I like comedies and think they are three of the best.

Fawlty Tower was excellent.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea (definitely not for the easily offended), but right now I can't get enough of South Park. The episodes are usually pretty topical, and nobody does a parody like South Park, they really don't care who they offend. They ripped Kanye West and his massive ego so much this week I couldn't stop laughing. Their episode on the economy the other week was pretty funny too.

I watched Ross Kemp in Afghanistan and found it pretty interesting. He got into some pretty intense situations, and it increased my respect for the bravery of the armed forces even more, if that was possible.

lol! Is that still going!? Have'nt seen it in years.


Closer to home Podge and Rodge use to be good when they tore to shreds z list celebrities. It's gone a bit flat though in recent years. Still it's a bit of a laugh.

Anyone been watching the Wire?

I have'nt anyway - any good?

No other drama comes close. It has more depth than many a good novel. Takes a while though to tune your ears to the West Baltimore slang, but well worth it.

Sex and the City
The West Wing
Absolutely Fabulous
Spooks
Messiah
Silent Witness
Rome
Doctor Who
Battlestar Galactica
Star Trek (except DS9)
Ugly Betty
Will and Grace
Friends

^^ Appart from Doctor Who and Sex in the City - never got into that - yeah id go along with that list aswell. Not my favourites but watchable. I know every line of Friends inside out at this stage so I don't watch that anymore.

Will check it out PB ;)

Sex and the City was excellent early on, but I got bored with it. Never bothered seeing the movie. Haven't heard of most of your list. Messiah? Rome? What are they about?

The West Wing must be one of the all time greats ok. Friends became much more annoying than SATC.

I generally think though that British drama is rubbish compared to the American stuff. Cracker being an exception.

Really?

I don't like it- it's too twee etc. There's sometimes a good episode, but even when they cover modern things they mess it up a bit by making it all 'too perfect'; all for show and the TV as you would expect I suppose.

Television died when the Professionals ended.... :(

Best show ever:

lol!

My would be Top Gear, Father Ted and American Dad

Shows i've been watching loads recently:

The Thick Of It- an absolutely tremendous show, worthy of all it's recent Bafta awards. And the film, In The Loop, is awesome too.
House
Doctor Who- the new series has been the best in a long, long time.
South Park- still hilarious after 14 series, and easily the best animated sitcom on tv.
Blackadder
Arrested Development- a great American comedy sadly cancelled after 3 series
Total Wipeout- hilarious. Chair in the air?
Come Dine With Me.

Lately I have been watching reruns of Top Gear now that The Cleveland Show is finished. Other than that it's Dr Who and Richard Hammond Engineering Connections.

I wasn't sure to start off with. The new theme annoyed me and various other things. However I have been enjoying it and the new theme has also grown on me.

I am enjoying it, but I cant bring myself to like the new theme. It doesn't have the power and soul the old one did.

^^

Oh I don't like it as much as the previous, but have grown on me, as has the logo, esp as it spins and turns into the box.

Cannot STAND the new sidekick or whatever she is....cringeworthy voice

Nah, I don't like the new Dr Who.

An actor should at least be out of nappies before he plays the part :)

I like her!

I like her!

boo! :down:

I like her!

Agree- I much prefer her to the companions in the previous post-2005 series.

After watching the latest episode at the weekend, it has just backed up my thoughts that this is the best series in a while- even the presence of James Corden didn't ruin the episode! In more serious terms, this series just feels less OTT and soap opera-ish than the last few. And Matt Smith really is an excellent actor.
