My Tivo Top Five
 
 1. Boston Legal - I mean William Shatner... come on.
 2. The Office - (US&UK) best when I hat my boss.
 3. Daily Show - Need the humor after dealing with real news all day.
 4. Corbert Report - Because it is such a smack at Bill O'Reilly, that pompous ass.
 5. The OC - For the soundtrack and cheese.

HBO is airing "Extras".....not as good as The Office,but then what is?.....the "cringe" factor is quite high,though, just like good old Brent,but the supporting characters from the office are sorely missed......

"extras" is great, but it's not as good as "the office" (what is?) and putting it on right after CYE is rough. because they are both that same type of cringe humor, but CYE makes you laugh out loud a lot more. CYE has bounced back nicely so far from what i thought was a lackluster season 4.
 
 i'm a total "lost" convert, can't wait for the imminent ana lucia/kate rumble. can't wait for "24" to come back whenever that is. daily show/colbert report is a crucial hour. enjoyed "everybody hates chris" but keep forgetting it's on. need to auto-tivo it. that's what i do with "beavis & butthead" and i've got like 30 episodes saved up. that, like, rules and stuff.
 
 still watch "arrested development" although the first season has been far better than anything since. i gave up on "the o.c." because i hate everyone on there.
 
 just starting getting the "undeclared" dvds through netflix, what a great show that was.

My Name is Earl has totally blown me away.  Far better then I expected, and I expected a lot.
 
 How I met Your Mother, and I would watch solely for Doogie Howser.  When the main guy said he broke up with a girl because she was a porn star, then Doogie got up, siad "Pornstar??!!??  FRIENDSHIP OVER!!!!!" I felt as though I was watching my life.  I do love his character.
 
 I also like The War At Home.  Michael Rapaport is fantastic and they're not afraid to take some chances with the dialougue about uncomfortable aspects of parenting.  I really like that.
 
 I gave up on Starved because it was so depressing.
 
 I can't wait for It's Always Sunny in Philly to return - I did like that.
 
 Nip/Tuck this season has been better then last season.
 
 I'm not enjoying Laguna Beach, The Real Orange County, but I can't stop watching it.
 
 And then the usuals:  60 Minutes, The West Wing, Deperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy on Sunday.  Arrested Development on Monday.  The OC and Alias on Thursday.  The Daily Show and The Colbert Report nightly.

Unfortunately, HBO doesn't come with our free cable.

It's dialogue is similar to Family Guy sometimes, but it's alot more disturbing/cringeworthy to hear it coming from real people instead of cartoons.
