OT: TV Shows

We've done this before and it went over really well with people discussing their favorite shows. It's been months though and the thread is long dead and buried.

So let's do it again.

List your favorite shows and then talk about the ones you are super obsessed with at the moment (shows that are currently airing).

I'll start:

Favorites -

My Big Redneck Vacation
The Voice
Dance Moms
Farm Kings
Project Runway
Auction Kings
Fast & Loud
Trip Flip
Cupcake Wars
Toy Hunter
Tanked
American Restoration
Counting Cars
Pawn Stars
Myth busters
So You Think You Can Dance
Master Chef
Hurricane Hunters



I really like this idea. I am someone who only comes to these boards occasionally with a question, or if I'm killing time , waiting for stuff to finish "cooking" in my town. But this topic enticed me.

Many of the programs that I watch are are fiction, which is my preference. Here is a sampling:

Game of Thrones
Breaking Bad
Mad Men
The Walking Dead
Nurse Jackie
Newsroom
Boardwalk Empire

30 Rock (series over now :( )
Community (first three seasons only..... Thrilled that the original writer is coming back)
The Big Bang Theory (my 14 year old daughter and I love to watch this together, and I'm a science fan)
The Soup (this is as close as I get to most reality shows, which is obviously not very)

Old series that I loved:
The Wire (greatest drama ever written for television, Imo)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The Dollhouse. (yes, fan of Joss Whedon. Looking forward to seeing his Much Ado)

Animated and weird animated:
Simpsons
Family Guy
King of the Hill
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Squidbillies

I can't think of others right now. Those are my favorites.

Your list is missing Duck Dynasty. One of my favourites. :) I don't watch a lot of reality tv but I find the Robertsons highly entertaining. Ghost Hunters is another one I really like.

Game of Thrones and Dexter are probably my two favourite shows but their seasons are so short I spend most of the year counting down to when they come back. LOL

And yes, Danny from Counting Cars is pretty cool. I'd love to go one one of his drives when he stalks cool cars.

Thanks for the invite/offer. Perhaps I will, though honestly I don't always have too much to add.

As for Game of Thrones, I began reading the series fifteen ??? years ago. I loved the novels, though the last one was extremely disappointing. What does your husband think?

The funny thing about watching Seinfeld now is to watch it and figure out how long it would take to solve the whole plot line problem if they had cell phones. lol
