Poll question: Highly rated tv shows you don't watch
Edited on Wed Nov-19-03 11:09 PM by nu_duer
I'd have to check a lot of these, all to be accurate. (even west wing, I know, I know...)

(On Edit: added "none of the above")
(on further edit (dammit!) "none of the above" should be "all of the above" - mumble, mumble.... ;-) )

2. Geez. I don't watch any of those shows.
I actually don't watch much television at all. When I do, it's usually Discovery, Animal Planet, or PBS. I get very limited cable (no Comedy Central), and I really have no use for sitcoms and reality crap.

7. Don't watch any of them.
Other than the occasional sitcom like Scrubs the TV is just background noise in my apartment.

10. I just never got around to watching it
Now I feel like I wouldn't know wtf is going on if I did tune in. I don't exactly know why I never watched it in the first place.

18. It was awesome tonight, much better than the last few weeks
Budget crisis, Government shut-down. Bartlett was getting crap from all sides. They decided to go to the republicans for a unscheduled meeting. Bartlett stopped the motorcade on the way, to say hello to tourists that couldn't get into a tourist attraction. Josh came up with brilliant idea to walk, the remaining distance. The republicans freaked, made the POTUS wait like 7 mins. Then Josh again got the brilliant idea of walking out.

Giving the impression that POTUS wanted to talk, to figure it all out, and republicans didn't. I think it was the best episode this season so far.

19. You mean the "President" got out and walked amongst the people?!
Edited on Wed Nov-19-03 11:31 PM by nu_duer
Great contrast to the current shielded, unworthy and afraid of the people coward.

I'll watch next week, for the first time.

thanks

30. Ooo Yeah..Got out walk amongst the people
And they wrote it in a way that, Potus had this meeting, stressed out, then noticed a busload of people locked out of a (something, can't remember)

POTUS got out and posed for pics, then they walk 2 or 3 blocks. ALL on MSNBC (...lol...) Then waited with full press outside of Republican office. As the republicans finally figured out, what they were going to say to them, They were walking out.

20. I vote A.Idol
But I dont watch any of the above except Law&ORder (<<-- great show). All the others suck, but the one you would have to put a gun to my head to get me to watch would be A. Idol, I hate teenage-wannabe-famous-brainless toads with no talent 'sing', or what actually sounds like a cat with its balls being squeezed and throat being choked simultaniously! Whats worse, I live in the same city as that Clay-my ears are a-Aiken, so the local news is full of him.

22. I'm too busy watching DU!
Why should I look at this brain-addling TV set when I can participate in thought provoking and lively interactive discussion on DU?
