The Best Shows on TV

Ahh TV.  I spend way too much time with it, but who am I kidding?  I love TV.  It's hours and hours of entertainment at my fingertips and I don't have to think about a thing.  What more could you ask for?  Nothing, of course.  That's what it's for.  Here is my list of the best shows currently on TV (in no particular order).  I'm sure I'll forget something but whatever.

THE SIMPSONS
The show has been on for over 20 years and still delivers laughs consistently.  Easily my favorite show ever.


FAMILY GUY
This show was okay when it first came out but has really improved and definitely has a spot in my Tivo.


SPORTSCENTER
Still the best sports show around.  Some of the anchors are dumb and try to be too funny and it'll never be like it was when Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann were there, but it's still the best place to get the day's sports action.


NCIS
I never really got into Law & Order.  In fact, I hate Law & Order.  But this isn't really like Law & Order and I hate it when people group this show with that one.  All of the characters are very likeable and the story lines are well thought out.


JUSTIFIED
This one is new for me.  I only started watching this season but I love it through the first 3 episodes.  Very well thought out and different from the other cop-ish dramas on the tube.


MODERN FAMILY
This is something I waited too long to get into.  I knew that Sofia Vergara was on it and HOT as hell and that Ms. Vessey from Ed was on it too, not to mention Al Bundy, but I just didn't get into at the beginning.  I should have.  This show is funny and has a permanent spot in my Tivo rotation.


TOSH.0
This is another example of a type of show that I really dislike (clip show) but it works for me for some reason.  Daniel Tosh is the reason I suppose.  I liked his stand-up from the first time I saw him on Comedy Central and he makes the show.


FUTURAMA
I wish they would make more of these.  I really like this show.  Yeah, it's stupid.  So what?  It makes me laugh.  Don't judge me.  Okay, let's move on.


This post has gotten way longer than I intended so I'm gonna stop.  Maybe I'll do more another time but I doubt it.  I covered most of the good stuff.  I also just realized that they haven't made any new Futuramas for a while so I guess  it's not technically on TV right now other than reruns.  Whatever.  Oh, and I'd be remiss if I didn't thank whoever the guy that invented Tivo was.  Holy hell you are a freaking genius and I love you.  I can't imagine what life used to be like without your wonderful invention.  Thank you, Mr. Tivo.  Thank you.
