Matricians: What are you watching?

[Zenaku]

Anything goes, from anime to dramas, as long as you are watching it.

Avatar: The Last Airbender
Gundam 00
House (once the writer's strike is over...)
The Big Bang Theory (AMAZING. Partly because its nerdy, and partly because Kaley Cuoco is my goddess)

[Abominator]

I'm only watching Prison Break and Smallville nowadays...

I'll watch Lost and 24 if and when they return.

[Johncarllos]

I'll watch Heroes when it comes back.

[Abominator]

I'm officially done with Heroes.

Nothing happened in that batch of episodes.

In fact, the only things that happened happened to people I don't care about.

[Mikero]

Smallville.
House.
Heroes.
Journeyman.
Lost.
Avatar: The Last Airbender.
South Park.
Corner Gas.
Trailer Park Boys.
Keys To The VIP.
Supernatural (sometimes).
Battlestar Galactica (sometimes).
Code Monkeys (sometimes).
MTV Live.
Peep Show.
The Mighty Boosh.

Those are the ones I can say without feeling embarrassed/childish BEFORE anyone comments. Plus I can't remember others.

[Edgecrusher]

Shows I like:

- Aqua Teen Hunger Force
- The Boondocks
- The Brak Show
- Carnivale
- Dexter
- Duckman
- Entourage
- Family Guy
- Futurama
- Harvey Birdman
- Heroes
- Invader Zim
- Six Feet Under
- The Venture Bros.
- Weeds

A fair number of the shows on that list have been canceled, but I don't actually watch broadcast television, so they still count.

[Johncarllos]

Alphabetized?
Classy.

I'll also occasionally watch South Park, Family Guy, Futurama, American Dad, or the Simpsons as well.

[Mikero]

I only put returning and such shows on my list but I forgot to add Boondocks and Futurama. Is ATHF returning at all? Hope so.

[Edgecrusher]

Alphabetized?

I always do that with lists.

And yes, Aqua Teen is supposed to come back on January 20th. Supposedly there's 10 new episodes ready to go.

[Mikero]

Wicked.

I thought about alphabetizing my list but I took a ##### instead.

[orclev]

House, when the writers' strike is over with.

Degrassi, when they start airing the new episodes again in January.


So basically, I'm not actually watching ANY television currently.  :x

[AlexThePenguin]

I don't watch TV.

much.


I occasionally do when it's on when I enter a room.


Otherwise, I play DS, hang out with Ray, and work. Mostly the latter.

[Zenaku]

South Park.
Corner Gas.
Trailer Park Boys.
Keys To The VIP.
Supernatural (sometimes).
Battlestar Galactica (sometimes).
Code Monkeys (sometimes).

Corner Gas is amazing, it's such a shame I never seem to have the time to watch it...

I really have mixed feelings with Code Monkeys, it tries too hard to be video game-esque and I don't really recall it being funny.

The IT Crowd is hilarious though, even though they have $#@!#ing English accents.

[Johncarllos]

Code Monkeys is decent.
Not great, but quite watchable.

[Mikero]

With Code Monkeys it's kind of like some other shows that are stupid-comedy. Essentially it gets funnier the more you watch it. Like Aqua Teen Hunger Force. But unlike ATHF I only watch Code Monkeys online, and sporadically.

[Johncarllos]

Oh, I just flick it to G4TV when I'm bored out of my mind, and it's either Ninja Warrior, X Play, Attack of the Show, Code Monkeys, or Paid Programming.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

G4 is terrible, a real gaming channel needs to come into existence and kick G4's ass off of the air waves.

[preventerWIND]

Especially Xplay! How dare they flame ol' bluey!! >: O

anyways..

*turns head*
Seinfeld.

[Mikero]

I was watching that not seven minutes ago.

[preventerWIND]

Was it on TBS?

Oh oh, I'm sorry. "Peachtree TV"

[Zenaku]

Oh, I just flick it to G4TV when I'm bored out of my mind, and it's either Ninja Warrior, X Play, Attack of the Show, Code Monkeys, or Paid Programming.

I keep trying to watch AOTS for something funny/informative, but I always just seem to end up staring at Olivia/FakeBritishGirl's rack.

[Johncarllos]

I never watch attack of the show, I just see that it's on that channel a lot.

[Mikero]

Was it on TBS?

Oh oh, I'm sorry. "Peachtree TV"

It was.

##### Peachtree though.

[Johncarllos]

Peachtree?
Is that a Canada thing?

[preventerWIND]

It's an American thing. Damn you 'mericans, ruining a good thing.

[Mikero]

Peachtree?
Is that a Canada thing?

It's #####ing Turner #####ing up our TV. The story is basic; We used to get the main TBS station straight from Atlanta, GA.

But recently, TBS shook up their grill and decided that TBS would focus on America more broadly and they created a little pocket station. A sub-TBS that is GAA (Greater Atlanta Area)-focused. News, weather, censoring Family Guy every now and then. All those fun things that makes a person bored to suicidal measures of Georgia. What was that trash station called? Peachtree TV, because "Peachtree" apparently shows up in a lot of Atlanta street signs, duh hur huhr hurhhruhratlantahurdhuuur.

So for whatever reason, the networks decide to give us the ramrod and keep giving us our TBS (which is the one that mutated into Peachtree TV) instead of doing the smart thing and giving us network TBS so we can keep enjoying the normal entertainment we were getting anyway.

