Another general one. What is your favourite programme to watch? Or genre?

I much prefer natural history and any documentaey that isn't on too late which captures my imagination, such as the Scientology one. I like to read and watch interesting things to stimulate my little brain (blame university) so I can't watch anything like Big Brother (which is making a comeback) without trying to ad an intellectual overtone. Fruitless I know. But hey, I think a lot.....

I generally don't watch TV anymore. I "acquire" TV shows and watch them without the adverts. ;)

Nowadays it's mostly series like Lost, Life On Mars, House, etc. I've started getting old TV shows like Blake's 7, Survivors, and docu-dramas like Threads.

I also watch an internet TV show called "Patrolling with Sean Kennedy" and "SKTFM". :)

*grins* Scientology is hilarious. :D

The doc was scary. They followed the reporter and watched him.. They blackmail you with personal information. Scary indeed.

I cannot wait until the new series of Life on Mars. I liked t when he came back to the 70s and not to the present where he was from. He had more fun there.

I've found myself watching more and more TV recently... possibly as a way to escape revising for my finals.  Generally I'll be watching CSI, Scrubs, House, Stargate SG1, JAG or Dr Who;  either as they're being broadcast for having been "aquired" by other means so I don't have to suffer the adverts.

Since Life on Mars ended, I don't really watch TV, apart from the odd repeat on Sky. I mainly watch things posted here:

I'm hopelessly addicted to Lost, even if it has started to swerve off course a little this last season... otherwise you'd usually find me watching South Park, King of the Hill, Have I Got News For You, QI, Catchphrase (repeats on Challenge!  ;D), Red Dwarf, Blackadder III, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, Robot Chicken, Sonic SATAM, Heathcliff, Knightmare, TOTP 2, Top Gear, Millionaire... all sorts.

'Say what you see, say what you see...' The Irish host was great. Even if the catchprase piccy was... a little crude at first, he would still go on.
