Best TV?
What are your top 3 TV programmes at the moment?
We are well and truly in a rut with our viewing, and need to branch out! We got Tivo last year, and found that it is actually reducing the amount of TV we watch.....Have it set up on about 40 season passes for the BBC & ITV news,Coupling, Cold Feet, Redcap, etc, plus a few from here - CSI, NYPD Blues etc, but we're running into either zero programming, or just repeats....need some good new drama/crime/thriller stuff to record - anything good going on?
I went thru every listing last night (took a while!) and came up with nothing new - what am I missing???

The Weather Channel. Story may be crap but they do explain the plot lines in detail every 10 minutes.
Oh and CNN early morning news. The program is shite but by god Robin Meade is damn gorgeous.

1. Only Fools & Horses
2. Doctor Who
3. Dad's Army
Sorry it doesn't help with your TV viewing over here, but I really do watch DVD's of British shows a lot more than I watch US television.
