Fox. Aside from The Simpsons and Football on Sundays, most of their lineup is sh!t. The 'reality shows' they come up with are some of the worst programs ever, and their talk shows are getting their ratings from the white trash.
WB. They too have a couple decent shows, but now that they're starting to come out with their 'teen soaps' ie, One Tree Hill, they are going downhill too.

I agree, but I have to say that "The Gilmore Girls" is one of the better written and acted shows that isn't "Reality" on TV right now. One of the few things I make time to watch. love. it.

Not that i necessarily subscribe to the turn off the tv idea, there is a lot of crap on all the channels. That's why i have a DVR. I record what interests me and skip the rest.

Save yourself, Alyson. Don't watch it. It's the OC with a refreshing Mountain scent.

Jack and Bobby? I saw the first episode and it was okay, i thought. I like the flash forwards where the folks are talking about President McCallister. But i didn't get to see it last week because my DVR went wonky.
I tried watching Veronica Mars, but 15 minutes into the pilot i just couldn't watch it. The whole format was killing me.
This leaves me with Joan of Arcadia which i'll be watching for the first time this week (i recorded the season premiere).
If i don't like that one, i'll be left with all of 1 new show this season: Lost.

The WB had their shot when they had Pinky and the Brain. But they dumped it, and the curse will remain. 
They can only partially redeem themselves by getting rid of Michigan J. Frog.

It's a crappy Fox primetime drama. God knows that Jimmy's been sleeping with his brother's wife, who's also been with Jimmy's son.
Or something like that.

Does anyone watch Nip/Tuck or Rescue Me?
I'm a fan of Rescue me, but I've only seen 1 1/2 episodes. The reality of the firehouse and who's sleeping with who is fun.

Just when you think "reality" shows can't get any dumber or in more bad taste along comes Fox and WB with their answers. I'm guessing "Reality Show Mania" will finally cease after someone is severelt injured on one of the stunts. Or, the network gets their patoot sued big time.
Wife and daughter are hooked on Gilmore Girls and used to watch Boston Public.
When all else fails, I turn to AMC, TCM, History Channel or Food Network.
