That show and The Big Bang theory are both awesome. Sage for off topicness.

I think you mean, 'almost nothing' to watch on TV.

>>26878941

Both shows are fucking awful dreck.

>>26878947

Fuck yes.

Burn Notice and Breaking Bad.

There is good stuff to watch...

-Fairly Oddparents... oh wait, Poof's a mainstay now... NM
-Avatar, oh wait, the show ended...
-Lost... I got nothing on that one...
-Two and a Half Men... forget I said that...
-Venture Bros!

Gotcha there!

I don't like slice of life, even when they're seinen with a hint of sexism.

>>26878941
Those two shows are awful generic sitcoms where every episode is the same, and they're stretched on forever.

That's what I love about a lot of anime; the shows run a couple seasons and tell a contained story that ends. American TV needs more of that.

The last live action I watched was Star Trek.

>>26878971

Stargate Universe

The only thing I watch on TV are sports games with the occational Venture Brothers

>>26878876
Nothing good on TV now...

*goes back to watching Strike Witches*

Pretty much. I think syndication has ruined anything good on to watch, now if television was more based on mini-series I'd be more interested.

I only watch anime, however, I know that there's stuff worth watching on TV. There's House, and always Law and Order.

And since the NBA season is starting I may start watching some of the Laker games.

>>26878983
You're right, I love Breaking Bad. Haven't watched it lately, going to torrent second season.

It's not worth the subscription fee to have a TV service just to watch Breaking Bad and Venture Brothers.

Even though I don't watch much anime, I'd say there is more of it that's almost worth watching each year then anything on domestic TV.

House is good.

>>26879013
I missed the last two episodes, after the desert planet. What happened?

>>26879065
>>26879065

Watch Glee. Problems solved.

../a/ watches anime?

>>26878985
>-Venture Bros!

What about the ungodly waiting gap between seasons?

>>26879065

not really.

Watching:

Dexter
LOST
Big Bang Theory
Heroes
Simpsons
Family Guy
Entourage

I wish a few of them would end though.

>>26879061
>>26879065
>>26879059
That's just it. American TV, as well as ALL TV is very sparse. There are a few good things to watch, and you can get them on the internet.

>>26879078

They run out of power
nothings happening
nothings happening
okay now they're flying into the sun

>>26879013
This

House, Dexter, Big Bang and How I Met Your Mother.

I turn on the TV once every few days. I don't watch much TV on the TV anymore.

>>26878991
>That's what I love about a lot of anime; the shows run a couple seasons and tell a contained story that ends. American TV needs more of that.

This. A thousand times this.

>>26879126
I actually buy the shows I like. I bought Breaking Bad off of Amazon and then didn't download it, just because I don't pay for TV and those fuckers deserve money.

FRIENDS

>>26879013

If I hear Lt jesus pray one more time
and Col Cripple sure wasted that stone-trip back to earth
love Hooters though

South Park
reruns of some older shows

That's about all I watch. It's not that I don't like the shows airing nowadays, it's just that I've never heard of them and I'm not interested enough to research to find out about them.

>(or wherever you are, especially in the Philippines)

Goddamn ABS-CBN and their stupid telenovelas.

At least Animax has Inuyasha: The Final Act...

>>26879138
Shit, they left it on a cliffhanger? I hope they survive the encounter with the sun, and hopefully only suffer minimal casualties, preferably background cast that've had no lines save for that ep.

>>26879150

Haven't tried BBT but I like the other three.

I'm only watching SGU because it's pretty much the only actual sci-fi on TV right now. And that's a shame.

Anyways, Breaking Bad and The Office for me. That's about it. Lost sometimes, too (I just wait until a season is over to watch through it)

I stopped watching tv half way through high school.

>>26879219

no no, it was a two parter, the cliffhanger was at the end of the first one. it's all resolved now

I watch House and Scrubs.

Offtopic, polite sage.

>>26878941
I couldn't get into BBT, and I would rather watch Strike Witches and let my standards die slowly than sit through Leonard on the screen (and I thought Konata was annoying).

I watch Monk every week.

>>26879284
So they're back on the road to being Voyager'd? ...great

>>26879084

I don't understand the appeal of this show at all

>>26879273
But anon, it's only mid-fall

>>26879218
Philippines has TV? SHOKU

I watched californication a whiole ago but got bored of it.

The Big Bang Theory, Fringe and The Mentalist here

I still watch Friends and My Name is Earl

>>26879306

Bones, 30 Rock, and House whenever I can remember.

>>26879218
Does Channel 5 still air new anime? I wouldn't know since I don't really watch TV unless it's news

>>26879218
>Inuyasha: The Final Act.

No thank you...

>>26879556
Last time I checked (read: 2 months ago), Channel 5 played FMA Brotherhood and Code Gayass, and Toradora.

Breaking bad house is about it

>>26878876
>Since there's nothing good or not that much good stuff to watch on American TV these days

Watch Needless, problem solved...

