Ive been off tv for a few years now, find it all tends to get repetitive after a while, and instead have replaced it with the internet. Still find it useful for good documentaries though, but youtube is even making inroads into that now.

No TV for me either, I can't tell what i'll be up to when a show is on anyways, used to be easier with friends following the same show(Lost) we'd make a night out of it. I much prefer the internet. You tube videos at highest rank in frequency.

Although once in a while , it's relaxing to park in front of the TV and be a bit random about what i watch.

Mad men is a definite winner.
oh, and i have a weird amusement for reality series. That stuff got me glued to the TV over 3 hours a day for about a month last year.
Then came Charlie Brooker this year.

I actually prefer tv to movies because of the longer more in depth story telling that is possible ( though it rarely happens) in tv.

MST 3000
Twilight Zone
STTNG
BTVS
The Wire
30 Rock
Community
Battle star Galactica new one
Seinfeld
The Simpsons
Alfred Hitchcock presents
Lost first season
Arrested Development
Freaks and Geeks
Scrubs

So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?

Later with Jools Holland, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and QI.

BBC 4's usually the channel that I watch the most, though there's nothing in particular that I follow. Since I can't get it at the moment, the alternative is HBO and Comedy Central.

I also like catching the odd reruns of classics from Monty Python, Rowan Atkinson, Benny Hill, Dave Allen, Ronnie Barker, Stephen Fry, and others from that calibre.

I do enjoy a good chuckle. Although, when I'm really bored and depressed, snooker on BBC 2 is the one to kill time with.

I have been waiting for that series since 2005. And I am a huge Song of Ice Fire (book series on which Game of Thrones is based) nerd. I thought I was going to be disappointed but I wasn't. I think it'll go straight to my top 5 of best tv shows EVER.

+1, lols are endless

I watch repeats of Malcolm in the Middle every now and then.
Contender season 1 (boxing reality tv show) was quality - not availible on DVD but I managed to dowload it form the interwebz recently.

Family Guy Seasons 1 - 4 (rest is shit, I know it, you know it, no need to fake it)
South Park
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Curb Your Enthusiasm!!!!! Probably the best show ever made (except around Season 5)
Flight of the Conchords (you have to get into it. Persevere and epic lulz will be had)
The Office UK (US is also ok). How one can invent the character of David Brent is really beyond me. Stroke of genius, period.
Desperate Housewives was also really good, Season 1 is awesome, then it goes down a steady slope, but Season 5 is again great. Never finished season 6 because = lame.

For those unfamiliar with Curb, here's three of the most epic scenes imo.

Larry David vs Bluetooth guy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0uTi2qkgf0

Background: Larry keeps his sex life kinky-free, so if he divorces, his ex wouldn't have anything on him
