What  is your favorite TV channel both on the regular TV and on cable.  Even though TV sucks right now... there is at least something to watch... you are still paying for your TV.

Regular TV:  Fox and maybe ABC... NBC is OK, but it gets boring.

Cable: Not much too choose... I usually watch a good movie or something.  FX is pretty good, USA is not bad.  I also like the WGN Network, the N, ABC Family, Disney, etc.

Currently, CBS has all the good sitcoms, but for late night, it has to be NBC

Cable channels?  TVTropolis and Peachtree TV.  The only tow I watch regularly

I agree with you, but ABC does not have that bad shows either... I don' think these Dancing With The Stars shows get kinda dry too.

I rarely watch broadcast TV, but when I do, it's usually Food Network

HGTV

What the F***... you must be boring!!!

What the F***... you must be boring!!!



...and that's probably why you don't get the girls.

If you don't like the answers, you shouldn't have asked in the first place.

HGTV


I love HGTV.  It gives me great ideas on decorating my house, although I have yet to use them. ;D

Lately it's been A&E...I dig The First 48.  Watched a little CSI: Miami last night too.  New episode of TF48 tonight! :)

What the F***... you must be boring!!!




really now? How is watching TV shows that give you great decorating ideas and such for your home....a boring thing?  HA...this coming from a boy with an Eminem avatar...for shame. ::)


...and that's probably why you don't get the girls.

If you don't like the answers, you shouldn't have asked in the first place.


thank you my dear ,Henk. :)

thank you my dear ,Henk. :)


You're very welcome.  :)

I've been around this board long enough to know that you're anything but boring.

...and that's probably why you don't get the girls.

If you don't like the answers, you shouldn't have asked in the first place.


How did you know that?  Haven't you seen me posting any threads about not getting girls or something?  Hmmmm?

Yeah why are you all picking on me.... do I post borin threads?

Yeah why are you all picking on me.... do I post borin threads?



You just told someone they must be f***in boring. Did you expect thunderous applause for that remark?

What the F***... you must be boring!!!


Some of us actually like to watch shows about how to maintain and decorate our homes or gardens. Me thinks donnie darko Blackjack needs to lighten up a bit.  ::)

TVLAND :)

Yeah why are you all picking on me.... do I post borin threads?



No, but you assume another member's boring by the channel they choose to watch.  ::)

Yeah why are you all picking on me.... do I post borin threads?



No, you're just kind of just overreacting. If you're being funny, then use a smiley face; if you're not being funny, then don't use a smiley face. Usually this helps people not get their feelings hurt when you include "what the F***, you must be boring" in a sentance. Even then, that statement is just not very nice, no matter how you say it.

Regular networks: PBS (various shows - Charlie Rose, Nova, American Experience) Fox (for the Simpsons and Family Guy), NBC (for the Office, Scrubs, Jay Leno).

Cable TV:  TLC, Gameshow Network, Sci-Fi channel, Discovery Channel, VH1 Classics, USA, TBS, TNT, Hallmark, AMC, ABC Family Channel, etc.

Premium: HBO, Encore Love Stories, Turner Classic Movies.

A&E,Bravo,Co- Tru tv,Discovery channels,TLC,Fox,ESPN to name a few.

Ohh, yeah, I like A & E a lot, but I have a feeling it's not as good as it was 10-15 years ago. I also like Bravo. I miss watching "Inside The Actor's Studio"

A music channel here called Alt TV (http://alttv.co.nz/AltTv/)

Blows all other music channels away with their selection of music (not just top 40 stuff), and the fact that they are just music. Nothing else (unlike all the other "music" stations)

How did you know that?  Haven't you seen me posting any threads about not getting girls or something?  Hmmmm?


Well, admit it: this...


What the F***... you must be boring!!!


...is one helluva pickup line. That's how I knew.

But seriously: of course I can't tell if you get the girls or not from just one remark. Just like you can't tell someone's boring from just one post - or at least, you shouldn't be. Especially if that someone has been around here for years and has made lots of friends. New friends are always welcome, but you're not making any by posting these remarks.

And for the record: I'm not picking on you.

You kind of invite it on yourself don't you?

Me thinks donnie darko Blackjack needs to lighten up a bit.  ::)


see I knew I wasn't the only one who thought this!

The tv addict chimes in...

I watch the big 4 for original programming ABC, CBS, FOX & NBC (alphabetically speaking) plus TNT & USA 
I DETEST THE CW (THEY CANCELED Veronica Mars! WHY DID THEY CANCEL Veronica Mars?!?)


When I am not on these channels... I mean when my tv isn't on these channels its constantly searching for rerun tv.
FX for King of the Hill
TV Land (Desiging Women, Leave it to Beaver, All in the Family)
Toon Nick
The women channels Lifetime, Lifetime movie, Real Women
Fox Reality
Chiller for Alfred Hitchcock presents
NBA tv for Basketball

oh yeah... and like my friend Quirk...
I watch TLC, FineLiving (for I Want That!) and HGTV!!!

