View Full Version : American TV
Just thought I'd start a poll to see which American Channel you watch the most shows from.
Also a general forum to say what American shows we watch and stuff, and to see if others watch the same!
For me, when it comes to drama, the Americans do it best.
What's Aired On What
ABC - Desperate Housewives, Lost, Dirty Sexy Money, Greys Anatomy, Scrubs, Pushing Daises
NBC - Heroes, ER, Law & Order, My Name's Earl, Friends
CBS - CSIs, Without A Trace, Criminal Minds, NCIS
Showtime - Weeds, Dexter, The L Word
HBO - The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Sex And The City
Fox - Prison Break, 24, House, Bones, Family Guy, The Simpsons
The CW - Smallville, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, Supernatural, Reaper
FX - Nip Tuck, The Shield, Ally Mcbeal, That 70s Show
I don't know.. I watch Lost (can't remember which channel that is) Scrubs, Simpson (who is on Fox), Friends from American tv

out of that list, i only really watch heroes, friends and pushing daisies. some of the other shows i wanted to watch, such as prison break and dirty sexy money but i forget theyre on and then dont have time to catch up. ive seen scrubs a few times too
The only American program I watch regularly is House, on Fox. I sometimes watch Law and Order and CSI. I watched an episode of Pushing Daisies on ITV2 when it was on but couldn't really get into it.

Out of those listed I watch -
ABC - Dirty Sexy Money, Scrubs, Pushing Daises
NBC - ER, My Name's Earl, Friends
Showtime - The L Word
HBO - Sex And The City
Fox - Prison Break
Watching TV actually in America is so annoying. Waaay too many adverts, don't you think? I probably watch Fox the most though.

grays anatomy, ugly betty, one tree hill if its on, gossip girl - strangly obsessed with it in a oc way
oh god, i've only just realised how bad my viewing habits are - regards to American TV!
I've got to download 8 shows this year to watch, with new seasons of each starting from September onwards. I'm not gonna be able to download them all at uni as we only have a 10GB bandwith a month in our house! Will have to strategically plan what i can download whenever i come home for visits, haha! :D
Gotta download: Desperate Housewives, Dirty Sexy Money, Prison Break, Dexter, The L Word, Lost, Pushing Daises and Nip Tuck!
Luckily Weeds is coming to an end as I go back to uni, so that's one less American show to worry about!!!

oh no!!!! and 24 starts aswell in January! :eek: oh this is just getting ridulous!!!
i need to priortise what I really want to watch, and what can wait until the summer. knowing how long this summer was i might appreciate saving a few series to watch until then.
I know I'll deffo want to watch Dirty Sexy Money before it airs on Channel 4 as thats one of my new faves, as is Nip Tuck!
I might wait for Desperate Housewives on channel 4 because it starts again in January, and we do like watching that as a flat! Same with Lost, we like watching that as a flat, but we don't have sky, so we'll have to download that to watch!
The rest may have to wait until Christmas/Easter/Summer!
Gosh how sad I am haha :lol: :D
Lol I know how you feel
Its like TV controls your life

see if I had sky/cable i wouldnt mind as much as most of these shows i could just watch on the tv, but i dont so i'll miss most if i dont download from the net!
and the ones that are on terrestrial, they take forever to come here from america - despies and dirty sexy money etc! everyone should take a leaf out sky's books and show the shows just days after their air in the states!

You know Bryan you could DL most shows a few hours after they are shown in the US and then delete them once you have watched them, then watch the repeats when they are shown over here.

I know, but I've got to be careful not to exeed my bandwidth limit, or then i'll be in trouble!
