How many shows are you following right now?

I've settled on three: House, Grey's Anatomy, and Private Practice. I'm working through Private Practice right now starting from S1, I'm caught up to GA, and House doesn't need to be followed that closely but I'm going to watch every ep starting with the last 5 eps or so of last season.

There's just so many good shows Thankfully we have DVDs.

Re: How many shows are you following right now?

Shows that I really like...Between 30-40 (It's a mix between Fall, Spring and Summer stuff). Since I work at night, I'm only able to watch 2-3 episodes a night and end up falling 2-3 weeks behind on a few.

Thursday's are murder since there is over 11 programs I try to follow.

When I was in High School and College, I barely watched anything. However, 12 years after College I've become a major TV junkie.

I'm not married, don't have any kids, so I like the distraction of watching scripted TV to relax me after a stressful night at work.

Well, Entourage is finished for this year, which leaves me with

- CSI

I'll pick up Curb & South Park on DVD.

Re: How many shows are you following right now?

I haven't followed a show or shows in a long, long time. I would have followed Fringe during the first season, but I had to work on the night it was on, so I only caught a few episodes before my boss took the TV away. Now I'm following Fringe and Glee, and that's about it. I'm not a big TV watcher in general.

Re: How many shows are you following right now?

Curb Your Enthusiasm & Bored to Death - Not sold on Bored yet but the first 3 episodes were good enough to keep watching and it comes on after Curb so that helps.

Psych - seemed like an enjoyable show for the few episodes I watched but don't currently follow it. I wanted to show a little love though.


Dropped American Idol after following the original season and most of the past two.
