Sunday: Rome. My wife and I are absolutely hooked.

Monday: Heroes. I like it and my wife is indiffierent.

Tuesday: House. My wife and I both like it.

Wednesday: Bones. My wife likes it and I am indifferent. South Park. I like it and my wife is indifferent.

Thursday: Office, Scrubs, 30 Rock (kind of) Me: Sara Silverman, Wife: ER

Friday: Nothing

Saturday: Nothing:

For the most part, if I miss these shows it isn’t the end of the world and I don’t plan my evenings around them except for maybe Rome.

The only thing I have really gotten into lately are NBC’s solid comedies and drama: Earl, 30 Rock, Scrubs, Heroes.

I also try to catch [It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia](http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/sunny/) when I can.

I don’t go out of my way to watch anything. Never have. Never will. If I have some time to spare and am flipping around the channels I usually watch: news, documentaries, Larry King, or sometimes stand-up comedy or Jon Stewart.

I have seen Scrubs a few times. It’s OK. Apart from that I don’t think I’ve seen anything else on this list. At least not an entire episode. (Apart from Corner Gas. It’s brilliant.)

Am I alone here?

No, you’re not alone. We don’t have cable and haven’t for at least several years. I did get hooked on Heroes but watch it online and I still watch 24 out of habit. My wife likes Desperate Housewives and Grey’s Anatomy but I think that’s it. I may put the TV on if I’m bored but we’re more likely to watch movies or work/play around on the computer.

My sister brought the first season of Corner Gas down when she visited a couple years ago. I really enjoyed the show I miss no longer seeing Canadian TV.

Well, since the thread is _specifically for_ people who have things they like to watch, I’d think you’d be fairly unusual here, yeah.
