I watched the first season of 24...but the level of absurdity increased exponentially and I had to quit.
I watched House until they let go of the original cast. Also, the level of snarky went from amusing to genuinely obnoxious.
A month ago, I actually cancelled cable service because I realized I was pissing away $600/yr on an underutilized service that was just wasting my time anyway.
The only shows I really watch are Terminator, Bones, and Fringe...all of which I can watch online for free.
I watched the first season of 24 and just never got into it. I do have to watch American Idol though when my wife has it on. That is when I am happy I have a Laptop or my DS.
there is only 1 show that rules the world.. OZ!!!!
OOOOOZZZZZ
how fucking great is oz.. you americans probably saw it years ago.. but i watched all 6 seasons last year with a friend and i'm still so smothered by the greatness of OZ
As far as shows, the only thing I watch is Married with children and king of queens. I also love the Mr. Bean shorts from the early 90's. Ninja Warrior on G4 is also hilarious most times.
I watch Heroes, Chuck, Big Bang Theory, and the occasional Family Guy.
Never watched Lost or 24. I only watch American Idol if I get forced to. I do get a kick out of tryout shows sometimes, when those horrible people think they should have the world handed to them on a platter.
I about died when that one tonedeaf girl came on. After getting shot down, she demanded the three judges train her, then give her the million dollars and contract. She threw such a tantrum, acted like a 3 year old.
Don't have cable, and Scifi never worked even when I did have it (stupid comcast). Used to like Stargate SG1 till it started going downhill after a few seasons. Most of my favorite shows do that, like Smallville (haven't watched an episode since #100) and such.

^this.
After the THIRD kidnapping "in one day" I was just done with the franchise.
I watch House reruns with my wife from time to time, but I'm not a fan. I refuse to sit through CSI with her though. I'll watch old Law and Order originals every once in a while, but also sit out on SVU. How the blackhearts can make week after week of "entertainment" based on rape victims is beyond me.
I don't watch Sci-Fi really. They show Doctor Who but I'm not really into it so much as I am with the original ones. The new crew is good, but it's just not Doctor Who to me, kind of like the new Mario games aren't to my taste, but I can play SMB3 for hours. I never got into B.G. mainly because I got cable well after it started, and there's really no jumping-on point with that show (much like B5). You just wind up spoiling too much.
About all I watch on TV is the Weather Channel, ESPN (on occasion, mainly for SportsCenter), CNBC, and the occasional dose of WGN (Cubs baseball). If it's on anything else, it's because the fiancee's watching it, too.

On a side note, I have every DVD (currently released) season of Southpark / Simpsons / Seinfeld though....
I watch CSI sometimes, but no on all the rest.

Yes Lost
No House
No CSI
I liked Tremors on Sci/Fi network before it got shitcanned.
I watched one season of 24, liked it a lot, but decided it was too much work to try and catch every episode.
Never tried Lost.
CSI I've seen but nothing special.
SciFi had some good shows, but nothing I'd go out of my way to watch now that I dont have cable.
American Idol is everything that is wrong with America .... well that plus serial killers.
OOOOOZZZZZ

Lost: Used to
House: Yes
CSI: No

Sci-Fi Channel: F@#$ yeah! Battlestar Galactica rocks my world.

I don't watch singing shows.
Nope to all of it, except Sci-Fi, I used to watch it until they cancelled Mystery Science Theater 3000. Jerks.
It lives on in the torrents! I have all but three episodes burned to disc
