There are only a few shows that I watch every time a new episode airs. The only ones that come to mind right off are Heroes and Life.

I'm pretty sure Heroes will be back for the second half of it's second season and will be on for a third, if and when the strike ever ends.

I'm already preparing myself for the cancellation of Life. I'm pretty sure it won't make it. Not because it isn't good but because it IS good.

I am also a huge fan of Futurama, of which they are now making NEW episodes to be aired in 2008 on the cartoon channel. YIPPEE!!!!!!

I hope Chuck makes it to a second season. Then maybe I can start watching it

Pushing Daisies I can't believe i for got about it i LOVE that show its got a burttonesque quality to it

and for the record Jake 2.0 was the first attempt to revive the bionic franchise (which is why lee majors was in an episode)

The History Detectives, Babylon5, Dr Who, Simply Ming, America's test Kitchen, 60 Minutes.

No cable, no time during the week, so if it isn't on broadcast in DFW on the weekend or available online, I don't get to see it. And my site for B5 went down just recently, ugh.

i agree w you about ninja warior net but i personally think that borders on being a sport

i meant  sport in the traditional sense in that its a test of ones phsical abilites for the honor of saying your the best (as far as i know you get nothing for wining)

My favorite shows would be : Cops, Family Guy, Simpsons, History Detectives, the old show FBI Files, House, and COLLEGE football. I never have time to watch most of these, but this is viewing fare when I can watch the boob tube.

Actually, there is a roughly $20,000 award for the winner.

And since no one said, "Favorite TV show that didn't show sports..." 

Net Wolf

well that makes a bit more sence

Meh. Our local TV-shows have a trait in common: they suck. Which is probably understandable, production houses here produce for a maximum public of roughly 6 million people, so they work on small budgets.
So my favourite tv-shows would be... Imported.

I like CSI's. I liked Heroes too, but season 2 is not airing here yet. That latest (=well, over here anyway) Star Trek series was nice... Although I missed half the episodes. Stargate SG1, yeah, not a real follower of the series, but if I happen to come across an episode on a lazy day, I do watch.
24. Definitely.

In the cartoon section: Futurama, Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy.
"Avatar: The last airbender" is a great one among the more recently started series.

That said, I can't help but feel frustrated about the channels here. Even if they start airing a good series at one time or another, they stop after one season or half a season. And then the reruns start. While across the Atlantic, new episodes are released.
I'd even go as far as putting the following estimate on it: on any given day, power on the TV at any given time, and the first thing you will see is commercials or anything similar designed to make you spend money (39% chance), a rerun of good shows (20% chance), a rerun of awful shows (10% chance), some reality-TV nonsense (Big Brother, The Bus, The Block, Mamaswitch, something about islands, Peking express, Childbirth, the airport, ... = 30% chance).

So if I want to watch TV, and that doesn't happen very often, then I mostly watch Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network.
