I don't watch much television. I almost exclusively watch comedy based programming, if I'm not watching a news channel.
The only show I wait for is
Peep Show-- I love the style and the comedy is a great mixture of awkwardness and clever humor.
Oh and I also like watching the podcast turn cartoon "
The Ricky Gervais Show". Hated it at first but on the second time I watched it, I found it hilarious.
I don't really like any modern programming from America apart from cartoons like Family Guy, Futurama, The Simpsons, American Dad, Robot Chicken (though The Simpsons is really getting crappier and crappier, it needs to end). I don't care if I miss any of these though. If they are on I watch 'em but meh.
As for the rest of the world, I sometimes watch The Gruen Transfer from Australia. Thats pretty good.
