when i go this fall, what are some good shows that i can watch in my downtime?

(i don't watch a lot of TV)

hint, i will not be hooked on the OC or 'Friends' or any of the other crap that my buds tried to get away with out there.

Oh god, :rolleyes: and 'Smallville?'

please, i have never been that starved for entertainment!

numbers is great...

the office is hilarious but 30 minute episodes

entourage is as smooth as anything else...but like the office only 2 seasons and 30 minute episodes

west wing is great....hour episodes...every season is a full 22-24 episode season...and there are 7 seasons

Num3ers is good

Any of the CSI shows; CSI, CSI Miami and CSI New York.

Law and Order SVU

Rob and Big on MTV is totally hilarious it's a 30 minute show

24 hands down

Battlestar Galactica. Sundays 9 central. Insane drama based on a Sci-Fi setting.

You can't go wrong with 24. You won't want to stop watching it.

Take The Sopranos, or we're going to send Luca Brasi to whack you.

Oh, wait, he's dead, and from a different goombah series.

And we can't send Fredo Corleone.

I guess it'll have to Paulie "Walnuts".

depending on your type of humor, i would suggest anything from the adult swim line up on cartoon network...not so much the japanese anime, like full metal alchemist, but more so shows like sealab 2021, or aqua teen hunger force. robot chicken is hilarious too. cant go wrong with aqua teen though. my buddies and i out here all like those shows. my roomy got "lost" seasons 1 & 2 from his wife for christmas. he said it was a really good show. also, i would recomend you and a few buddies saving up now and purchasing a satellite system to have internet with. i have it in my chu, and have since i moved into it when i got sent here in july. well i didnt actully get here til august, but kuwait still sucked. anyway, i believe the satellite system itself will run you about 2000 and depending on how many people you get to hook up to it will determine the cost and how much bandwidth each person gets. pm me if you have any other questions, or email me. ill pm you my ako email addy.

8 seasons of South Park. By then, 9. SP is the single greatest show of all time.

Definitely check out Scrubs.

I'd also recommend:
South Park
The Simpsons
Family Guy
Any sitcom with Charlie Sheen (Spin City, Two and a Half Men)

older show
Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Angel

Buffy went 7 seasons Angel went 5.

Dont let the title fool you, the shows had some of the best writing in TV history. Great storylines, some of the funniest episodes ever and just all around good themes

Forgot all about that.

On that note, I'd also consider Overhaulin,' Biker Build-Off, American Chopper, and Mega Builders.

The ending was very shocking. I just wish the seasons were longer. Shell out $60 for 8 episodes hurts the wallet. :eek:

Amusing to read some of the replies.
I'll start hitting my wife up now to grab me seasons of stuff and have her mail me the discs intermittently
