Of everything you've seen on the boob-tube, what do you believe is the best of television?

"Sunday Morning" on CBS - It celebrates music, theater, literature, nature, and people who are making a mark in the world.

Hi, Zander. Welcome to Whoosh.
I've haven't watched many of the shows posted here....uhm...haven't seen most of them. Ok, I've never watched any of them. Maybe, Heros once....in the first season, I think, to see what all the hoopla was about, but for whatever reason, I never tuned in again.
LOST used to be a favorite, but the longer it ran, the more I lost interest.
I am not much of a television watcher; there are only a handful of shows that I watch with any consistency at all, and out of those only a few I put on my "must-see" list: CSI, Survivor, and Life.
I love Life, but no one I know has ever watched it, (except a friend who is hooked now after I explained the show to her and urged her to watch)....few people have ever even heard of it. I think it's one of the most underated shows on television; I've read it described as "by far the best show people aren't watching." The writer's strike last year halted the show just a few episodes into its first season, and I was glad - but kind of surprised, actually - to see it return this fall.

I like "Life", as well, Gams. The lead actor reminds me of Steve McQueen, only with that cute red hair.
I don't watch much tv, either, except for sports and movies. "ER" used to be must-see tv for me. But IMO that show has lasted at least 3 years too long. I've tried to watch it this season, knowing this is the last one. But the characters are repellent to me, and the plots, silly.
