    Don't have one really - just a few must see appointments like Mad Men, Wonders of the Solar System and QI XL at the moment. The rest is take it or leave it with films and live sport taking up most viewing time.

    Well my week usually consists of the following TV programming:

    Sunday: 24 on Sky1 @ 9pm
    Monday: Was Flashforward on RTE 2 (but now thats on a break)
    Tuesday: Desperate Housewives on RTE 2 9:50pm
    Wednesday: Criminal Minds on RTE 2 @ 10pm (think time has changed around a bit form week to week)
    Thursday: Lost on RTE 2 @ 9:55pm
    Friday: True Blood on FX at 10pm

    My mid-week viewing would change from time to time when theres soccer on - eg. Champions League.
    Also I'd usually catch episodes of Family Guy on 3e or FX on different nights.

    I don't have one now that I've switched to internet viewing and got rid of the TV.

    Between Sky + and the interweb, I have no need to succumb to scheduling and can watch whatever I want at my leisure...

    The wife monpolises the TV with soaps until the last one is over. Then it's Holby City, Causualty, Lark Rise to Candleford. It is any wonder I spend my evenings on the web? Wimmin. There's war when there's football on. Thanks God she has the sense to back off when ManU are playing or I'd be posting from the 'Joy.

    Who said anything about watching TV on a netbook?

    With Sky+ and that little wonder, I watch what I want when I want.

    You know The Sparrow... I had practically the same reply as you and deleted it as I realised ScumLord did say (and I quote):
    and got rid of the TV.

    Same as basq/sparrow. I watch what I want, when I want.

    Stuff I watch as soon as it airs (from current schedule) are things like Lost, Supernatural, Human Target, 24, Survivor, Flash Forward, Criminal Minds and The Office. Other stuff gets queued up and watched in batches.

    On Sky, I record anything I want to watch (so I can skip ads). Dragons Den, Come Dine With Me, and Playr are the only things that are series linked. I'll do the same for Ashes to Ashes and Doctor Who when they come on in a few weeks.

    I presumed he was talking metaphorically and that he had ditched paying for TV and not the actual physical TV set.:o
