Ari/Llyod comments are great, but his one-liners when talking with his wife or Eric are golden.

Actually, my grandmother watches golf because it's quiet and pretty.

I'm addicted to all the shows on Bravo right now...

Workout
Blowout
Inside the Actor's Studio
Project Runway
Real Howewives of Orange County (When it was still on)

There may be more, but I just generally love everything on that channel.

Swordsman · 04-08-2006, 01:18 AM

Blow Out is sucha funny show, as is The Soup because it constantly makes fun of Blow Out. Always Sunny In Philadelphia is goddamn hilarious.

Mandy · 04-08-2006, 02:15 AM

Yeah it's funny watching it thinking there's been no other straight man as gay as he is.

Inside the Actor's Studio is excellent.

Poker is excellent (but then I play) whilst Golf does suck royally. Sports OTHER than golf are worth watching. Even Basketball in a pinch, although I generally don't like to watch it. Cricket and football. Formula One, but only if I have 3 hours spare. It's a bit much and I'd rather watch 3 hours of Test Cricket if the choice is there.

Oh, and Sex And The City blows HUGE chunks. Even the gorgeous Kim Cattrall (how good does she look for 50?! Too old for my tastes but she must be a pin-up to guys of that age. Only hope my future wife ages that well) and Kristin Davis (mmm, yummy. She may be 31 but I still would) and even Cynthia Nixon (who's alright for a woman of 40) can't distract from the huge nose of Sarah Jessica Parker (there are Eagles jealous of that beak) or the abysmal script.

Kitchen Confidential (produced by the creator of Sex and The City) is actually better.

J.R. · 06-08-2006, 03:44 AM

My Favorite TV show is XPlay, a gaming show on G4tv, I've been watching this show for years now and I like it because they review video games and inject some humor into it. Although, the show is going downhill(mainly because the network it on sucks with the exceptiopn of XPlay)

The Show I hate with the burning passion of 1000 Flames(Nice intro eh?) is Queer Eye of the straight guy. When I go to my dad's house my step-mother is always watching the damn show, i don't know why. but for some reason it seems like thats the only thing thats ever on the TV.Also, The The main guy in the show's voice makes my ears bleed.

Katielondon · 06-08-2006, 06:51 PM

i think Nip/Tuck has been my favorite show since it started.

yyyyyyyyyyes Nip/Tuck is awesome-its not on here anymore.

I really like "The Chaser's War On Everything" especially when that guy Chaz got arrested for selling fake weapons and ruffies to people going into a rugby game.

I HATE "Everybody Loves Raymond" and I have no idea why. I think its just one of those irrational things.

Swordsman · 07-08-2006, 05:32 AM

I just bought the Boondocks the Complete First Season on DVD today after only seeing about 5 episodes. I am very happy i bought. It's just shot up to my favorite cartoon of all time. For serious.

tis NOT irrational. i HATE that show as well. i seriously think it should be renamed "everybody hates raymond"

and WHY THE HELL did the WB put two episodes of i hate raymond over the good old two episodes of friends? friends could kick raymond's ass any day.

oh... and i love sex and the city. yah, it's over already - but it ended on a relatively good note, and SJP is seriously my hero. well as much as she can be without a bra =P

Hazzle · 07-08-2006, 07:42 AM

Women, SATC and SJP. Is there a single bigger cliche in the whole world?

It's proof you lot should never be allowed to rule the world.

Everybody Hates Raymond is bad, but not THAT bad. Seinfeld's worse, I don't get what the hype about that show is. It's pretty piss poor.

On the "everybody hates" idea, Everybody Hates Chris is hilarious.

Pygmalion · 08-08-2006, 03:52 AM

I agree that "Seinfeld" is worse than "Everybody Loves Raymond", but I know a lot of people who're obsessed with it.
I'm totally devo that they pulled the plug on "Wheel of Fortune" which was something my family could bond over (sad but true) and replaced it with re-runs of "Mash" which is a show I loathe.
On reality television, this lady I was sitting next to in the hairdressers used to tape "Big Brother Up Late" and watch it at her leisure during the day. GOD.

Mandy · 13-08-2006, 06:22 PM

Never mind the buzzcocks.

(Thanks to Ice's nifty skybox thingy)

MrPink · 13-08-2006, 09:24 PM

Agree with Cliff bout QI, fucking awesome show. alan davies and stephen fry are awesome. thing is with that show is that i actually remember the facts that come out of it, no matter how needless. i also love a question of sport. as i'm a sporty guy and watch a lot of sport so it's really up my street.

I despise all forms of reality, from big brother to super fucking nanny. my mother isnists on wathcing them an i go fucking mental. what really annoys me about it is that they really arn't reality at all. the situations that these people are put in are just not real so how can it be a reality tv show. What you are doing when you are watching them is disturbing, think about it. how bored must u be to watch bored people? (big brother for example)

Hazzle · 13-08-2006, 11:14 PM

Nevermind The Buzzcocks is hilarious.

Question of Sport is decent, but They Think It's All Over is better.

Digital_Ice · 13-08-2006, 11:35 PM

you havn't watched telly until you've watched transatlanitic shows via Ice's msn sky feed (patent pending)
