jayseven Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Soooooooooo! What are you guys watching weekly, and what are you catching up on? I was catching up with House, Supernatural, Ultimate Fighter and Dexter but now they are weeklies for me, and I am finally getting through Game of Thrones, up to e03 (all win). Got the 3 eps of Walking Dead to watch tonight as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sméagol Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I’m just waiting for Doctor Who. (and I used to be such a TV junkie) Ocassionally I catch Community and Chuck on our local Comedy Central, but really, I’ll catch up one day when I have the money to buy some boxsets. Dexter, The walking Dead, Game of Thrones, are among the first of the ones I want to see or catch up on. If we’re talking radio however.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tales Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Watching weekly of House, Big Bang Theory, Damages, Vampire Diaries, Pretty Little Liars, Gossip Girl and CSI New York. Cathing up on Heroes, NCIS and Warehouse 13 when I get around to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 I tend to reserve actual TV for either shite stuff which doesn't need my attention (Big Bro... TOWIE... shuddering at this but it's true!) or football... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ville Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Seventh (7.) year without TV, and totally happy with that. Internet totally pwns TV, as you can watch whatever you like whenever you like. TV is more like a straight-jacket of dullness, only to bore and restrict. Speaking of which...do you guys actually watch TV or TV programmes via the internet? I mean there is some good stuff, but due to all the crap it's much more pleasant to watch via the internet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sméagol Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Oh I forgot some guilty pleasures by the way. I’ve discovered Teen nick some time ago.. I really like Big Time Rush (funny) and Victorious (funny and full of cuties). So I occasionally catch that. Between manly action movies and hardcore hentai of course. Ehm yeah, please don’t throw stuff at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro_Link Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 The Norwegian reality show? 71 degrees north refers to the northern most part of mainland Norway.It's a show where a bunch of celebrities have to make their way to 71 degrees North, facing all kinds of snow related activities, challenges, missions along the way! Amy Williams is on it this year (our Olympic Skeleton Bob' Gold Medalist) who is amazing and I love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I watch very little television, and it's exclusively on catch-up services. Young Apprentice at the moment, but any series of the Apprentice I watch. X Factor too, out of boredom/I hate the fact I do, but it's fine. And currently Made in Chelsea (catching up with the last series), which is hilarious. But yeah as for actually good tv shows, I always watch them in box set form, and only one at a time. Just finished Six Feet Under, and need time to rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platty Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Currently Sky+ing and on top of watching: The Walking Dead Season 2 - I love. Terra Nova - first ep was good, it's now so bad I just have to keep watching. New Misfits - Great show and filmed where I live... Fresh Meat - Love it. On Sky+ box need watching: Game of Thrones - only watched first 2 eps so far. Inside Gatwick - What?? I use this airport a lot and I want to watch a show about it! Sneaky ahead show: True Blood Season 4 all done and dusted :-) I also waste a lot of time watching countless episodes of Man vs Food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Magnus; that's 5 shows a day... That's insane! Fortunately not all of them are on at the same time, so it's more like, four shows one day, two shows the next. And then one or two shows a week during the summer months. Plus I do most of my TV watching while sculpting with polymer clay, so that helps a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Dexter is my Monday morning solace. I watch it before work and it just sets the tone. Plus it results in me being much more profane on a Monday. Then there's How I Met Your Mother, Chuck and I think that's it at the moment. I reluctantly watch The Big Bang Theory. I find it meh (or average I should say) but there's always a time when I have nothing else to watch. Also the quiz shows (HIGNFY, QI, Nevermind). Waiting for the return of 30 Rock and Cougar Town.

Magnus Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 The Big Bang Theory airs on the same night and at the same time as Community, so you could always watch that instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 But I've seen most of TBBT, I've only watched the pilot of Community :p I think it and Parks and Rec are going to sit on my to watch list until they finish. And it's not like I watch them when they air, that's silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I watch Match of the Day every Saturday, Match of the Day 2, and any football or rugby that I can get my hands on. (mostly football). I don't really watch a whole lot of telly, because I'm either at work, in the gym, up in my room playing some games or...sleeping or something. I'm not too keen on watching shows like Dexter every week on telly. Would rather have the boxset and watch as many episodes as I could in one go, or say two a night with Ine. I'm impatient with that...I'd probably lose a bit of interest if I had to watch only one episode every week. Not a fan of soaps or this x-factor/strictly come dancing/other popularity contest stuff. If I do watch anything, it's probably a music channel of some sort, preferably with a countdown of some kind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's not like I watch them when they air, that's silly. I meant that since they both air/become available online on the same day, you could use Community to fill the void left when you stop watching The Big Bang Theory. And I hate your logic of "I've watched all of [bad show] so I'm going to keep watching it - I haven't watched [good show] so I'm going to keep not watching it". Hate it. :p I think you're too smart for The Big Bang Theory, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I just watch it when I want to zone out, its more difficult to zone out when you have to pay attention :p If TBBT got rid of all the male characters it would be much better.

Magnus Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 It would just be that girl from 8 Simple Rules and Blossom. It would somehow manage to be funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raining_again Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 i just watch neighbours, home&away, hollyoaks, and occasionally some eastenders. A lot of my "tv" watching would be anime like bleach and naruto, I would be more bothered about missing that than I would the tv programmes. Home & away is the only real essential viewing tv wise... love it.. Daryl Braxton <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipaul Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I never make a job of actually watching something on the TV. I'll watch Buzzcocks, HIGNFY or Match Of The Day on there occasionally but that is pretty much it. Everything else is viewed online - mostly this is due to the fact I have a shared telly and the housemates watch nothing but utter, utter shite. Partly though I just enjoy not having to think about the schedule of TV. Online viewing is where it's at. Shame our internet is fucking terrible at the moment >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
