Come you don't watch all those channels in one day. Why is it so hard for you to name five channels?

TBS really went out of their way to throw an episode of My Name is Earl into the schedule. They should just start this new schedule in September instead of making 2 separate changes, people who aren't like us on the blog will have no clue when anything is on. Also, 11am-1230 is too good a timeslot for Fresh Prince when they have much newer sitcoms worth showing.

This list applies only after the World Series:

1. Me-TV
2. GSN
3. CBS
4. TCM
5. Reelz (mainly for Wings)

I would replace a couple with Antenna TV and This TV but I don't get those.

I didn't use sports channels because that was too easy ESPN and TNT are on another level so I didn't include them

Yeah, that's why I didn't include sports channels either. It actually was a stretch to name 5, LOL.

As for my top 5 right now, just replace CBS with Fox Sports Detroit (for Tigers baseball only).

I think TV land will fall out of my top 5 the remainder of the year because since they removed Three's Company I won' be watching it that much. And the Cosby show being on at 8pm only works for the summer because in the fall you have the current tv shows that come on at 8pm and sports so TV land will be dropping to like number 12
