Since the Book Project is done and there's two weeks before I can do anything with Ian...

Fingertip bandaids are a thing you always have a ton of  when you don't need them but can't find when you do. Anyhoo, here's a

Bug Juice -this also, I think at least three. I remember the show enough to remember the theme song.
Chappelle’s Show

Charmed
Cheers
Chicago Hope
Cold Case
Columbo
Commander in Chief
Coupling

Dragnet
Due South

Emergency!
Entourage
ER --pretty sure I've seen three
Even Stevens
Everwood
Everybody Loves Raymond

Family Ties
Farscape
Fawlty Towers
Felicity
Firefly --I should star my own personal favorite shows or something. Hey, I notice Freaks and Geeks isn't on here. These people suck.

Pokemon
Power Rangers -- too many times, thank you Danny's Fixations!
Prison Break

Rome
Roseanne
Roswell
Saved by the Bell
Scarecrow and Mrs. King

So Weird
South Park

Stargate Atlantis
Stargate SG-1
Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip
Superman
Supernatural
Surface
Survivor
Taxi --another of my favorite Nick at Nite shows. Hey, they didn't have Mary Tyler Moore on here! Oh, strike that, I see the "The"s are yet to come. Stupid people don't know you're supposed to skip "The" when you're alphabetizing!

The Mary Tyler Moore Show ---THERE we go, thank you.
The Mighty Boosh
The Monkees
The Munsters
The Mythbusters --okay, and I believe this show is simply called MYTHBUSTERS, making the "THE" EXTRA wrong to alphabetize by! Seriously, you survey people watch too much TV and it makes your literacy skills fail. ;)
The O.C.
The Office (UK) --I had this on my Netflix queue though. Then I took it off because one of the libraries has it. But I haven't actually GOTTEN it yet.
The Office (US) -- I'd probably watch this regularly if I ever remembered to.
The Pretender
The Real World -- I don't think I've seen THREE episodes ever
The Shield
The Simpsons
The Six Million Dollar Man
The Sopranos
The Suite Life of Zack and Cody
The Tudors
The Twilight Zone --actually, I think there was a color version in the eighties? I think I got in three episodes of that. Which is weird because SESAME STREET terrified me in those days
The Waltons
The West Wing
The Wonder Years --this was a coming-of-age show for me, too. It was how I discovered I actually (gasp) LIKED BOYS.
The X-Files --three episodes in the past two days, in fact! Not that I haven't watched more than that before. Like the first four and a half seasons all in a row over the past few months, and random later episodes actually on TV...
Third Watch
Three’s Company
Torchwood
Top Gear
Tru Calling
Twin Peaks
Twitch City
Ugly Betty
Veronica Mars

Will and Grace
Wonderfalls
Xena: Warrior Princess

I love talking about TV, but I rarely watch it. I love reading  TV Guide, too. It's a strange quirk of mine. It's a bit like me deciding I wanted to be a photojournalist in 7th grade, but never taking pictures. Sort of.

I'm thinking of doing this one, but I'm ashamed to admit how much TV I watch.

[rockinlibrarian.livejournal.com]

It's funny how many of these shows I HAVE watched though when I almost NEVER watch TV anymore. Well, when it's actually being broadcast as opposed to renting, you know, entire seasons of the X-Files on DVD. So it's not necessarily any indication of couch-potatoism!

You haven't even seen three episodes of Futurama? Did you see one and not like it, or just never even try watching it?

I'm also bugged by people who don't leave off the articles when alphabetizing. My MP3 player also keeps them in, although it's a little more excusable for a machine. {g}

[rockinlibrarian.livejournal.com]

I've never even seen ONE episode of Futurama, nor, as far as I know, had the opportunity to that wouldn't have me going out of my way (because usually I won't go out of my way to watch TV, which is why I was so amused to see how many shows I DO have). I might like it quite a lot, but for that.

The new version of Windows Media Player I got with this computer FINALLY skips the articles. Which is very nice, because a lot of time I skip the articles when typing in band names from music I upload that comes off disks I made from records and tapes and such-- when it doesn't come with album info-- and then it mixes with the uploads from CDs and then your machine thinks "Beatles" and "The Beatles" are two separate artists and won't play them ALL if you're trying to get it to play all your Beatles music (although my computer seems to be on a Beatles kick this morning and is doing so anyway. That and Fleetwood Mac for some reason). But like I said, Windows Media Player DOESN'T do this anymore so that's good. LiveJournal "interests" lists should learn to do this too.

Well, I'm pretty sure you can get it on Netflix. I'd say to check it out if you enjoy nerdy humor.

iTunes skips the articles when alphabetizing, but there are still a lot of programs that don't, and it's pretty annoying. Also annoying is how my MP3 player considers, say, "Frank Black," Frank Black and the Catholics," and "Frank Black & the Catholics" to be three separate artists, but I would imagine that's much less easily remedied than the article thing.
