What's everyone watching or waiting for TV wise?

At the moment we're watching Rome, Lost, Top Gear (shush) and we seem to catch that strictly come dancing thing...

Waiting for the new Dr who.

Jen and I have almost stopped watching TV apart from a few programmes, we tend to leave MTV2 on in the background whilst at home.

I am currently watching/dling second series of Lost, waiting for second series of Battlestar Galactica to restart.

On "proper" TV the only thing I always catch is Peep Show on Channel 4.

Looking forward to new Doctor Who, as is Jen - who always hated Doctor Who, but Billie Piper helped lure her in and she loved the last series.

I watch very little TV, and most of what I do watch, I download.

Doctor Who, Rome, Lost, House, Galactica, The West Wing - think that's about it.

US medical drama starring Hugh Laurie doing a very convincing non-British accent.

Every week, House and his crack team of genius doctors (including Billy off of Neighbours, Robert Sean Leonard and the prostitute Sam slept with in the West Wing) have to diagnose the mystery ailment of the week, all the while whilst acting in ever more dysfunctional ways.

The House character is actually a lot fo fun, even if everyone else in it is not. And the medicine in it is truly, truly, truly appalling. I cannot emphasise too much how BAD the medicine is. Every time they do a paediatric based episode, Sarah has to sedate me. The week they took over the neonatal ICU, I nearly had a stroke.

I shout at the television a lot when it's on. I have a strange relationship with it - I hate it so much that I love watching it.



Much like certain of my editing tasks...

 There's very little new TV we watch nowadays.

QI, The Daily Show and The Bill, that's about it. Repeats of Simpsons, Futurama, Buffy, Scubs, Malcolm in the Middle and A Bit Of Fry and Laurie.

Looking forward to new Doctor Who, Brainiac and Desperate Housewives. Lost interest in Lost, never had any interest in Battlestar Galactica.

Looking forward to the new Desperate Housewives though it can annoy Peyton Wink

Brainiac, will this have he who possibly had his teeth whitened on it?

Battlestar Galactica is great.   Sabrina'd never even watched the original and approached it with trepidation, but it's a really good sci-fi show with characters that are painfully human.

QI we tend to catch as well and been watching the BBC revamped Shakespeare.


I just loathe certain characters on Housewives.

What's QI ?

Starbuck was the reason to watch Battlestar.