It's almost as the FOX channel I get. Used to get FOX29 (Buffalo), but now it's FOX 2 (Detroit, what) which likes to plow really shallow and horrible "news" at me. Actually FOX2 News in on my TV right now *click*

[Johncarllos]

Canada gets screwed for TV!
Why the HELL would any Canadian care about Georgia anyways!?

[Mikero]

Exactly. TBS was the bomb before this happened.

There are multiple Facebook groups about it. One something has a Facebook group about it, or DMX raps about it, you know it's real.

[ChaosVortex]

I dub it, "The Bull #####" channel. Reason?

"TBS. Very funny? BULL#####."

I don't watch TBS for comedy. I rarely watch TV anyway.

[CM]

Naruto Shippuuden

Death Note

Scrubs whenever I'm bored and it happends to be on Comedy Central.

I try to catch Xavier Renegade Angel and Robot Chicken when I can.

Shin-Chan.

Mostly shows on Cartoon Network and Comedy Cental.

Movie wise I just watched The Simpsons Movie. I'll probably watch Wedding Crashers tomorrow.

[Mikero]

TBS isn't "very" funny, but it had some dope shows like Yes, Dear and My Boys.

I'm watching South Park right now.

[ChaosVortex]

Everybody Loves Raymond. That's all I can think of that relates to comedy.

I'll leave that job for Comedy Central anyway.

[preventerWIND]

Meh, they had Seinfeld and the like, King of Queens was good for a chuckle every now and then, Friends. Peachtree has all the same shows, but they sensor ##### like Mike said, like the word bastard.. WTF?

[ChaosVortex]

I can't stand Seinfeld.

There are a few good scenes scattered about the whole show to be honest, but if you were to set me down to watch an episode of Seinfeld, I'll bet you $50 it won't even make me grin.

[preventerWIND]

Same, it's an alright show, but for a show that's about nothing. It really is about nothing, I like to watch an episode from time to time.


Festivus FTW.

[CM]

Some guy wanted to buy the 8th season of Seinfeld but I couldn't find it.

I really rarely ever buy a movie, let alone a old tv show that was only remotely funny the first time through.

[Mikero]

It's not the best show and I can see how people can't watch it more than once. It shouldn't be on as much as it is. But it really funny, more so at the time when it was new. I don't know why, but it's one of those shows I can watch over and over again, albeit without laughing out loud since I know it all. But I still enjoy it.

Maybe you had to be there.

[preventerWIND]

Odd how I start to enjoy sit-coms more often when they are canceled. I guess that's because the sit-coms today suck hard compared to the others.

Raymond is an exception.

[Mikero]

No it's not. Each episode is good maybe once or twice but it gets SO boring once you've seen the episode beyond that point. King Of Queens is pretty good and so are Yes, Dear and Still Standing. Everybody Loves Raymond gets ollllld. For me, Seinfeld and Friends are always funny.

[Johncarllos]

I hate the King of Queens. Some chick hooked up with a fat idiot. Woopty doo.

Raymond is completely predictable from the first 5 minutes of each episode.

[preventerWIND]

I hated still standing, the actors are pretty terrible IMO. And obviously Ramond is predictable. The grandparents get in the way, yep. But it's always good for a couple of laughs.

[Johncarllos]

Peter Boyle was the only reason to watch it.
Fun fact: Peter Boyle (Ray's 'dad') played the monster in "Young Frankenstein."

[preventerWIND]

Yeah, I heard he died as well, 'tis true?

[Johncarllos]

Ah, 'tis true.
He died back in August I think, it wasn't too recently, but it was mid '07.

[preventerWIND]

Durn, that sucks. He was an awesome actor, heh..

[Johncarllos]

Hilarious man, I've seen some of his other work, though I forget what it actually was.

[Mikero]

He died right after the show ended. Within a couple months.

Still Standing is pretty funny. Not great acting but it's not a drama so it doesn't really matter, they act their characters up to standard. I love that the parents are like... bad people, but have a loving family. It's kind of like Married With Children except the family wants to be a family their all just messed up.

Since King Of Queens isn't about the fact that a good looking girl married a fat guy (especially since she got huge when the actress, Leah Remini, got pregnant and then had to lose a bunch of weight) I don't really see Carllos' point. The show is pretty funny, Arthur (Jerry Stiller) is hilarious.

Like every friggin' Raymond episode is basically "Deborah says something. Ray does something about it which Deborah thinks is wrong. They fight. One of the kids comes in and they pretend not to fight and Deborah makes a comment about how daddy is stupid/lazy. Ray's parents come over. They fight. Robert comes over. They fight. Amy comes over. Robert and Amy leave. Deborah and Ray fight. Ray's parents fight. Ray's parents leave. Deborah and Ray fight." rinse repeat for like ten years. Somewhere in the midst of that Ally says some "funny" innocent kid thing and Ray's dad says something funny about hating his wife and/or bodily functions.

[Johncarllos]

Preeeetty much.
There's another thing I didn't like about the show, the kids never leave their room. There is a family and it's like the kids are the pets, they don't have to be there if they aren't funny.
That pissed me off. What the hell can a couple of kids do upstairs for so long!? I hope it's videogames.

[Mikero]

That's kind of true. I'd say the kids never leave the house more than their rooms. There's the episodes that are more about them though, we're they'll go around, but I know what you mean.

But it's funny you say that and then say a "couple" of kids, that shows how much they aren't in the show normally since they actually have three kids! Haha!

[Johncarllos]

I've never seen all three at once, I knew about the twin boys, and completely forgot about the girl.
