What's on your DVR now that shows "restart" ?

I just finished updating my DVR.

Must-sees EVERY week (in order of preference)
1. 24
2. Survivor (in Feb)
3. Grey's Anatomy
4. American Idol

To a lesser extent (i.e. I won't be terribly upset if I miss a week, but they still get recorded):
5. House
6. Psych
7. Monk
8. Dirt
9. In Case of Emergency

DVR Fillers:
* Judge Judy
* People's Court
* Friends
* 30 Days (I watch it mostly on DVD)
* Dr. Phil
* Scrubs (watched originally on DVD).

These are DVD-only shows since there's only so many hours in the week:
1. Scrubs
2. Lost
3. Desperate Housewives
4. Friends
5. Sex And The City
6. Previous seasons of Monk (going to start real-time now)
7. Previous seasons of House (going to start real-time now)
8. Scrubs (I'm caught up to the end of S4 but I plan a S1-4 marathon soon)

And I get to watch movies at work, and have about 3-4 hours a day to do so. I've used that time to watch Seasons 1-5 of "24" in the past 2.5 months (average of 7 days per season). I try not to watch DVDs at home. Next up (starting as soon as S1 gets to my library): Alias the complete series. Since I heard Jack Bristow thinks he can kick Jack Bauer's butt. And no one messes with Jack Bauer

So what's in yours?
Yes I spend way too much time on this at work

Since you asked (in order of when they come on and not ranked)....

King of the Hill
Simpsons
Family Guy
American Dad
Desperate Housewives
Brothers & Sistsers
Heroes
Prison Break
24
How I Met Your Mother
The Class
The New Adventures of Old Christine
Studio 60 on Sunset Strip
The Shield
Dirt
The Closer
House
American Idol
Veronica Mars
Bones
LOST
Knights of Prosperity
In Case of Emergency
Medium
My Name is Earl
The Office
Scrubs
30 Rock
ER
Smallville
Supernatural
Everybody Hates Chris

Thankfully, I DVR most of that so I can skip commercials! Looks like I'm going to have to catch the rerun on Heroes on SciFi since Monday is now totally busy!

If I get the HDTV I'm eyeing, I may watch some of those shows live (esp. Heroes, Veronica Mars, Supernatural).

On DVD, I'm trying to get caught up with the new Doctor Who and rewatching Buffy all the way through.

I'm assuming he means shows returning from mid-season break (like say Desperate Houswives) or are starting their season (like 24).

Almost. It's "she"

Also there's some new shows like Dirt and the Emergency one, but there's a break in series (either returning or new, starting or continuing their seasons) during the holidays, and January is a major month for TV.

Sorry, Deb.

Does anyone know if Saved is returning?

Saved got the ax as far as I know.

I still watch most shows live but here's the DVR list
Judging Amy (catching the reruns on TNT)
Lincoln Heights (recorded the premiere last night so we'll see)
24
Studio 60
CSI: New York
Law & Order (so I can watch Psych when it returns next week)

I'm debating on whether I should keep Shark. It's a decent show but the last episode really pissed me off.