If I'm watching TV, it is usually one of the Discovery Channels, History Channels or home improvement channels.

I tend to enjoy watching things I can learn something from rather than mere entertainment shows, although I do like CSI: Vegas, Criminal Minds, Friday Night Lights, Las Vegas.

The CW is not that bad...never even watch Veronica Mars.  The My Network TV station is basically utter crap... basically it's poor mans FOX.

I like HGTV, Travel Channel, Discovery Channel, and Animal Planet.

Dawn Ostroff president of CW said that forming a new network (out of two existing ones WB & UPN) was like rebuilding a train while it was running full steam ahead....


She ran that train right off the track... first of all...

the network only introduced two new shows and the one they had the most promise for Runaway- was canceled after 2 or 3 episodes. This sent the message early on that they didn't support their own shows and weren't willing to take a chance on them.

secondly...
no one ever figured out, definitively, on what channel the new CW network would air.  In some markets the CW aired on the old WB channels in other areas it aired on the old UPN channels...

people didn't know where to find their shows...
other people didn't get the network at all...

in Santa Barbara, Directv carried the WB but not UPN so when the channels merged they went to the UPN channel which I didn't get.
I am an uberfan though...so as much as I love Directv. I paid $25 a month...just so I could continue to watch Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars every week... I watched other shows like Supernatural.. but I was paying for the two shows mentioned.... I was said when Gilmore Girls was cancelled but Veronica Mars deserved better treatment. I was a good show, well written, with devoted fans. To ignore the fans is like slapping them in the face and I refuse to support a network who has no respect for the fans...

I agree with Coqueta83.  I like National Geographic, Discovery, and HomeGarden.  Love Survivorman and the other show with the guy named Bear who survives in the middle of nowhere.
Not a fan of Animal Planet though. 

When I had Dish (I don't now since they screwed us over and I have no job and never will again) I would watch Boomerang. That was the best damn station on at the time even though they didn't play much Looney Tunes cartoons.

But maybe with the WGA Strike, things may change....

The Speed Channel.

Unfortunately, I don't get it anymore.  :\'(

LOGO channel for the alternative lifestyles

LOGO channel for the alternative lifestyles


there's some good stuff on LOGO

I am a huge supporter of the CBC. So I have to say that I love CBC and all it's other channels.

But for cable, I gotta say that Showcase and The Movie Network have some great original programming. I love TVtropolis though, for all the good, old shows.

Showcase after dark 8)

Showcase also shows lots of CSI.  I used to watch all the time until I started getting the CSI DVDs

Showcase after dark 8)


Yeah, but that's nothing. On SuperÉcran (the francophone version of The Movie Network), there is actual hardcore porn on after dark. I was shocked. My buddy has satellite, and he was like 'I don't want to watch SÉ because it's all porn at this hour'. I was thinking the Skinemax sort of softcore stuff. But nope. I couldn't have been more wrong.

I like Disney Channel, HGTV, the MLB network, and TLC (mainly for "What Not To Wear"). As for regular broadcast tv, I'm not sure if I have a favourite network.

VH1 Classic
Boomang





Sometimes:

Cartoon Network/Adult Swim
Disney XD (whenever I'm interested on watching  "Phineas & Ferb or "Jimmy Two Shoes"
Nicktoons Network
MTV2
Fuse

Rarely watch Comedy Central

I could never pick one favorite.  I like the network channels of course, plus VH1 and VH1 Classic, LOGO, Oxygen, Lifetime, The History Channel, Smithsonian, NatGeo, and yes, MTV. 

I have Freeview and these are my favourite channels on the service:


BBC 1
BBC 2

4Music - a music station from Channel 4 that launched on 15th August 2008. It broadcasts music videos, music documentaries, themed countdown shows, 'The Friday Night Project' and 'The Sunday Night project'
TMF - an entertainment channel that broadcasts music videos, Nick Jr shows (7-9am) and MTV programming such as 'Cribs,' 'Pimp My Ride' and 'Hogan Knows best'

Channels I liked when my parents had Sky Digital or extra Virgin Media channels:

Nick Toons - mostly for SpongeBob SquarePants
Pop - a unisex children's channel. Programmes I watched on there included 'Ruby Gloom,' 'Pop Party,' 'Tupu' and 'Fraggle Rock.'
Pop Girl - Pop's sister channel that is aimed at a female audience. My favourite shows on that channel included 'Mew Mew Power,' 'Lola and Virginia,' '6teen' and 'Pop Party.'
Tiny Pop - Pop's sister channel aimed at younger children. I watched Tiny Pop for 'Care Bears,' 'My Little Pony' and 'The New Adventures of Madeline'
Music channels such as The Box, Smash Hits, MTV Hits, Magic and Q.
