DISCLAIMER:
OKAY..FORGIVE ME IF THIS IS A REPOST!!!! I am too lazy and tired to go looking all over the forum for a post similar to this. You'll just have to get over it and not post to this if you don't like similar posts.

NOW ON TO THE TOPIC!!!
What television routine do you get into? What shows is it that you ALWAYS find yourself watching?? What channels??

MY RITUALISTIC TV WATCHING BEHAVIOR

I always watch RERUNS of Drew Carey at 7 p.m. when I sit down with my dinner.
Then I watcch RERUNS of Frasier at 7:30 p.m. while I'm still licking my plate clean.

On MONDAYS I always watch Boston Public followed by Ally McBeal.

I enjoy ALOT of shows on Fox.
Grounded for life is alright.
That 70s Show (occasionally.. I used to be a regular)
King of the Hill
Malcom In the Middle

I enjoy watching Comedy Central too. The Daily Show, Southpark,etc.

I like the History channel too.

OH! AND WHEN THE SOPRANOS STARTS I'LL DEFINATLY BE WATCHING!

But:

3 Simpsons episodes a day
Politically Incorrect
Survivor
CSI
West Wing
X-Files
Malcolm in the Middle

off the top of my head these are things I NEVER miss. There's probably more though

I always watch news, and sometimes The Price is Right at lunch, that's about it usually.

simpsons every weekday at 6:30pm after work.. and every sunday at 8

besides that, nothing is solid.. I try to watch that 70s show, titus, king of the hill, xfiles, and west wing

all fox shows except west wing

and my wife insist on watching the nbc thursday lineup, so normally Ill pay attention to friends and then tune the rest out.

The Simpsons
Kids in the Hall
Will and Grace
SNL
Frasier
That 70s Show
Just Shoot Me

.. and if there is nothing else on, I normally turn on Nick At Nite. 70s sitcoms rock (well, some of them at least). The Discovery channel is nice when it doesn't have all that Investigating reports on. I'm not much into learning about murders. Comedy Central is great, as well.

Thanks to replaytv, I don't have a ritual.

Usually the only think I make sure to see live is Monday Night Football during the season (though the new guy caused me to cringe all year)

I watch Law and Order on A & E almost every night. I also like CIS Boston Public 100 Centre ST and it looks like Big Apple is going to be good. That is about it.
