What Shows Are You Watching?

skinsfanthru&thru · 03-27-2010, 02:50 AM

My two new show's this year are Modern Family and Spartacus. Modern Family is a perfect cast that seems to play off each other so seamlessly and Spartacus is essentially 300 mixed with Gladiator on a semi cheesy level, but is still addictive as hell. I haven't had the time to go through the over 130 posts in this thread, but is anybody else a huge Big Bang Theory fan? I just got into it a few months ago, but Sheldon is one of the funniest characters on tv IMO in years.

Also I've gotten hooked on Mythbusters. That would be such an awesome job because they do some absolutely crazy crap on there.

Commedy Ranked:

1.- How I met your mother... Barney RULEEES have to see it from season 1 but it's the best series in a long time.this series is Legen.... waith for it... dary
2.- Modern Familly.. New Series but maaan great charecters and great writing
3.- Bing bang Theory... Bazzinga nuf said.
4.- The Office even I have to agree this hasn't been the best season still a clasic.
5.- Community as some said started slow and hated that Chevy Chase was in it but found it's voice and man cracks me up every week... Abed and Sr. Chang are the show.
6.- Parks & recreation quickly gaining grown on the Office I think that because one is fresh the writers have more to work with.

Dramas

1.- Dexter... best series out there even named my dog after it.
2.- Spartacus... it's new but man gladiators,blood fights good story and tons of boobs what's not to like.
3.- Breaking bad... great story with malcoms dad in it about a father with cancer that start making meth.
4.-House... love the sarcastic take and subplots.
5.-FlashFoward very similar to Lost without the island started very good had a slump i nthe middle but got me hooked again since it came back.

When I watch Big Bang Theory I generally like it, but I don't make it a point to watch it regularly

I'm a pretty hard core geek/nerd so I think thats why I've gotten hooked on it.

Kaley Cuoco is the only good thing about the Big Bang Theory. I don't think it's very funny, and the tall, skinny, overly verbose nerdy guy... Yeah, I'd like to punch him.

hahahaha

def not the type of guy I'd hang out with but something about his pretentiousness cracks me up

kaley is something special though definitely.. she was in one of those men's mags recently and had a great shoot

It's one of the shows I watch on the plane, but I've never actually seen it when not up in the air.

It doesn't, in my opinion, come close to How I Met Your Mother as far as CBS sitcoms

Anyway, as far as new shows I watched some Men of a Certain Age today. Thought it was decent, but nothing really all that great. Was hoping for more considering the cast.

tryfuhl · 03-28-2010, 03:02 AM

can't say I've watched either of those shows

Dirtbag59 · 03-28-2010, 03:40 AM

One day I'll watch How I met your Mother. It seems like it could easily be in the same neighborhood as Friends when it's all said and done. Though I would prefer for the series to be almost finished by the time I start watching it. More fun to marathon a show rather then one a week. Anyway looks like I'll have something to look forward to in 2015.

Personally when I get a chance I like watching The Big Bang Theory. Not exactly the best combination of humor and story like you see in shows like Friends and Frasier but it definitely has the humor part down.

In the meantime the only sitcom that I haven't really gotten a chance to see all the way through is Will and Grace. Very rarely have I not gotten a good laugh out of the show so thats always a good thing. Though I wish I could rewatch Everybody Loves Raymond, George Lopez, Frasier, Malcolm in the Middle, and Friends for the first time. I also wish I could get into Cheers but it's just not my type show, not to say I don't enjoy it when it comes on. I'll probably get around one day to News Radio and Just Shoot Me.

It's kind of like coaches that have won a Super Bowl with a previous team. Very difficult to repeat the same level of success. Fox probably thought they had a surefire hit with Back to You with Patricia Heaton and Kelsey Grammer. NBC learned that with Joey.

One of my all time favorites

The Pacific continues to rock. Just flat out great, great television. And if you aren't proud to be American after watching it, I'm not quite sure if you have a pulse.

I also really like Life on Discovery. So impressive. How they get some of those shots blows my mind. Shows like Life and Planet Earth are the reasons that HD television exists.

And I friggin forgot to DVR the new episode of Family Guy tonight. Shit.
