I don't watch any reality shows as a general rule and many of them get pretty good ratings. I also don't watch any of the Law & Order or CSI shows. I don't like reality shows and I'm not interested in crime dramas, so I don't watch.

barwars · 04-03-2004, 09:49 PM

I watch "Survivor"
but thats it.

Two and a Half Men is good.... but I always seem to forget to tune in.

ClassicComedyFan2 · 04-03-2004, 10:52 PM

You name it, I don't watch it.

All NBC sitcoms and dramas and reality. I hate that network.

All CSI shows

Everybody Loves Raymond

American Idol...it annoys me. If it were just Simon ripping into bad singers...I'd watch. THAT is funny.

All reality but Survivor: All Stars, and that's not even every week.

CSI. I used to watch Survivor but stopped after season 2 although I sometimes watch the finales and reunions. I watch just about everything else though.

Brent88 · 04-04-2004, 12:38 AM

Everything but Survivor(and when Big Brother and Amazing Race return) those. I might watch 5 minutes of something else as I am flipping by(mostly comedies), but I don't watch it regularly.

Mr. Television · 04-04-2004, 12:57 AM

Friends, Will And Grace, Everybody Loves Raymond(though I watch it sometimes), Survivor or any other reality show including American Idol

robyrob · 04-04-2004, 02:02 PM

Everybody Loves Raymond - can't stand

Frasier - i watched the first two seasons, havent enjoyed it since

all the reality shows - with the exception of the first episodes of American Idol... the bad ones are funny AND the "Surreal Life-2" was pretty good

Chocoholic · 04-05-2004, 10:46 AM

Friends- Never could stand it.

Frasier- Loved it when it first came out, but lost interest after a couple of seasons.

Everybody Loves Raymond- Used to love it, now I cringe when I see it on.

any of the Law& Order shows, CSI shows, and other crime dramas

any reality show

dlemond · 04-05-2004, 10:59 AM

I don't watch any reality show, basically because I don't need to watch idiots on TV when I can look outside and seem them.

Entertain, inform, or educate me. Don't show me jackasses I can see at my 7-11.

I don't watch the reality shows even though they have high ratings. I don't watch TCS, and I have read that it has high ratings.

James · 04-07-2004, 01:44 AM

The only show I watch nowadays is Joan of Arcadia. Other than that, they pretty much follow a simple formula: high ratings = OVERRATED
