Just wanted to start a topic , whats everyone into thesedays?
When I do get Spare Time, recently i discovered " The Cleveland Show" its a spin off from Family guy.

I stopped watching family after season 4, but this one isnt all that bad, yes its stereotypical, but so is all Seth Mcfarlane stuff.

Its not half bad, starts on e4 this month, ( I dont know site guidelines, i already obtained an oppurtunity to view)

Check it out if you can... And lets hear what  you guys are into ( I have still to start season 2 of Rome( season 1 =awesome), and finish Eli Stone SEASON 1)

Rome - Season 2 is good but after Season 1 relatively tame and predictable. But enjoyable nevertheless.

I watch mostly sports programmes, movies and sci-fi. Been watching the re-runs of Babylon 5 lately.

Got the box set of the Sopranos for Xmas, love that show, been a while since i've seen it so looking forward to starting from the beginning.

Bought the IT Crowd, i thought it would be just for geeks but i did find that show very very funny.  Also the Inbetweeners, funny as anything.

Currently watching the Wire, missed it the first time round so have season 1 to watch, first episode wasnt great but i've heard great things about this show.

I 'ahem' quite enjoy downloading the Clone Wars every week, bit of old skool fun for 20 minutes.

But my main love at the moment is the Office USA, first few episodes of season 1 were poor as they were an american version of the english one.  But once it took off its just excellent.  Currently on Season 6 and its been superb.  So good i bought seasons 1-3 and i'll get the others soon.

Looking forward to 'The Pacific' by HBO which starts in Feb, from the makers of Band of Brothers.

Yeah i presume it'll be just like Band of Brothers but obviously the Japan/Pacific side of it, only seen a small trailer and it looks very good.

Didnt know anything about it until i think it was a trailer appeared for it during one of the Gamepass adverts.

Vann, be prepared for disappointment. Eli Stone goes rapidly downhill about 2/3 through S1, hence it's now cancelled. Pity, cos it was really funny at the start.

Dexter S4 next for me. Not quite the same without Dokes, but Matsuka is classic!

Looking forward to Fringe restarting too. Meh for the storylines but Walter cracks me up.

Oh yeah, House should be back on soon as well.

Thats the thing, theres so many big US shows out there, unsure what one to get into as so many seem to get cancelled !

Used to watch Prison Break which was very good (seasons 1 and 2) and then just got silly, glad it kinda had an ending though but season 4 was confusing as anything and totally over the top.

Shame though, first few were pretty good

Prison Break was glorious stupid fun from beginning to end. Yeah it got madder and madder but somehow it still managed to be entertaining.

Dumb TV at it's finest!

Well enjoying a fair few shows at the moment...

Office USA - Love this, very very funny
Kitchen Nightmares - Bit samey but i do find this entertaining with Ramsey
Clone Wars - Bit childish but i love the graphics/imagery and its a good bit of entertainment every week
24 - Still loving this but hate Chloe, want to give her a slap !
Pacific - Recently started, decent so far
Apprentice - Celebrity version, has Sharon Osbourne in it so it should have a lot of fireworks
Ricky Gervais show - Listened to these previously as the podcasts but these shows are very good with the animation
Lost - Been there since day 1 but cant wait for it to finish, gone downhill badly, just waiting till the end.

(I honestly dont watch much TV on Sky , mostly watch a lot of US shows)
