Recently, Twatter has been consumed by forum games.
In search of actual discussion, I decided to make a T.V thread. So what shows do you like, Stabyourself? Personally, I watch Metalocalypse and Futurama a lot, among other things like the Simpsons and South Park.
Oh and please keep My Little Pony related stuff out of this thread, that's for the Ponies thread.

DISCUSS.

I watch the same shows!,but i occasionally miss some South Park episodes. Of the Souh Park episodes, my favorite episodes were: when the group(cartman, and such) visit kenny in the ghetto, Minorities in my water park, and many others, about 5-6 more episodes that i like.
i haven`t watched any of the new episodes of metalocalypse (recent season), I really hope to see them soon though. Futurama i used to watch i can`t wait for that to get back on AS soon hopefully. erm, Simpsons i used to watch back in the day i for some reason lost track of them and slowly left from watching them for some unknown reason.anyway, talking about TV i heard spongebob`s voice actor died.(no bullshit, look it up if you don`t believe), i was a fan of the older episodes i grew up with. im not sure what to think about the “newer”(newer meaning the most recent episodes) episodes.

None. My TV broke down a few months ago and I broke the habit of watching it.

We get cable tv with cinema channels so I'll watch the occasional movie with my parents, but other than that and the news, I'll rarely watch tv.
Internet all the way!

there's barely anything on the normal T.V channels where I live,
it's always a bad show or news,
occasionally there's something entertaining on but I'm always bombarded with commercials every five seconds (seriously they even cut part of the Simpsons out just to show them)

thank god I have a recorder that records the occasional shows that are good.

Hmm, let's see... I watch Futurama, the Simpsons, South Park (Not so much anymore), and any other kid show you can find.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and Adult Swim.

I've seen most old episodes of the Simpsons(Season 1-11 are the stuff I own), and honestly they are way better than the new stuff they're pumping out. The humor was better, and instead of just being all sex jokes, they actually thought of clever stuff.
The same thing applies for pre-Comedy Central Futurama.

Which just reminds me, Family Guy is just a rip-off of Simpsons. Someone made a video of all the jokes that MacFarlane stole from the Simpsons, but I'm too lazy to hunt for it...

I hate family guy (unfortunately that's one of the shows I have to record because it's very boring watching the other stuff over and over)
there's so many cut away gags in it that there's barley any story,
why isn't it just a clip show or something?

one show I do like a lot is robot chicken.

i occasionally watch them out of boredom, my favorite episodes of those series are most likely, “Billy” episode of Adventure time mostly because of the rediculus song. my favorite episode of regular show is,“the worlds greatest burger” mostly because i like food, and that burger idea did seem insanely possible. i like robot chicken enough that i have the genuine robot chicken hat in TF2.hmm, I heard a rumor that AS was going to have a TF2 inspired show.I`m not sure if that is true, otherwise why would AS promote meet the pyro, have a TF2 hat of a show, and say something about a partnership, and valve release a source film maker, anyways its just a hunch.

Many people think so as well. Thats why I theorize TV will be dead in 40 years or more IF the internet reliant users of each country increases by atleast .2% every 1-2 years. :p but then again many people watch tv before using the interwebs.
