My picks:

1. A&E
2. Discovery Health
3. SyFy
4. CourtTV
5. Discovery Channel

4/4/2010 1:05:29 AM

1) USA
2) Food network
3) Syfy
4) Fox
5) TNT

4/4/2010 1:07:55 AM

Comedy Central
AMC
FX
HGTV
Lifetime

In fact, I would settle for these channels and only these channels if they decreased my bill accordingly.

4/4/2010 1:09:27 AM

1. Comedy Central
2. SpeedTV
3. Cartoon Network
4. USA
5. Discovery

The last 3 are seldom watched. I'll only watch Network TV for sports and new episodes.

4/4/2010 1:14:31 AM

I guess I'd go to bars and invite myself over to people's homes to watch games.

4/4/2010 2:29:24 AM

Comedy Central - South Park
Cartoon Network - Adult Swim
2 out of 3 between ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN U because our game are usually relegated to the latter two but the premier games are mostly on ESPN (and ATH and PTI)
Oxygen - Bad Girls' Club. What can I say? I love watching drunk women getting in fights

barely miss the cut
FX - It's Always Sunny is my favorite show but it seems to be only on when new episodes are running and I don't watch anything else on that network.

4/4/2010 4:12:33 AM

1)USA
2)FX
3)Comedy Central
4)Discovery
5)ESPN network (cheating a bit here)

give me those, local tv, and fox sports net for the odd games and i'm a happy man.

I was actually thinking the other day about how long it has been since I've watched comedy central. Part of that is because its not in HD, part of it is because they dont really have any good programs anymore (at least in my opinion)

also, why am I not surprised that lafta included MTV in his top 5

4/4/2010 2:40:46 PM

^^ It can be exhausting to sometimes to see "This is being destroyed," "The people are being oppressed," "This war is going on," but I think that's the same with a lot journalism. I prefer it more for the mix of those stories with the ones about art, music, skating, food, and the miscellaneous quirky and counterculture things they detail.

5. and i'm torn between putting ESPN or CNN for the last. i guess i'll go with ESPN so i get some sports. i also really love HGTV and food but i could live without those.

4/4/2010 3:57:07 PM

yeah i'm mostly in it for the art... same reason why i like a lot of ovation channel's stuff
