    Favorite Shows.
    my favorite show WAS Friends, but thats all over now :( :( :( :(

    i cant wait till Joey show comes on

    I loved Friends, too. It was the only show that I would go out of my way to try and remember to watch. (Although I often forgot, including the finale! :( I bought the video, so that's all good now, though! LOL)

    I'll try to watch "Joey" when it comes out. I'm not holding out a lot of hope that it'll be anywhere as good as the original...but there are the occassional winner-sequels that make everyone hope it'll work again. (Such as Cheers/Frazier)

    So, Friends is definitely my all-time favorite.
    For some others, I catch on rare occassions when I happen to not have anything to do at the same time they are on:
    CSI: Vegas
    Jeff Corwin
    Trading Spaces
    Clean Sweep
    Everybody Loves Raymond
    Still Standing

    And (a big secret!!!) I really enjoy People's Court when I happen to catch it. Sssshhhhhhh!

    Oh...and The Daily Show! That's the one other show I try to remember to watch. My husband and I love it for a great way to end a rough day!

    Ah yes! That is one of my favorite shows ever of all time! The Daily Show (on Comedy Central) is AMAZING! John Stuart gave the most memorable and moving post 9/11 speech out of all of them, I was almost crying in class when we watched it in my political comm class, the teacher had to end class early b/c so many people were not able to talk.

    Formerly, Friends was #1--I rarely missed it! (Marla, I used to love Queer as Folk-and could relate as our ex-friends/business partners were gay and I'd hang out w/them a lot--not to mention that gay men can P-A-R-T-Y!! And they're all so hot, very depressing!!)

    1) That 70's Show (rarely miss it!)
    2) Animal Cops(NY) (when I remember to watch it).....
    ...I just can't think of anymore, guess I don't watch as much TV as I used to, too many reality shows I guess!!

    Caren, that makes 3 of us who watch QAF. Are you not watching this season? I can't believe what they did on last night's episode! And right after what happened on last night's Sopranos!
  • 05-24-2004, 08:15 PM
    Smynx
    Both shows were awesome lastnight! But QAF is always better. FYI, Caren, not all the actors on QAF are gay - I was informed of that by a gay friend who was disappointed when he found out. Woo Hoo!
  • 05-24-2004, 08:23 PM
    Marla
    Smynx, I was informed of the same by a friend who was delighted to learn she might have a chance with Brian, especially since he was house-shopping here. There's no accounting for some people's tastes. ;) QAF has definitely aged well. The first season was really pretty rough, but it has been tightening up since then, despite the fact that Hal Sparks (Michael) couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. I *love* Debbie, though. Sharon Gless is great in the role. :)
  • 05-24-2004, 08:28 PM
    Smynx
    Brian is my favorite!!! - something about that wry smile and sarcastic wit gets me every time (it worked for Smulkin!). I agree with you about Hal and Sharon. The friend of mine I just mentioned LOVES Michael, but I just don't understand why. Hmm. Maybe its because he's a gay man and I'm a straight woman. Just a thought.

    My shows:

    Six Feet Under
    Sopranos
    Law and Order (all of them)

    South Park
    Survivor
    American Idol

    My fav cancelled shows:
    Buffy
    Angel
    Sex and the City

    I used to watch friends until I thought it started sucking a few years ago. Around the time Rachel got pregnant. Just wasn't funny anymore.

    I loved buffy and angel also. I still have yet to watch the series finalle of Angel. Spike was my fav.
  • 05-24-2004, 09:36 PM
    gen
    I was quite unhappy with the series finale. In fact, I didn't really like the show as much this season at all. Spike was the only thing that saved it for me.

