There are two television shows I never miss. The Unit, and Iron Chef America. Tonights episode of Iron Chef is going to be the first difficult one to watch for me, because I can't stand 3/4 of the "matched team" Mega Spectacular chef line-up. I hate Paula Deen , Tyler Florence, and Robert Irvine. At least Cat Cora is alright. She's got a cool name, has talent, and is kinda hot.

The secret ingredient is: Holiday Deserts.

:sleep

Good grief, it's bound to be a nearly perfect storm of suckishness. Still, I must watch.

Well, this episode sucks really bad so far. I don't even know what they are making. What guy wants to make Holiday Deserts. . . ever?

Oh, and History Channel is almost always good. It's not a show, though. Whoops, it's back on.

Damages

I still haven't watched that. It's an F/X show, right?

I just hope it doesn't involve the mechanics of making a fuckin cup cake, because this damn "desert episode" of Iron Chef is killing me right now!

I've never seen The Golden Girls, personally. That's kinda a girl show, though. As is this janky Iron Chef episode tonight. I need to go drink beers after this.

I keep missing No Reservations. I know a girl who has been trying to drag me to go see Bourdain talk at a local bar Monday night. I'm not going, but he's seems alright to me.

Iron Chef tonight: Sucked! Going for beers.

Good night, all.

I will always watch the seventies shows if they are on. Starsky & Hutch, Streets of San Francisco, Dukes of Hazard, Magnum PI, Kojak, Quincy and the one and only "Oh, and just one more thing" Columbo.

Before my time, but great shows all the same :)

The only shows I watch all the time are Dirty sexy money, Survivor and Kid nation. They are all on On Demand, so if I miss it I can just watch it whenever. Oh, and I watch a lot of Howard Stern on On Demand as well

The one and only original UK version was so much better, I saw both, without Ricky Gervais it just didn't seem right to me!

CBS's Moday night lineup f/ 8-10. Which they always take away and add, but current is:
How I Met Your Mother
Big Bang Theory
Two & A Half Men
Rules Of Engagement.
Also, never miss The Shield, and I could watch South Park, M*A*S*H*, & All In The Family anytime their on.
and yes No Reservations is good. Anthony Bourdain seems like the kind of guy you could hang with and drink alot of beer.

Actually the US adaptation is quite good, considering how adaptations of other shows have failed. The only thing the US version is missing is originality, for obvious reasons; it is funny though!

I suppose you have to be American to like it after the original. I personally thought it wasn't anywhere near as good the original, but maybe yous didn't appreciate the dry humour in the UK version as much.

I'm very surprised more people on this forum don't watch Project Runway. Being a New York based show and full of charactors, I figured many would include it. In fact there is very little in the area of 'creative" type shows listed by anyone.

I would tend to disagree, all though the guy who plays the boss in the US version is OK, those "cringe worthy" moments, although they varied from series to series were not nearly as prominent and realistic as Ricky’s original take on them. As I said I feel the main thing that was missing was the presence of Ricky himself, he kind of made the show for me, literally and figuratively speaking!

I'm a time-shifter, so I will watch many of the shows
listed, but just not at their designated time.

Do so via DVR, Tivo, On-Demand, renting the shows, etc.

I also dislike comercials. :wink:
