We've been talkin books...whats your favorite show?

I am not sure, but I think it will be like a "life and times" type show.  A biography of the family during its heyday.  There is so much history with this family, not only the paper, but the shaping of Los Angeles itself.

My wife and I usually watch TV in separate rooms, but we do join together to watch LOST, Desperate Housewives, Flash Forward and a few others. I'm a news, history and documentary junkie, so I love PBS, the History Channel, etc.

ESPN, Golf Ch., Nat. Geo., History & History Intl, Military Ch., Jay Leno, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Office, PBS, Discover, Science Ch., BBC Amer., The 3 C-Spans.  I take Netflix for movies, (watching the "BallyKissAngel" Irish series, just finished "MI-5" and James Herriot's "All Creatures, Great and Small".... love the brits shows....the Scottish "Monarch of the Glen," all of the "Sherlock Holmes" series with Jeremy Brett as Holmes, The Singing Detective" (great Mini-series) "House of Cards Trilogy" (another great mini-series) all of John LeCarre Stuff-"Smileys People"   "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (all great mini-series).... enjoyed "Six Feet Under" and Robert B. Parker's "Jesse Stone" series of movies.   Netflix is a goldmine for entertainment... have 140 movies in my queue, will probably be dead before I get through them all.... have stopped going to the local theatre, just wait until it comes on Netflix. .... watch college football on Saturdays (Go UGA) and Pro football on Sundays.  Watch very few american series shows.... most seem pretty quirky.

I LOVE college  basketball (esp. KU), NFL football, Dancing w/the stars, game shows, How it's made, Antique Roadshow, America's Got talent, Pro Bowling, Pro golf, and FOX news.  And a good book close by, when all of the above are not too "whoopy".

Hey, I like a girl who places quote marks around "whoopy."

[Varmit]

Don't watch alot of tv, but when I do its History Channel, espcially their "what if" type of shows,  Nat. Geographic, Animal Planet, Outdoor Channel.  I cannot stand sitcoms or the Dancing w/ the Stars, American Idol type of programs.  Man vs. Wild, Survivorman, Surviving Disaster, are some of my favorites.

Anybody been watching the Ken Burns "National Park" series on PBS this week??  What great history on our 58 national parks.   

[redcliffsw]

I'm not watching it, however here's an editorial by Gary North about the natioal parks.
By the way, the states ought to own the national parks and public lands too.  Other than post offices
and military posts, the feds should not own lands.

Isn't Ken Burns the guy who did not get the history of the Civil War right either?

Ghost Whisperer, Army Wives, Secret Life of the American Teenager, Lincoln Heights, I love watching the Dancing shows, So you think you can dance and theres some other ones. Not really into survivor or that much reality tv
