Used to be a fan a few years ago. Now they just get on my nerves. Too scripted and the races are always contrived. Mrs H loves it though.

Three re-runs that I like are Frasier, Curb your Enthusiasm and Seinfeld
 
How about University Challenge? I love that - but its downright impossible. Most of the time i don't even understand the question! I'm ashamed to say that my record is 11 correct answers in the entire 30mins.

"Dancing with stars? Dancing on Ice? Stars on Ice? Dancing on the moon?
All these dancing programmes really get on my wick!"

The best programmes on tv for me are
Scrubs
Family Guy
Long Way Down
Ramsays kitchen nightmares

Grand Design and Property Ladder with Sarah Beanie. I don't even recognise most of the names of the once above. Except Homes in the Sun- and that's rubbish ( IMO natch).

Oh yes, I agree with Grand Designs and Property Ladder. I also love Location Location, and I even like the 'A Place in the Sun one'!
I like them so much that I want to get them on DVD (since I live abroad, and just get to watch clips on YouTube). But since none apart from Grand Designs are available on DVD I went as far a writing to the production companies for a copy!

Other favs - What not to Wear, Frazier, and in their day glamorous American series like Dynasty and Dallas.
 
took to watching Boston Legal on Rte on Tuesdays - usually on around 0.30 am ( which suits me fine)
confess to LOL at some of the sketches. Characters are funny and brilliantly acted.
 
Agree with a lot of the above - Frasier, Seinfeld, Scrubs, Family Guy, to a lesser extent American Dad, Location, Property Ladder, Grand Designs, A Place in the Sun, Law & Order, CSI Las Vegas, haven't gotten into the NY one yet. I still enjoy CSI Miami - I just find David Caruso hilarious - is there nothing Horatio Kane can't do / is he ever stuck for exactly the right dramatic line? :D

My husband loves Top Gear, QI, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Dragons Den, Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, and anything with a football.

ps: Also love Black Books and King of Queens...

Dragons Den, The Apprentice, Property Ladder, Grand Designs, Eggheads, Michael Palin's travel programmes (New Europe is the latest I think)and RTE had a travel show called something along the line of 'How low can you go' which unfortunately doesn't seem to be on anymore :(

Thought Shameless and The Green Wing were great initially but the former ran out of steam and series 2 of TGW was a pale imitation.

I loved Green Wing-nobody i ever asked had seen it! Shameless is brilliant too!

Re:the Clinic...not the best programme but one of the better acted irish dramas..started watching it a few weeks ago and find myself flickin onto it on a sunday night...after The Long Way Down and Top Gear too..excellent!
 
Though I like CSI Miami , I read a review where it said "best show on tv..but will someone please tell David Caruso he is NOT Marlon Brando" !!

Otherwise..24, Prison Break or the essential Fawlty Towers and Blackadder repeats on UKGold.