>>26878876
>Two and a Half Men

Rachel is 3DPD, but a hot 3DPD.

Dexter, How I Met Your Mother...and that's it.

Football, college football, older games of football.

Oh, and rugby.

>>26879025
>Strike Witches

>>26879878
You wouldn't call someone disgusting if you call her "hot" as well

I mostly watch House, Southpark and some other crap.

But i tend to just flip through the channels until i find something that looks interesting, mainly the movie channels though.

>>26879450
>>26879185
Speaking of Friends...

the last non-anime show I watched was the Sopranos, which was awesome BTW

>>26878876
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3pC39BkBZc
Around 1:41 mark... here's your reason.

>>26880778
Low-quality writing
Low-quality animation
Low-quality music...

Yeah...

>>26881019
>implying MD Geist is bad

OH U

I watch travel channel's anthony bourdain.

I travel vicariously through him.

Stargate is the only american tv show I still watch.

About the only thing on American TV that I had the remotest interest in watching was Stargate Universe, and after the last episode, I give up on it. Don't know why I didn't drop it after they killed that one guy off even though they could have just flown one of those camera balls into the room.
Oh, well. I hope the remake of V doesn't suck, but I'm not holding my breath, either.

Malcolm in the fucking middle.

I don't care what you say, /a/
I watch Gossip Girl.

Its Always Sunny in Philly

best show on TV

>>26881216
I did give this show a chance, it was alright, until my friends introduced me to something better.

House and Always Sunny are musts.

Occasionals are Bones, Fringe, Lie to me*, and South Park.

Holy fucking shit, FOX is cleaning up their act. Ltm* and Fringe better both get third seasons.

>>26878876
He grew up and it became two and two thirds of men

I only follow a few shows on American TV, because most of it is shit. But let's face it, I usually only follow a couple animu each season because most of it is also shit.

Other than anime, I also enjoy America's Best Dance Crew.

Season 4 was bullshit, by the way.

I watch the Big Bang Theory because I'm a physics grad student and I know losers like that in real life.

But this is not an /a/ thread, therefore sage.

I used to be a film and TV buff and watched even indie french arthouse productions, but I don't even watch mainstream movies or even go to the cinema because of anime and manga... there's just too much of it.

So far I've completed around 500+ anime and 300+ manga, in addition to ongoing stuff I don't really have time for anything besides that and perhaps browsing /a/.

there is a serious lack of greenman in this thread

>>26878876
Well I personally like the following:

Lost
Supernatural
Heroes (it's improving a lot lately)
Castle

And I would probably watch Smallville out of sheer boredom, that's about it though.

>>26881351
>FOX is cleaning up their act

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia & The Office are pretty solid /b/ style humor

>>26881519

>>26881731
>/b/ style humor

Yeah, this thread needs to die.

>>26881694
Dollhouse is gonna get at least one more season, Jossfag.

>>26881731
>The Office
>/b/ style

No, just no.

House

>>26881763
>Implying dollhouse isn't shit
I'd rather another season of sarah connor.

>>26881763
Bringing back memories of Firefly ;____;

flash forward
always sunny
heroes
american dad
fringe
breaking bad

If I remember correctly from all the /tv/ threads /a/'s had in the past...

/a/ mostly watches Scrubs, House, Dexter and shows otherwise similar to those three.

>>26881754

>>26881647
Heroes was shit after the first, well written season. Second could have been good but strike killed it and the third season which was basically trying to erase the second season's unfinished characters. Plus Arthur Patrelli was a retarded god mode bastard.

At least Sylar made the 2nd and 3rd watchable, and Hiro and Ando. I basically will continue watching until those 3 get old

>>26881647
Mainstream faget.

>Ctrl-F

>Search; Dexter

>4 results

/a/, I am not disappoint.

HEROES = CODE GEASS
HEROES = CODE GEASS
HEROES = CODE GEASS
HEROES = CODE GEASS

IT'S ALL THE SAME SHIT

>>26881854
I used to like Scrubs but I came to the sudden realization its the same shit over and over and that the entire female cast is annoying and samey as fuck and half of the gags aren't actually funny

Makes me feel like more of a faggot when I have these realisations because I used to enjoy it

Supernatural is my favorite show on TV currently. It has awesome rock music and badass monster killing. The bad thing is the horrible yaoi fangirls the show brings in.

>>26881946
Agreed, first season was fan-fucking-tastic, second and third were pretty average/shitty, and this season is okay so far, although this whole "NOW SYLAR IS A GOOD GUY, NO WAIT HE'S BAD, NOPE JUST SORTA GOOD" is fucking irritating, just give him his memory back and let him kill everyone.

Remember the last episode of season 3 when he cold heartidly slit Nathan's throat? More of that, please.

>>26881946
While the villains are still questionable, the consensus seems to be that 4th Season is going really well.

