To date, i own seasons 1-5 on dvd, and am eagerly awaiting season 6.
So! what, if any prgrammes are you lot obsessive about? Or just like enough to make sure you never miss an episode?

Ahhhh, Twin Peaks! I was absolutely glued to that programme! Wish they would do a complete rerun. Sadly, I have a problem with C4 where i live - its fuzzy, and i need to buy a new aerial. Very annoying, as a lot of my fave programmes are from there! Also, i cant get C5, and i so want to watch CSI.

R2: Yop, that's the teletubie I was talking about.... I thought we were talking Entertainment only... Sports; F1 and Champ car, that goes without saying...Never miss those, although I usually do something else at the same time when the US based serie does litlle circles....I HATE ovalls...Rally and lower series too, when it's on. Never Nascar. Never monster trucks or motocross... Every four years, the World Cup. No other sports. Ever. Can't stand the olympics and all that...

I don't watch much television... catch the FIA F1 World Championship Parade. (Its like the event from Pasadena on New Year's Day --LOL)
My wife is utterly dedicated to West Wing / ER. We sit and watch CBC's "22 Minutes", "Red Green"and "Air Farce" with my daughter as 'political science' night... also there is a new series called "An American in Canada" which is hilarious.
We actually went to visit The Great Northern Hotel at Snoqualmie, Wash. and the town featured as "Twin Peaks"... had some damn fine cherry pie and joe at the diner. Also the show "Northern Exposure" was shot just over the pass from there.
Things have gone downhill for me ever since those seven stranded castaways were found. The Beverly Hillbillies... The Munsters The (original) Addams Family A really weird little daytime sketch series called "Love, American Style" That Girl (Marlo) Get Smart
Game seven of any series.
The Sex Files, on Discovery is actually pretty good.
Most of the shows I've worked on are on YTV or Family Channel.... Mentors, Incredible Story Studio, 2030CE, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (TV Series), and I only did occasional work on Jake & The Kid, and Destiny Ridge, so don't blame me.

If you get the discovery channel watch monster garage. It has the lgendary bike builder Jesse james take some vehicle and transform it into something else for under 3,000 bucks. he gets a new team every weekend. This week they had Kyle petty's stock car and made it a street sweeper, and had to drive it at least 150mph. They converted a Chevy Suburban into a wedding chapel with retractible floor and a working pipe organ. IT is a very fun and creative show.

As BBC Prime is showing "Last of the Summer Wine" and today's episode is when Compo dies (he really did die during the making of the previous episode) and I did my Mika Hakkinen impression, although not in the bushes. It has to be.
Only Fools and Horses; Dads Army; Last of the Summer Wine; Any Football match with Millwall or when Manchester United lose; Animal Hospital (the one from Pekham not the Salford one)

Don't really have enough time to watch as much TV as I would like, but I try never to miss ER. Was hooked on X-Files for years, but thought it went downhill in the end, and also the Swiss channel that broadcasts it here totally messed up the programming. They would change the times each week, sometimes show two episodes one after the other, even three sometimes, and mess up the sequence of the episodes. It really killed the pleasure in the end....
I'll check out some good documentaries when they are on, and there the Swiss TV provides some real quality. As does France2 (Srrh, I'm sure you are familiar with Envoyer Special).
As for sports, I'll watch just about anything with a motor, but try never to miss CART, F1, and especially the MotoGP and Superbikes. Oh and sometimes I follow the Tour de France.
