I also enjoy Lost and 24, though I haven't seen them in a while. I missed a bunch of episodes of each, so I won't continue watching until I'm caught up.

[Juissi]

Lost
Simpsons
Friends
My name is Earl
South Park

Too lazy to describe but My name is Earl is good show

[Celeglin]

I don't actually watch TV very much anymore. But when I do, the only series I watch are Family Guy, the Simpsons, and Friends reruns.

[Mathijs]

South Park, Simpsons, Las Vegas, The 4400, and of course...

A Touch of Frost, the greatest English detective series of all times.

[zimoo]

Pretty much only Futurama and Scrubs. I would still watch Simpsons/Friends, but they get boring after you've seen each episode a few times.

[Juissi]

Well buy all 10 seasons, watch them like 5 times and then tell if you feel like watching them that is what I did and they are still funny

[ched]

currently watching :
Prison Break S2
Desperate Housewives (here and then, depending on which episodes my friend are watching )

Watched :
-Friends (have all 10 seasons)
-Simpsons (here and then)
-Prison Break S1
-24 S1 to 3 (was getting too repetitive so I stopped, but amazing nonetheless)

Lost I gotta watch, but I don't have to see anything else.... my TV hardly goes on anymore

Stargate SG-1: A group of explorers from Earth travel through an alien device known as the "Stargate" to other planets, where they fight evil Aliens

Stargate Atlantis: Spin off of SG-1, a detachment of explorers and scientists from Earth travel to the distant Pegasus Galaxy to the lost city of Atlantis, where they come into contact with a species known as the "wraith"; life sucking aliens!

Avatar, The last Airbender: Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Long ago, the four nations lived to together in harmony. But that all changed when the fire nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years have past, and the Avatar has been found, as a 12 year old boy, the last of the air nomads...

24: Enough has been said already

Fresh Prince: An old 80's Sitcom about an inner city guy (Will Smith) who gets sent to live with his filthy rich uncle in Bel-Air.

Full House: Another 80's Sitcom about a man with three daughters and two friends who try to help him get along with daily life.

Growing Pains: Yet another 80's-90's Sitcom about a family... Don't know how else to describe it.

[Lauri]

ah... with series that's on the telly every day (ca) I tend to forget it's even series!

I love the last 3 there

[Nertea]

Canucks hockey....?

Frost is great, why has nobody mentioned spongebob?

[JEV3]

Well, I haven't heard of many of the series here... and me and my family aren't really permitted to watch most of the tv shows out there. I know my mom is a fan of LOST, but as for me, the one modern tv series we're allowed watching is:

JERICHO:

After nuclear missles strike several areas, the people of Jericho must fight for survival.
Cast includes:

Jake, a young man who ran away from home who was passing through his home town and has to face his past when the nuclear crisis occurs. Eric, Jake's brother, he had to make up for his brother's abscence. To make matters worse, he has fallen in love with the bartender despite the fact he already has a wife. Whats-her-name with the blonde hair, has an old grudge and love for Jake. Her father is a leader of a gang, and her fiancee is considered to be dead. John (correct me if I'm wrong) Hawkins, arrived with his family in Jericho the day before the disaster. He always seems to be prepared and has little time for family life. Whether he has anything to do with the bombs has not yet been revealed. Mayor Green (again, correct me if I'm wrong) the father of Jake and Eric, has to lead the town in the crisis, face his opponent, and hovers dangerously near death when he gets the flu.

Events that happened in the first season:

When the rain takes care of the radiation it threatens to pour it down on Jericho... A gang from outside Jericho gives them trouble... To save Mayor Green's life, Jake and Eric must go to another city to get medicine while Mr. Gray performs an investigation of the Hawkin's household... Food and supplies are paradropped from China and cause some arguments... The girl (still don't know her name) if forced to cover for her father when he is accused of killing the person at the supermarket...

Maybe a little bit more information than necessary, but that about sums up the story.

Holy crap Nertea, how did I forget good o'l Sponge Bob???

Sponge Bob Square Pants: An utterly hilarious story about a yellow sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea. He works at a fast food resturaunt known as the "Crusty Krab" making "Krabby Patties". His boss, Mr. Krabs, is utterly obsessed with money, and his co-worker, Squidward, wants nothing more than for Spongebob to move far, far away. Songebob's best friends are Patrick the Starfish and Sandy the Land Squirrel. Sandy's hobby is Karate and underwater Treedome maintenance and Patric's hobby is being an idiot. Together, they break alot of things.

The funniest show Nickelodeon has ever come up with

[Bart]

I have to add Heroes to this list

[Mathijs]

That, and The Office US.

Bloody brilliant.

[Clement]

Simpsons, Seinfeld, and CSI re-runs are good too. Does NFL Network or Sportscenter count? j/k