Tomorrow night, Sylar fucks Matt's wife with Matt's cock. Yeah, try to not watch it now.

>>26881981
I need to catch up on it. I raged hard at myself when I found out John Lithgow is in Season 4.

Just to throw out shows I plan to watch soon/waiting for new season:

Weeds
Eastbound and Down
30 Rock
Community
Curb Your Enthusiasm

O
O
O
O
OSHIKURU

I watch Desperate Housewives, Supernatural (I'm behind a season, though), NCIS, NCIS:LA and Community. It's not all awful.

I only watch anime because I consider anyone who watches 3D shit a normalfag.

>>26882057
>Sylar fucks Matt's wife with Matt's cock.
This is what I'm fucking talking about, how I love that evil bastard.

>>26882018
Scrubs was a serious and touching comedy it's first 3 seasons. Perhaps one of the best.

The problem is that after that, they went all whatever, let's just make it all gag after gag.. make JD progressively gayer and only make those good serious and touching episodes every once in a while.

I still enjoyed it all the way through, but it was just never the same as the first three seasons.

>>26882073

>Desperate Housewives

>not all awful

Walk into heavy traffic.

I'm marathoning House right now, actually. Partway through season 2. I downloaded it. I'd buy it but $50 a season? Fuck that.

>>26882097
Scrubs = The Simpsons.

I do agree that most TV is absolute shit but I do find a few shows to be excellent.
Dexter
30 Rock
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Mad Men
Breaking Bad

Don't really follow any show other than those.

No American TV show is good because American TV shows don't have set endings. They all go on too long.

>>26882109
I've never watched Desperate Housewives... How is it? Would I be wrong to assume that it's literally about desperate housewives? 'Cause that would be boring as heck.

>>26882109
Desperate Housewives is actually pretty funny. I was expecting it to be complete female only PERIODS AND HANDBAGS shit like Sex in the City but it surprised me. I enjoy it

>>26882109
Watch it before you judge

>>26882110
house really suprised me.

of course black adder was amazing, as was a bit of fry and laurie. and it shows in house.

>>26882091
>>26882057
>>26882055
>>26881946

Kill Claire and I can assure you the show will be 100x better than what it currently is, I fucking hate that little bitch, the only reason they keep her in is to keep the jailbait lovers watching since she looks like a 12 year old.

>>26882091
The writers seemed to figure out along the way that Sylar is the best character on the show. Right now, he's in two places at once.

Sylar in Season 2 & 3 spent too much time figuring out who he is, which is a fine subject, but too long in the process. Sylar's back to being a monster cock-bag, now.

HEROES = CODE GEASS

>>26882307
>>26881999
Well I liked CG's first season, the second was shit until the last 2 episodes, which redeemed it, Heroes isn't THAT bad.

>>26882272
The writers already knew he was awesome, they just wanted to have more villains, and failed.

They should go off to Zimbabwe or whatever and fight that black guy again

>>26882307
I heard you the first time. Someday you'll explain it. lol, I love acting like I know you know what you're talking about.

I suddenly thought of a great idea for a sitcom star.

I watch 30 rock and HImyM. I don't care much for the serious shows

>>26882217
Think about your neighbors and all the crazy impossible shit you imagine them doing (i.e. murder and covering it up, keeping an unknown retard child chained in their basement, keeping your their husband in a freezer in the basement), but you know never really happens because shit like that doesn't happen in real life.

Desperate Housewives makes that stuff happen with generally pleasing results.

>>26882413
>They should go off to Zimbabwe or whatever and fight that black guy again

The guy who died?

>>26882431
If Kubo knew about the hijinks we'd plan for him he'd do it because he's a boss

He would be the Japanese Fonz and the greatest thing 4chan ever had a hand in

>>26882446
I was tempted to watch it due to how awesome Nathan Fillion is, and I heard he got a part in it.

>>26882446
Ah, so it's a shocker/thriller series involving crime and whatnot?
Wow. Wouldn't have seen that coming.

>>26882516
No the guy whose name was something awesome like Admiral Zanzibar or something, let me look it up

>>26882555
no its not its a drama/comedy

>>26882307

>>26882529
Who knows, maybe his upcoming manga, "F**k, I Am Awesome", will eventually get a TV show adaption?

>>26882705
Oh, okay.

>>26882537
Yeah. he's the son in the family that just moved onto the street. He's an interesting character that'll probably be getting more screentime as the season goes on.

Other than The Office, nope.

>>26882797
Could you tell me what season he first comes in on? I've watched most of the others, at random point over the past couple of years so I know the general premise.

Dexter, Heroes, True Blood, Glee, and So You Think You Can Dance.

I am the manliest man.

>>26882839
Season 6, the current one.

movies sports and history channel maybe some old macgyver re runs or ncis thats about it for tv besides anime.

my favorite show is so you think you can die in a fire
