  • Law and Order
  • 24
  • The Shield
  • Nip/Tuck
  • The Sopranos (added on 3rd edit)

LilpunkSkater: I cannot believe someone else watches the pretender AND home improvement, both are favorites. I've seen almost every episode of home improvement, and have started watching the pretender religiously.

Did you watch the pretender when the series was still on NBC?

  • The Simpsons (sneakily listening to the DVDs right now at work whilst coding - I know them so well I don't need to watch!)
    Fairly Odd Parents (Recently discovered them on the Cartoon Network whilst visiting my parents - that Cosmo cracks me up and I love a show that makes no sense!)
    Futurama and Family Guy are good too - do I watch too many cartoons?
Also currently enjoying Bad Lad's Army and seeing all these self declared "Hard Lads" crying for their mothers every week... :lol:

Myself, my father and my sister were all pretender fans. We'd watch it every night that it was on (NBC) and loved it all. Great show, too bad it's not on anymore..
Also, home improvement was extremely funny, me and my dad were discussing it yesterday actually.

and kettle_drum, I didn't say seinfeld because it's funny, but not THAT funny. it's a lot of dumb humor, and gets old sometimes. simpsons however, now THAT is funny. :)
