Oh yeah forgot about Grey's Anatomy. I have seen one show, the one after the Super Bowl a few years ago with Christina Ricci and a grenade. Other than that, no desire to watch it at all.

At his seminar at Wesleyan University two weeks ago, Joss was asked specifically about what he thought of Heroes and the Sopranos. He'd never seen either one. He did mention he liked Battlestar Gallactica, though.

I love Grey's Anatomy. The Christina Ricci episode was a classic. So tense! In general, the show has flawed characters, comedy, human drama, and 'will they won't they get together' main characters all rolled into one. Not unlike Firefly.

Veronica Mars is another cool show too. Not just for the Joss Whedon, Charisma Carpenter or Alysson Hannigan appearances.

Here's my list:

* Prison Break.

* The Lone Gunmen. (As an X-Files fan, I should pick this up on DvD.)

* Desperate Housewives. (My sis loves it though.)

* Arrested Development.

* Space: Above and Beyond.

* Surface.

* The Inside.

* Odyssey 5.

Of the bigger shows I've never watched:

The Office (either UK or US version)
Desperate Housewives (a frontal lobotomy sounds more pleasant)
Entourage
Grey's Anatomy
Prison Break
Sopranos
Veronica Mars (not actually sure this has been on in the UK)

Sitcoms were people howl and scream as soon as someone enters the set (see: Married With Children, Will And Grace etc).
Anything which can be loosely classed as a 'talent' show.
Anything featuring 'Z List' celebs.

Don't watch soaps either or reality shows (although I did watch some of the first BB and the first season of The Apprentice UK).

Lost
Heros
Grays Anatomy
Veronica Mars
Survivor and just about ever reality show
All of the CSI shows
Desperate House Wives
Prison Break

You know it would be easier to name the ones I do watch. I just don't watch much TV anymore. They keep taking the shows I like off the air.

I am trying to think of more, but if you don't watch them why bother remembering their names.

Well my brain is beginning to hurt so I'll stop there.

Nearly every show mentioned here I avoid like the plague. I'll just mention the ones that make me turn my TV on for an hour or two.

Watch:

Heroes (for God's sakes try it, you might actually like it)

Eureka (new season's coming up, me am so happy)

Yup, that's it.

Never watched Buffy (*meh) Only some of Angel (s'alright) VM, just never appealed to me, same with Arrested Developement and many other popular shows listed. I watched a total of 3 (non)reality shows, the very first Survivor (cause I wanted to know what the hell was going on and wanted to see who won (but I stopped watching it mid season because it was the same whining complaining and bullshit). Big Brother 4 (I admit I liked it and was shocked at who won the damn money. That was enough for me) The only real (non)reality show I ever really liked was Joe Shmoe. The reactions from him were real, and he deserved all the money he got. Whatever happened to that guy?

Frankly if it wasn't for Heroes and the upcoming season of Eureka my TV would never be on.

I'm a tv junkie, so I do watch a lot of stuff, but for some reason, the really incredibly popular stuff I could never get into. Like AMERICAN IDOL, GREY'S ANATOMY, HOUSE are insanely popular stuff I've never seen or gotten into. I saw the pilot of HOUSE because it was directed by Bryan Singer, and one ep of AMERICAN IDOL where Quentin Tarantino was a guest judge. Other than that, never.

Oh, and GILMORE GIRLS. When I hear that, I think of the one ep of SIX FEET UNDER when they use it as a punchline in regards to mother/daughter relationships. So I'm not going to ever care about that show. I think I'd break out in hives if I were to even see a full minute of that show.

And I know a lot of people are saying that FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS is an incredible, underrated series that deserves all the success it can get, but I'm not buying it. Never once played football in my life, never was on a high school team, never some jock with a six pack who slept with every cheerleader and went to college on a scholarship. So I find it hard to empathize with those kind of people.

And it's weird how I discovered Aaron Sorkin the same way I discovered Joss. I never saw THE WEST WING during it's run, and then really like him when STUDIO 60 came and went. And it's the same with Joss. Never saw BUFFY during its run, but saw FIREFLY afterwards and then caught up with Joss and his work. Although personally I'm not up to renting all seven seasons of THE WEST WING. I'm sure it's a great, incredible series. Just isn't my thing.

Also, in terms of classic series, I never saw THE DUKES OF HAZZARDS or THE A-TEAM. Apparently they're pop culture lexicons, but it just seems like 80's junk. I can never understand why people idolize the 80's. With the exception of a few things, the 80's was just a hang-over decade of incredibly bad taste.

Yup. The first and second series were shown on the 'Living tv' channel. The third series is currently airing on 'Trouble.'

(On a side note, I'm from Scotland.)
