Sex and the City.
Cold Case.
But I get very grumpy if I can't see C.S.I.:Las Vegas
I watched Sex and the City a couple of times. It got old very fast, 'cause it seemed to be a one joke show. Also, I had been quite taken with Chris Noth on Law & Order. I did not like the part he played in Sex and the City.
Cold Case is a show that kind of grew on me. It is rather formulaic, but I often find it interesting.
I used to love CSI- Las Vegas, but I think that the excitement is wearing off on me. CSI Miami- Fuggedaboudit!
Actually, Phoenix, there's very little on television that I would make a special effort to watch. The one exception last year was Angels In America. The weekly serials I can take or leave, really.
I don't watch any of the soaps in England, which omits me from loads of conversations in work. Whilst visiting Canada (Vancouver) someone said I had a 'Coronation Street' accent! I was horrified......always thought I was quite posh. Do you guys know what Coronation Street is? :wink:
Yes, my idea of a British "soap". Many Americans can't distinguish between the accents of the UK classes...just as many Britons can't distinguish between a New Hampshire and a Georgia accent.
panzade- I probably miss the shadings, but I certainly know a Cockney accent from the Queen's English.
Sarah, I have no idea what a coronation street accent is.
Phoenix, I watch Monk every chance that I get, and SVU. Used to watch King of the Hill and Home Improvement but that's about it.
Anyone here ever watch The Librarian? A mixture of all the fantasies rolled into one. I think it was a great spoof.
Got a marvelous early Christmas gift from my son-- A video and DVD player combined, so I'll be watching a lot of movies, I suppose.
The difference between Northern and Southern accents (in GB) is quite marked. We have a whole different vocabluary here in the North! e.g. Top = good, dead = very, blimey = really, and of course swearing is a whole other area. My five year old neice frequently says Bugger Off, we use it all the time, and don't consider it rude. :wink:
Ok, Sarah. I believe that McTag explained that. Thanks.
I catch the "news" nightly as well as CSI reruns (and the new episodes). Monk is a regular (when I remember to watch. COPS and World's Wildest Police Videos (or whatever the actual name is) also are on.
Other than those, the TV is always on for background, bit while I am probably missing much, there doesn't seem to be much worth watching.
The only must-see TV for me was Hill Street Blues and St. Elsewhere!

I'm a massive fan of World's Wildest Police Videos!
Hi. I'm Sheriff John Burnell (Ret'd)...
I always loved the medical shows. I go back as far as Dr. Kildare, and Ben Casey. Always watched St. Elsewhere.
I never saw any of Twin Peaks, and everyone was raving about it.
Grand Duke- Until you mentioned it, I hardly remembered "Twin Peaks". It just passed me by!
I won't watch any reality show except "The Amazing Race"
(and I'm afraid I'm hooked on that).
I've been told I'm missing a great show in "Lost".
Maybe I'll try to catch it on reruns.
I watched the very first "Survivor", and was taken up with the idea. After that, all the others seemed to be "same old, same old", and I had no desire to watch them.
I don't get to watch too much grown up TV but I make it a point to catch 60 Minutes and The Daily Show. Other than that, I miss just about everything. Somtimes I really miss relaxing in front of the TV.
People tell me that my voice sounds just like the mom on Home Improvement and I've always meant to try to see that show just to find out.
