For years I have seriously considered getting a Tivo/PVR?MythTV setup just to play with the technology, but I can honestly say that there is so little on the TV that I am really interested these days that I haven't bothered. (I'm not a Luddite really!!)
SWMBO does watch ER and Nip/Tuck (she's a nurse, so those kind of shows crack her up) and she also watches all the makeover and shows so I occasionally see a bit of them.
I tend to mostly see shows that are effective as standalone episodes - the only exclusions being all of Buffy (just for Buffy, Willow and Spike's accent) and any motor-racing or sailing programmes.
Sadly the main thing I watch these days (aside from general MTV channels) is Pimp My Ride. This could have something to do with generally working 70 or 80 hour weeks and needing something very lowbrow in my wind-down phase after work.
At some point I may get all the DVD's of 24 and watch it - as it does sound good.
