1. Well, it looks like we're going to be stuck with 'reality' shows for a

mighty long time. :-(

[DainBramaged]

2. I watch five shows now

Big Bang Theory (and even have the first two seasons on disc and watch them repeatedly)

NCIS (have all previous seasons too)

Discovery Channel, Mythbusters, Deadliest Catch, and sometimes Dirty Jobs.


Everything else just sucks now. Even my once beloved CSI/CSI Miami

[madinmaryland]

3. Wow! I haven't seen a single one of those shows!

What a sorry state broadcast television is with their "entertainment" stuff.

[Bennyboy]

4. 108...the best show on (network) TV.....

Friday Night Lights. canned too.

I watch a lot of the shows in the top 25. NCIS (I love Cote De Pablo)and Criminal Minds is interesting in a weird way (I always wonder about what goes through people's minds when they commit horrific crimes)

And Desperate Housewives, well I love that show. Funny and soapy all at the same time.

I watch the reality shows too, Big Brother (thanks Evil Dick for that!), Amazing Race and Survivor.

And The Mentalist is kind of cool. (but I like Psych better) The Good Wife is okay too....

5. Fox has been #1 in Primetime tv for at least the last 2 years...

Idol always beats everyone, but that may change next year without Simon Cowell. The majority of Fox shows are not reality shows and are very good.

Glee
House
Bones
Fringe
Lie to Me

All good shows.

[Bennyboy]

6. Glee is great too... So is House....

God I watch way too much TV....

[Kat45]

7. Too much reality crap ranking highly.

But I am glad to see that my two favorite network shows, The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men, are ranked highly. I don't watch all that much TV, but those are 2 shows I don't miss.
