I know there are quite a few of us who love the Simpsons so was also wondering what everyone else likes to watch when chilling in front of the box....

I love the Simpsons but am a big fan of reality shows (Survivor, My Restaurant Rules, etc but loathe the music ones).... Love Lost and Desperate Housewives....

Now its your time to spill......

Love Lost
Now its your time to spill......

Would you like Paul and myself to spoil the season end to Lost

Actually, we've watched the entire series, but we're still none the wiser as to what's going on...keeping you in suspense til next season!

letmeteachyou21 Jun 2005, 6:39pm

Please dont! I would cry if i knew what happened at the end.....

Life_aura21 Jun 2005, 8:49pm

Hey can I steal the lost seires off you??.. some of my mate love it but they issed stuff and I am getting lost with it all.. totally up to date but need to work out a few thing

I am a simpson fan.. dont have to think when watchin that

love it at the end of the day stupid joke and just a bunch of fun!

eskimopie21 Jun 2005, 9:01pm

Lost is fun, but the advertising shits me... it promises so much and never delivers. I do enjoy it though.

One show I loved was battle star galactica the recent version on ten.

Im a sci fi fan, and that show rocked. Pissed me off how they kept moving time slot to later and later. Because of that, I missed a couple of episodes and then it just disappeared. Really annoying. Sci fi fans always get a raw deal from free tv.

buph21 Jun 2005, 9:43pm

I am a simpsons fan through and through I even have a simpson quote calnder at work, different simpsons triva/quotes every day of the year.

Allthough CSI is another of my fav's

AMEN to that!! How many weeks have they promised us we'd see the monster????
And have we? Oh yeah... the polar bear. Pfft!!! Polar bears aren't scary, not if your a bundy drinker like me!!!

I'm a big fan of the simpsons, and most reality shows. I promised myself I wouldn't get sucked into BB this year, and so far, I'm only watching it 3 or 4 times a week.

I started out to be a big fan of desperate housewives, however I missed a few eps early on and not much of it makes sense now... if anyone has all the eps I'd love to borrow them!!

I'm a big fan of All Saints, very rarely do I miss it. I also like the amazing race!! Lucia got me hooked on that one!! We watch Neighbours every night too.

We watch a lot of TV in this house!

not TV as such!

SUPERSHOOTERr6 Jul 2005, 12:28am

Kirsty has Season 1 and I have Seasons 2, 3, 4 & 5 of the Simpsons on DVD! Oh yeah! I have a feeling I'll be adding Series 3 & 4 Seinfeld to my collection at some point!

Davinr7 Jul 2005, 12:23am

For anyone who's watched Pimp My Ride, you have to watch the UK version. It had me rolling around hurting myself with laughter.....I'm still trying to work out if they're taking the piss

It's available on channel BT

Decepticonr7 Jul 2005, 12:39am

pimp my ride is awesome.

whats this english version u speak of?

and by saying BT are u reffering to Bit Torrent?

Maybe

It's called Pimp My Ride UK

fo_sho_manr7 Jul 2005, 2:14am

is there any way to get to watch that show without subscribing to Foxtel$?

Davinr7 Jul 2005, 2:19am

a big phat internet connection and a bit torrent client should see you watching in no time!

I've got Season 2 on DVD, and season 1 and 3 as DivX

PaulHamonr7 Jul 2005, 10:39am

better than foxtel.. because you can get the tv shows the day after they screen in USA or UK

foonjir7 Jul 2005, 12:55pm

speaking of foxtel, i got accepted to go in and do some backstage work for Channel [v] when they come down to adelaide on the 14th for their auditions filming.

kandiir11 Jul 2005, 8:03pm

Knowing me, I woul watch the whole season in a siting, coz I'm no good with patience ans suspense if what I want is on hand. Waiting til the following week to find out what happens next is half the fun!

Ya - I vote for Fat Pizza too! And Doctor Who, Black Books, Mythbusters and Coupling. Big fan of the Simpson's too - think someone else mentioned it's a great way to turn your brain off at the end of the day.

Can't stand any kind of reality TV though....

anyone seen carnivale?
it was on the abc late on a wednesday night. i think.
very trippy freaked out series about a travelling carnival in the 1930s.
Has sort of an old school x-files feel to it.
bought the series on dvd and nearly watched the whole thing straight up.
lots of unanswered questions by the end of the series tho.
apparently they will be answered next series. can't wait for it!

Try these on for size :

Upright Citizens Brigade
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Sealab 2012
Harvey Birdman
Strangers with candy
The Daily Show
Curb your Enthusiasm

Of course you won't find them on commercial TV though
