I can't do this because I don't watch much tv. First of all there is nothing worth watching, and second I am too busy most of the time to sit and watch the tv. When I do watch something it is 90% TCM, otherwise Food Network or an old movie rented from Netflix. Oh, and when Rome or Deadwood were on HBO.
 
1. The Prisoner
2. Danger Man
3. The Simpsons
4. The Avengers
5. I Dream of Jeannie
6. Batman
7. Monty Python's Flying Circus
8. Green Acres
9. Andy Griffith Show
10. Star Trek (original)

Can't do it.

11. Honeymooners.
12. Twilight Zone
13. I Love Lucy
14. Beverly Hillbillies
15. Benny Hill Show

I can still go on. I really don't like many shows from the 70s to today. Some exceptions are MASH, Moonlighting, Mr. Bean. X-Files. Seinfeld (which doesn't really hold up in reruns) Taxi, Barney Miller. Oh yes, and of course Put A Lid On It (but only the episodes with Olivier)

Regards,

Senator Jack

01. The Adventures of Brisco County Jr
02. The Chris Isaak Show
03. Just the Ten of Us
04. Gilmore Girls
05. House
06. Charmed
07. So You Think You Can Dance
08. Hey Dude
09. Friday the 13th The Series
10. Whatever classic I am into at the moment. I Love Lucy, Andy Griffith, and The Addams Family are usually interchangable.

Oh boy how did you list "BATMAN"? :p
Well Senator Jack, other than that, I agree 100%, Not necessarily in that order, lets move up the Beverly Hillbillies, "I can't do this"!!! :eek:
I take it you’re a young fella, so I for give you for not listing TV’s golden age series 12 O’clock High, Combat! and the Rat Patrol, so I'll throw them in for good measure. lol

You mean people actually watch cooking channel and Emeril? :eusa_clap
I'm just play'n with ya, cause I'm an awful cook, its quality I look for in females lol Some woman just don't cook these days, why? but getting back to the topic amd bay area.
Nice local selection AndyK, I just don't watch baseball since the last baseball strike, just turned me off, ticket prices for a kids game. I'd rather watch college ball for less. I do catch or peek in from time to time my Oakland A's, only because of the golden era, those World series memories, those were the days.
I agree with all choices selected, but mainly Discovery, History Channel and TMC I watch more than ever, plus Comedy Channel, Bernie Mac is fun, do catch "Everybody hates Chris" it has its moments, funny, I just don't spend alot of time surfing channels (History C & TMC only) Girls will be girls, so its cool ladies with your selections, Gilmore Girls, Charmed, and I'd lay off the The O'Reilly Factor, just an opinion, friendly advice, its not worth it, Try Colbert Report lol
Hey everyone should watch Colbert Report, this guy is my main man:eusa_clap

Hmm? Well let's see
1. Lost
2. Amazing Race- to me it's a game show rather than horrible "reality" TV
3. CSI- Vegas
4. Two and a Half Men
5. Stargate Atlantis
6. Mind of Mencia
7. Smallville
8. Stargate SG 1
9. Simpsons reruns
10. Pimp My Ride

I watch many things on The History Channel about WW 2 especially. Discovery has stuff I like regarding ancient civilizations plus American Chopper and Overhaulin'. I watch various things on The Comedy Channel from old George Carlin events to South Park. I watch the 23 NHRA drag racing event per year on ESPN but NO other sports of any kind on any channel. :D

OOOHH, I love the cooking channel. I like that show about the history of treats, "Unwrapped", and I must admit I like Rachel Ray "30 Minute Meals" and "$40 a Day", even though her hand gestures are a bit annoying. I like Bobby Flay, but not a big Emeril fan. Alton Brown is fun too, I like how he gets all scientific. And Everyday Italian is one of my favorites. I have a lot of cookbooks written by the stars of these shows. They are quite good, and nothing is so complicated or filled with unattainable ingredients that it can't be done. Any show about cake or cookie decorating is always good to watch too.

My favorites are Everyday Italian, Paula Deen, and Rachael Ray.
