Best Programs On TV At The Moment?

Johnny Gomez · 02-01-2003 9:39pm #1

The title basically speaks for itself, what are your favourite programs on TV at the moment?

I'd have to go for;
Family Guy
The Sopranos
The West Wing
Boston Public

These are the type of programs where if I miss a new episode I get annoyed and I still watch repeats, so what about everyone else?

DiscoStu · 02-01-2003 9:58pm

Pretty similar choices here

Family Guy
The Simpsons
The West Wing
Third Watch
The Office

At the moment?

Well all family guy on terrestrial tv is pure unwatchable cut to shreds ****e... it pains me to watch a quality show like that ripped to pieces by censors.

newest Simpsons are terrible... again mostly unwatchable.

Personally I'd go with

The Office
Teachers
King Of The Hill
& The Sopranos

Neil3030 · 03-01-2003 1:10am

Scrubs
Sopranos
Derren Brown/David Blaine
Raw/Smackdown
Those FBI docu-drama things on Discovery.

They are about all i watch on TV to be honest.

Same kind of list reallyof the newer shows:

Scrubs (series 2 repeated on N2 from nesxt Monday btw)
Malcolm in the middle
Family Guy
Sopranos
Teachers
6 feet under

Shows I really like but have only seen a few eps:
Boston Public (mmmm, Jeri Ryan)
West Wing

Like Kali, I think the new Simpsons are terrible & I'm probably not going to bother from here on in (saw a really old ep I'd not seen before tonight though - thank you Digiguide (recent convert))

Might pick up the new series of Enterprise - haven't watched any new Star Trek since about 1995.

Has anybody seen Takeshi's Castle on Challenge TV? This is not really the best programme, but its dead funny!! IFor those of u who haven't:

Takeshi's Castle is basically a game show in which the contestants do wild stunts that you would only find in Anime or video games. Things like swinging over a pit dangling from a vine, charging head-first through doors (some of which are thicker than others -- pick a thin one or feel the pain!), crossing a tightrope while being shot at by a volleyball cannon, staying on a moving platform as it passes under overhangs and past monsters who want to throw you off... things like that! You would not believe how much of a blast it is to see normal people trying to pole-vault over a body of water and land on a dinky floating island, or cross a bridge made of rolling logs; everyone in the theater was jumping up and down cheering for those who gave it their best shot. Some of the contestants even dressed the part; the crowd's favorite by far (who made several appearances since he got to the yearly finals) was a guy dressed as a vampire who went hopping rather than walking/running through all of the events.

Its dead funny! as said above they do all these really weird things. One of the funniest parts is the state of the contestants!! They look well funny cuz thye wear all of these really weird/funny looking clothes!! Its soooooo funny!!

Suppafly: Has anybody seen Takeshi's Castle on Challenge TV?

Takeshi's Castle rules! Have never seen anyone win a prize though! Yer man who does the voice-over (Craig Charles? From Red Dwarf) seems to be appearing on all of the second rate TV shows these days, e.g. Ripleys believe it or not, Takeshi, Robot fighting wars crap., etc..

Bit of a laugh when you've had a few anyway!

My preferences:
Scrubs
The office
Family Guy
Simpsons
SouthPark

tman · 15-01-2003 12:08pm

feck all decent stuff on tv these days:(

fast lane is looking pretty good
the new series of scrubs should be good (didn't know n2 were showing the new series yet)
can't wait for the new series of the soprano's
south park is still disgustingly funny

Kalina · 15-01-2003 8:17pm

The new series of ER is pretty good so far and the American Fear Factor!
Besides the soaps and the odd movie, and a bit of the Weakest Link with Anne theres nothing much worth watching.
