Post by: BubbleBoy on July 19, 2009, 09:57:21 PM: I like most if not all of the shows on TBS from 3 PM to the end of Family Guy (Friends being my least favorite). I sometimes watch Scrubs on Comedy Central. I also enjoy watching Man Vs. Wild on Discovery with my mom on occasion.

Post by: sk on July 19, 2009, 10:12:45 PM: All time: Alias, Arrested Development (bring it back!), Firefly, Life, Mission: Impossible, Stargate Atlantis, The Unit (bring it back!)

Current: 24 (especially the earlier seasons), Big Bang Theory, Fringe, Lost, Merlin, Wipeout. And although it's currently being acquired by Sony, I've generally liked Bananas (Christian comedians are hit and miss, but their choices are generally pretty good).

Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Voyager
How could you include TNG (awesome) and Voyager (decent) and leave out TOS (great)?

My others would include: The Andy Griffith Show, Get Smart, MacGyver, The Cosby Show, Animaniacs (especially Pinky & the Brain), Babylon 5.

Post by: juhnkect on July 20, 2009, 02:06:06 PM: I love Scrubs! And Arrested Development. sadly, it's over after only 3 season, but you can find them on hulu. great writing. Robot Chicken can be good too.

I'd have to say family guy trumps them all though...

Post by: drb1200 on July 20, 2009, 04:14:06 PM: I find it disturbing that "christians" waste their money and time on shows like "Family Guy" and "Robot Chicken" when they could be doing something constructive. [/rant]

Post by: Alex_Olijar on July 20, 2009, 05:06:01 PM: I'm currently addicted to One Tree Hill (high school only for the most part. Season 5 was ok and 6 is sorta lame to me.)

I am a man, just in case there were any doubts. :)

I find it disturbing that "christians" waste their time on the internet discussing trivial matters when they could be doing something constructive. ::)

Title: Re: Television?
Post by: The Guardian on July 20, 2009, 06:35:13 PM: C'mon now, it is okay to hold the opinion that certain TV shows are fine to watch just as it is okay for others to disagree. No one has said "You're a bad person if you watch this show" but rather that they don't approve of said shows.

Keep it civil, thank you. :)
Title: Re: Television?
Post by: Colin Michael on July 20, 2009, 08:35:26 PM: Arrested Development is incredible.

Family Guy is deconstructive in that it is post modern.

In the other sense of the word, isn't all Television aconstructive?
Title: Re: Television?
Post by: Alex_Olijar on July 20, 2009, 09:41:12 PM: Arrested Development is the most amazing show ever created. I can't wait for the movie in 2010.

Post by: Clarinetguy097 on July 21, 2009, 06:21:45 PM: The first time I watched Robot Chicken I was in a hotel in Memphis. I don't find it as disturbing as some of the other c*** on TV.
Title: Re: Television?
Post by: FresnoRedemption on July 22, 2009, 02:31:21 PM: Well, I'm a hardcore Trekkie, so my favorite shows are all the Star Trek shows. I even recently picked up The Animated Series and it was wonderful.

My favorite non-Star Trek shows would be: Monk, Psych, and MythBusters.
