I was so happy and productive the 5 years I didn't have a TV, or at least cable. I have seriously fallen off the horse.

Lost, most HBO and Showtime originals (a week or two til Dexta'!) and enough House Hunters on HGTV to damage more brain cells than regular drugs ever could.

Anyone watched True Blood on HBO yet? I've heard nary a thing about it, but will catch up if it's worth it.

Fringe has been pretty fun so far, True Blood is pretty unimpressive though. Hopefully the return of Heroes will make up for the lackluster writing that scourged season two. All of these shows pale in comparison to Battlestar though, I can't wait for the second half of the last season.

FX shows are good, Burn Notice is pretty cool, other than that it's Mystery Science Theatre 3000 episodes on DVD for me.

American, Lieutenant: Special Forces Unit "Black Light". Two Purple Hearts, Leningrad and Siberia. Youngest man to be decorated by the President. Then you robbed the Federal Reserve Depository... life sentence, New York maximum security penitentary. I'm about to kick your ass out of *the world*, war hero...

Don't watch too many live action tv shows, these come to mind:

House (I'm fucking addicted to this one. Hugh Laurie is fucking brilliant!!!)
Entourage
Real Time with Bill Maher
Scrubs (Haven't watched in a while, but randomly I'll watch it)
Law & Order (Again, randomly I'll watch it)

What I really am though is a cartoon addict. I still enjoy a lot of old Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network shows I used to watch when I was younger (or not even younger), like Rocko's Modern Life, Doug, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Courage the Cowardly Dog & Dexter's Laboratory. Of course I watch a pretty much most of the adult theme cartoons out there like South Park, Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, American Dad, Venture Brothers, Metalocalypse & Robot Chicken.

Plus, I like a few good quality Anime shows, but I haven't watched anything new in that department in a while.

I'll probably watch Lost if it comes back, House & Heroes definitely...

Mostly the only TV I watch is (And I expect plenty of deserved laughs) All My Children and One Life To Live.

Season 5 of House started back on the 16th. The next episode should be on Tuesday.

Fringe is awesome so far, and if the little hint the doctor gives in the pilot of inexplicable things occurring in the world (a plane flies somewhere emitting a high frequency noise and shortly after an earthquake rocks the same area killing thousands) is meant to be foreshadowing things to come, then indeed we may have a very cool show that combines x-files, csi, and regenesis. (Regenesis is an awesome canadian show about diseases and bio-terrorism and the end of the world that you should all check out if you've never seen it).

True blood - I like it. It's quirky, it's unique, it manages to do something a little different with vampires, who are old hat these days. I like the nod to the anne rice stereotype, with him cutting his wrist to feed the girl, but then they purposfully draw back and do something different with it, almost to say "yeah, we know what you expect, and it ain't gonna happen". It's also very funny. And yes, the title sequence is worth price of admission alone.

I miss Buffy.
I've always been interested in the comic continuation, but I've never bought a comic book in my life.
