Just to see what freethinkers/Atheists/Humanists get up to in their free time!!

The only show I really go out my way to watch is QI, apart from that its got to be Match of the Day and Top Gear.

What about you lot??

I'm wih Moogle on Big Bang Theory...

I also like a lot of TV shows with any kind of rational backbone. I like House MD and Numb3rs as well as original CSI. I try to catch some of the more interesting and relevant Panorama and Dispatches.

I don't tend to get much time for TV, but classics like QI and Never Mind The Fullstops get a look in whenever possible. Dave and iPlayer make it all a lot easier to keep an eye on the world of TV.

QI is awesome. Though if we're talking all time favourite shows it has to be Dawson's Creek. I mean, it's a work of genius. Who wouldn't want to be Dawson, the beautiful old style romantic idealist, he's everything I want to be and more.

Also Futurama, X-Files, Simpsons, Dark Angel, Father Ted, Jonathon Creek, The O.C. are all part of the legacy of my mispent youth. I could go on.

Btw, if we're going to legitimise the free thinking movement, should we have some TV show that every single one of us watches like the way Christians all watch Neighbours?

:P.

Keeping on the rationality theme, I was always a huge fan of Jonathan Creek...

In the runup to finals I must have watched about every complicated-twisty-American-drama show there is, just to avoid revision. Lost, Prison Break, Heroes, the fucking lot. Thank science for Internet downloading!*




*disclaimer: illegal downloading of TV programs is really really bad even when the shows have the audacity to push out seasons of 10 episodes on DVD due to writer's strikes and charge full whack for it

Daily Show with Jon Stewart (course in irony)
The Colber report if I can get it online (course in sarcasm)
Bullshit by Penn & Teller (also online). (course in skepticism)
Gordon Ramsay Kitchen nightmares (course in straight talk)

and very little else :(

I've been watching Rome recently. Great show, full of blood, guts, intrigue, sex and that guy from Trainspotting. All good things as far as I'm concerned.

Big yes to the daily show. Flight of the Conchords always cheers me up :D

I don't watch TV much, but persist in watching BBC news and banging my head on the sofa complaining how juvenile it is.

Robot Chicken is good for a quick, cheap laugh. Their Star Wars specials are amazing, because they're clearly crafted with equal parts love and mockery :)

The Daily Show is amazing, as is the Colbert Report. Been watching them for years now...
