I'm quite into Lost and Battlestar Gallactica at the moment - but i prefer watching them on DVD since that largely eliminates the cravings for more at the end of an episode.

Sometimes i'll watch the news in the morning while i sip coffee, to sort of mentally prepare myself for the world. Other that that i hardly ever watch TV, only when i'm in the most apathic of moods.

i thought you were opposed to tv series on dvd :p

i hardly ever watch tv. i record will & grace (last season is terrible) and third rock from the sun, but other than that theres currently nothing on tv that interests me.
shows that do/did interest me though are the classics like seinfeld and mash :icon14:

I watch cartoons :(

Mostly..

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

Invasion was pretty decent for a while. Last couple episodes were bad tho. Lost has been good this season as well.

lost
prison break

like ryoki said, watching them on DVD/AVI eliminates the craving at the end of an episode. it also eliminates the need to smash the TV when commercials come

only thing i watch on TV itself is the occasional champions league game and 'have i got news for you'

Your financial argument was rather odd... iirc you tried to reason that if i got rid of my TV it would be cheaper to get things on DVD. Which was a strange type of reasoning that confused me greatly...

But in the end it's just incredibly convenient and not-annoying to have stuff on DVD. I'm all for it now :icon14:

not only that, but you're using your time more efficiently as opposed to watching it on broadcast tv.
