Twin Peaks, Lost, Law and Order SVU, Weeds, Sex and the City, Carnivale, Freaks and Geeks, Oz, Six Feet Under, and sometimes Heroes. I'm up and down with Desperate Housewives -- it has moments of great dialogue and fascinatingly quirky plots but Teri Hatcher is beyond unwatchable to the point where I have to fast forward through her scenes. Also I confess to being lured by America's Next Top Model and Gossip Girl. And if I am randomly home and come across Supernanny, Wife Swap, Judge Judy, Chelsea Lately (Chelsea Handler rocks my world - she is so, so much funnier than Sarah Silverman), or Little People Big World I will gladly stay tuned. As far as morning news shows I always watch the Today Show. Oh, and I prefer Letterman to Leno.
