Favorite TV show? (i.e. what's on your TIVO?)

Thread Starter 
I have TIVO...(a.k.a. Digital Video Recorder) which has become indispensable in watching T.V. I no longer watch T.V. in real time...with Tivo, you can stop, pause, rewind or fast forward whatever you are watching as long as it is either pre-recorded or delayed. I was watching some of my shows and wondered what programs head-fiers watch.

Here is my list...I stick to silly, funny stuff.
MXC (a.k.a. Most Extreme Elimination Challenge) on Spike TV (ABSOLUTELY HYSTERICAL; combination of America's Funniest Home Videos + Beavis & Butt Head + South Park)

Yes, Dear
King of Queens
Will & Grace
Punk'd (MTV)
Pimp My Ride (MTV)
The Lost World (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle); Canadian & Australian joint project being shown on TNT
Six Feet Under
The Apprentice
Big Brother
Desperate Housewives
Star Trek: Next Generation & Voyager
Flip This House
Flip That House
Antiques Road Show
Cash in The Attic (BBC America)
Deal or No Deal
World Poker Tour
Celebrity Poker Showdown
Other Poker and Blackjack Shows
EWTN programming in general
CNN Headline News
VH1 & MTV

So, WHAT programs do YOU guys like to watch?...just curious...
especially for Americans with cable or satellite TV (btw, I have Dish network).

I don't have a PVR, but I do download shows if I can't see them when they are on. Anyway, the only shows I make a point of watching are 24, Prison Break, Lost, Smallville, and The Amazing Race...and at this point of the year, the NHL playoffs, even though the Canucks missed the post season

Currently in the middle of season 3 of 24. Thats really it. I'll try catch new Simpsons on Sunday, but I'll never go out of my way to watch it.

I love these shows, but can't seem to get myself in front of the TV when they're on...so it's DVD for me! No Tivo/ReplayTV here

The Shield
Lost
Veronica Mars
Battlestar Galactica
Alias (the first 4 seasons at least)

Battlestar Galactica is pretty much the only TV show I watch. And then only on DVD since it'd be pretty retarded to pay $40 a month for one show.

Though when cable is available, I like CNN and the Food Network.

I don't have cable tv (only cable modem) so it limits the shows that I can watch within the regular means but here are the shows that I make a concerted effort to watch

Monday-Nothing
Tuesday-House
Wednesday-Amazing Race
Thursday-Smallville, The Office
Sunday-Simpsons

Here's the only shows I watch. I don't watch as much TV as I used to.

1. Arrested Development (though it's not coming back)
2. The Shield (I think it's in its last season)
3. 24 (silly fun, enjoyable if you don't think too much)
4. The Simpsons (this season seems to be improving after about a 10 year slump)
