I'm keeping Angel and O.C. but dropping Jake 2.0. I'm really disappointed in this. I wish one of these shows had an encore showing later in the night or week, so I wouldn't have this problem.

Another season where nothing happens on Monday, and not much more happens on Thursday, but Tuesday and Wednesday must be packed with 10+ hours of stuff to watch.

At 8/7 Central, I watch That 70's Show, Ed and Smallville. At 9/8 Central, I watch The O.C., Angel and Jake 2.0. The only hour I don't have a confict is when Karen Sisco is on.

I need to figure out what to tape and what to catch on re-runs. I need a Tivo, and I need it NOW!!!

I dropped Jake 2.0 after the second show.

I watch Angel and for the very first time I am actually watching The Bachelor this year. (I missed that phenom before but Bob lives in my town so I thought I'd check it out this year.)

The 8:00 hour is more jammed. I watch Smallville and Enterprise and I am also going to check out "A Minute with Stan Hooper" tonight.

"Nothing" is a relative term. Any night where I only have 5 hours of stuff to watch is the equivalent of "nothing's on."

With 2 TiVos and about a half dozen VCRs I never reach my recording capacity. Finding the time to watch them is a bigger problem.

Except for the mention of L&O at the very end (I stopped watching after Jill Henessy left) this describes my current Wednesday viewing schedule to a tee.

I only watch Smallville and Angel on Wednesday nights. I too do not watch The West Wing because I can't stand to start watching a show in the middle of its run.

Why didn't Fox do the smart thing and move O.C. to Thursday night? Too much of the audience for the show is already watching Angel or some other show on that night. Nothing is on Thursdays to compete with. Why Fox why??

The OC > The West Wing...

So sad, but it is true. Does anyone know if repeatedly kicking John Wells in the groin will bring Aaron Sorkin back?

Wednesday = Southpark (new ones).

That's pretty much all I watch, unless there is a good game on...

Watch Angel, can catch KoQ and Becker in reruns, and haven't even a smidgen of interest in seeing even a moment of all the rest.

Easy - I don't watch any of them, because I don't like any of them.

The only worthwhile night of TV for me is Tuesday, when I have 24 and NYPD Blue.
