What are ye all watching these days?

Dman001

So what are ye all watching these summer days. Lost, Heroes and Prison Break may be over but there is still enough on to keep me entertained. I'm watching:

The Mentalist-Fantastic show and since CSI has gone downhill, this is a great substitute.

The US Office-I was a late watcher of The Office so I'm still catching up on series 3 on Comedy Central and the latest series on 3e. A fantastic comedy, one of my all time favourites.

30 Rock-Not a great show, a bit over-hyped but I'll still watch it.

Chuck-I'm still catching up with series 1 and recording series 2 on Virgin1. A good turn off your brain show.

Harper's Island-A good drama probably more for the teens, keeps me entertained on Monday nights.

Scrubs-I initially hated Series 9 but I soon got to love it but the series seems to be taking a break on RTE.

Elmo

Feck all. Cann't think of anything I am currently watching. Flicking more than anything. I am sticking with 24 but ah it isn't as good as it used to be. I enjoyed Damages and Terminator: The Sarah.....

Shryke

Currently making my way through The Wire. Just about to start Season Three so I've a bit to go.

Deadwood and Battlestar are both gone bye bye. Dexter lost it for me after season 2, and that wasn't brilliant. Too many characters I didn't like and one I did that won't be returning. I'm pretty much in it for Lost and House at this stage. Lost has one season left, House will go for a few more hopefully. I think I'm almost done with Television. I shant miss ye (and yer shite adds).

Star Trek: The Next Generation... currently rewatching through the seasons, I have a few others shows on hold (lie to me, leverage) but I just don't have the gusto to watch them. Might give BSG another go as I'm interested in watching some space sci-fi, of which there seems to be none of at the moment.

Dman001

Oh ya, House is another series I'm watching, great show.

jor el

Watching Lie To Me and Underbelly right now. Season 2 of True Blood is airing now in the US, and pretty much the only current show I'm watching, apart from Burn Notice.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Great way to spend the summer is to just watch Nickelodeon and Disney Channel all day long;

Drake & Josh
Hannah Montana
iCarly
Wizards of Waverly Place
Genie in the House
Suite Life of Zack and Cody
Suite Life on Deck

It's great fun and makes you feel like a kid again. Then in September we can return to the more grown up shows.

NormanNicetouch

Box sets of 'Leave it to Mrs O'Brien' and 'Upwardly Mobile'. Good weather always brings out the nostalgia for those childhood summers when we only had the 2 channels. Google it kids.

Teacherman

House is brilliant. He is real bastard. Its amazing the way Hugh Laurie just fits into the role-perhaps that's because English and Irish people are cynical at heart! The one critique I would make of House and The Mentalist (and others) is that they seem to have jumped on the CSI Bandwagon with their anal attention to detail. 'Ah I see you don't drink coffee because you shook your head twice but you prob once did because most people only shake their head once and twice means a real rejection'

.Its on 3e Sunday. I'm also on Season 5 of the Sopranos.

Breaking Bad on FX. Great Show.

Watching Peep Show again as well

Is there any decent Sci-Fi out at the moment? With Terminator cancelled and Dollhouse on hiatus; I'm out of ideas. I think there might be some Red Dwarf series 9 floating about but the first episode was pretty average and I dont have any other possibilities. Help!

Oh good god, how can you watch that crap, especially that Zack and Cody nonsense. Even for children's programming, it's awful.

NormanNicetouch wrote: »

'Upwardly Mobile'.

Of all the sitcoms there have ever been, none were were less funny than this. I used to hate when there was only two channels to chose from, and that was on one of them. I had to go outside, to the real world!

See that was the public service part of that broadcast. I don't know I have seen Genie in da house and I think that comes close.

Agghhhh, I tried to watch Dollhouse and Knight Rider but they were awful. We need some new Sci-Fi show. I hear Steven Speilberg is making a new TV Series, something to do with the aftermath of Alien abductions.

Mr E

Watching True Blood Season 1 at the moment, started off slow but its getting good now!

Basq

Glad to see you're enjoying True Blood Dave.. Breaking Bad next buddy!

I'm watching shag all at the moment. Plenty of nixers (web design mainly) outside of work keeping me busy, and I've been getting re-acquanted with my old friend, Mr 360.

I started watching Leverage (first 2 - 3), watched all of the first season and half of the second season of 'Early Doors' (never seen it.. not as good on The Royle Family but very good all the same!).

I had so many good intentions for this Summer - The Wire (seasons 3 onwards), The Shield (season 2 onwards), Leverage, Supernatural (season 2 onwards) and much more. They're going by the wayside.

Am gonna finish Leverage next week.. and possibly get back onto Supernatural,

krudler

Just finished season 3 of The Wire, why more people dont watch this show when shyte like Big Brother is in its 10th year I dont know, its why we have a culture of dullards these days

The Black Oil

House and Top Gear on TV.

Coming to the end of season 1 of The Unit on DVD. It's fairly rubbish, some of the dialogue is poor and the wives are dreadful. Hard to believe Shawn Ryan of The Shield has a hand in this.

It should be called 'America, f**k yeah!'.

I bought this on DVD could get past the first 15 mins, really, really bad.

Poochie05

As all my favourite shows were coming to an end, I was wondering what I was going to watch next and how I would last the summer without any good shows but there seems to be lots on.
I'm watching S5 of House and quite enjoying it. I had gone off it a bit but have gotten back into it.
The Mentalist on RTE
The Inside on 3e
Season 6 of NCIS on FX

id hardly call it raining on my parade, where is this parade taking place,

I might start watching Smallville . Is it worth starting from the beginning?

i dont think so, its changed direction so much, you might get caught for some story here and there, but not much, ive watched it all, and just watch now cause ive watched it for so long, it wouldnt be at the top of things i have to watch,

lostexpectation

somebody suggested that 3lbs show, where they freeze the guy, it only aired 3 eps before it was canclled it was made in 2006

lostexpectation

Only 1 episode AFAIK..

lostexpectation

ok a pilot and 1 ep :P

mickoneill30

Burn Notice is the only program currently on air (in the US anyway) that I'm watching. Really simple spy stuff. Leave your brain at the door but it's entertaining.
I got Rome recently. Fairly decent and worth a look.

Never saw any of the Inbetweeners and Peep Show. They're on my list.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

When has anything other than the pilot been shown?

Caked Karen

i'm bombing my way through Brothers and Sisters at the moment - easy to watch and being a girl and all I need something Greys Anatomy/Private Practice etc like although Calista flockhart still wrecks my head...thats going back to Ally McBeal days!

Also watching new True Blood which is just a brilliant show

new show wise, have started watching Mental, Nurse Jackie and Royal Pains...all of which i am enjoying esp Mental but I am a fan of Chris Vance

artfreak

Watching Coach Trip on Channel 4, its like Big Brother on wheels, very funny and rewatching Royle Family

mufc4lfe

FATHER&SON just started on rte1 and it seems quite good...........its a four part series.....worth watching.

Magic.Marker

Greys Anatomy, Private Practice, Desperate Housewives, ER, CSI: Las Vegas & New York, Cold Case, Bones, Without a Trace, repeats of the Gilmore Girls... I have seasons one of House and Ugly Betty on DVD but I haven't had a chance to watch them yet.

Spiritoftheseventies

Watching the Office- An American Workplace. Not as good as english version but still very watchable.