    That wry smile looks like a smirk to me. ;) And why, for the love of Mike, if he's so successful, can't Brian afford shampoo? He's definitely a better actor than Hal is, though -- he came from the Pine & Oak School of Acting (wooden as the day is long). :)
  • 05-24-2004, 10:16 PM
    Smynx
    LOL. You crack me up, Marla. I guess if you look like Gale Harold, you don't have to wash your hair or know how to act.
  • 05-24-2004, 10:17 PM
    Marla
    No, no, I meant Hal was the one who couldn't act. But the hair washing deficit is all him. :)

    Marla & Smynx,
    No, I'm not watching it this season or last (was busy w/the business and I fell out of the loop w/a lot of the shows I used to watch). When I watched it, it revolved around mostly gay characters....I was turned on to it by my former gay friends (surprise, surprise). All the 'boys' used to watch it, if I missed it, I knew someone had it taped for me! I do miss it though...I don't even know when it's on anymore....clue me in, maybe I'll start watching again seeing as I don't really have any shows left......
  • 05-24-2004, 10:24 PM
    Marla
    Sunday nights at ten and again Tuesdays at eleven. It still does revolve around mostly gay characters (hence the title), but most of the actors aren't. You should definitely start watching it again, as it's improved significantly from the beginning, but it would be good if you could watch last season to catch up before starting this season.

    OK. Gotcha. I got confused.

    Caren, the show just keeps getting better. Marla is right, it has tightened up a lot. There's less and less emphasis on the boys' escapades and more emphasis on the interpersonal relationships of the main characters. It's difficult not to get caught up in it.
  • 05-24-2004, 10:36 PM
    sophie42204
    I'm going to try to watch it again, I was enthralled before and that was from watching the 1st season, so I'm sure I'll be able to get into it again.......when does this season end? Maybe I'll catch up over the summer......
  • 05-24-2004, 10:41 PM
    Marla
    They've aired six episodes, and last season had 14, so we should be around half done already. :( Seasons one through three are out on dvd, so you might be able to get them at Blockbuster and get caught up. :)
  • 05-24-2004, 10:45 PM
    sophie42204
    Kewl, I'll check it out (just hope the 'man' doesn't give me grief like he did during the 1st season! Our second TV died and I'm reluctant to purchase another, but maybe now I'll have to!! :wink:)

    I'm sure he can cope with your watching a tv series. :)

    Jotay, I have to ask, what is "G-string Divas?"

    Ironhead, HR Puff n Stuff was my absolute favorite as a kid. I even had a stuffed Puff n Stuff that I slept with.

    I don't watch too much TV - which is good considering Smynx pretty much has the TiVo schedule cornered ;) But I do get sucked into a lot of the shows that are on the science channel whether I intend to or not. Do make an effort to catch Chapell and South Park, and I'm lucky if I hit that. Always jump at any herp-oriented shows if I can manage to have the tube on when they are.

    For what it's worth, I'm seeing some definite themes here and I think we probably could share a tv a lot more peaceably than my dorm could when I was in college. :)

    It's not that, he just didn't like QAF, regardless, no man rules me! I just don't wanna hear the gripping is all....but I'll deal w/him if he does...

    I forgot that I also (kinda embarrassed to admit it) watch The OC...I know, I know, it's fluff......can't help it!!

    Smynx G-String Diva's is a series on HBO about a group of strippers.

    Thats why we each have a Tivo :D
    We originally had a 80 hour one in the living room but the satellite #2 in crapped out so I returned it and got 2 35 hour ones I have my shows on the one in the living room and the Mrs. has the one in our bedroom.

    Besides she watches all those silly crafty and design shows like trading spaces :roll:

    :wink: :lol:

    Not a bad idea. Maybe next Christmas, I'll get a Tivo for him.
  • 05-25-2004, 11:39 PM

    Ahh G-String Divas
    As McWin stated it is a show about a group of strippers that work at a club in Philly called Divas. It has been on almost as long as the Sopranos.
    It follows each girls life in the club and somewhat out of the club
    TV at it's finest :)
    I have a soft spot in my heart for the women that make a living swinging from
    from the brass pole.
    Interesting show usually on after 11pm on any of the million HBO's
    I usually catch it on Sunday night.

    Not one single other person on these forums watches General Hospital!!?? What up with that!!?? If you need it, GH won Emmy Awards this year for best directed drama, best young actor, best supporting actor & best leading actor. Show some love!

    sophie42204
    My best friend watches it, and I happened to be visiting her last Friday (she had her tonsils out at the ripe old age of 33!) and she had the daytime emmy awards on...does that make you feel any better? Does it help that I used to watch it when I was a teenager? AND I watched Another World until it went off the air, but now I watch soaps like 'The OC' (yes, I consider The OC a type of soap opera), Melrose Place turned me into the nighttime soap opera type I guess!! :P
