1. House - TV's best, bar none.
2. Prison Break - A great serialized thrill of a series.
3. The OC - Been a fan from the beginning because of the great cast and mostly solid writing.
4. Threshold - Fun (and funny in a quirky way) sci-fi actioner with a great cast.
5. The King of Queens - One of the most underrated shows on TV,
Other contenders:
Nip/Tuck (Narrowly missed inclusion in the top 5 only because some episodes are less than inspiring, others are infuriating)
How I Met Your Mother - Mix of heart and humor imminently likable.
Two and a Half Men - The last few seasons were quite good but this season has been less than hilarious.
Reunion - Inventive idea but it remains to be seen whether the show can sustain any sort of momentum.
The Simpsons - Evergreen TV series that draws many laughs.
Killer Instinct - Gruesome mix of horror, mystery, and dark comedy.
Criminal Minds - Superbly written crime drama similar in concept to "Killer Instinct" and just as entertaining.
Bones - Decent mystery with a good cast.

Heh, current shows?
I'm in the same situation as publicenemy#1. The only ones I can keep up with are Lost and The Simpsons. Don't even have time to watch South Park anymore. : (

Lost is an infuriating show. It teases but never reveals anything, which became frustrating enough that I gave up on it midway through last season and don't regret it. There are so many other shows to watch, after all.

You think this season for either one is excellent?

I think that The Simpsons is much better than it has been in recent years and that Family Guy is still the best show on television.

Both are my two favorites ever, but as for this season (which I just noticed isn't the reason for this thread...my bad), I've seen better from both.
Sorry, I misunderstood the thread...
Top 5 of the Season:
1. Lost
2. The Simpsons
3. Family Guy
4. Everybody Hates Chris
5. The Apprentice
Top 4 Shows:
1. The Simpsons
2. Family Guy
3. The Apprentice
4. Lost
Can't think of a fifth.

5. Scrubs, but since that doesn't come on till midseason it'd be The Office/My Name Is Earl.

1. 24
2. Lost
3. Veronica Mars
4. Prison Break
5. Arrested Development
For the heck of it
6. Alias
7. House
8. American Dad/Family Guy
9. Desperate Housewives
10. CSI
11. Survivor
12. Curb Your Enthusiasm/Extras
13. My Name is Earl/The Office
Hard list to make. I put 24 there, because I think I'm more excited about 24 than any other show, even if it's not on until January. I also watch Curb Your Enthusiasm and Extras on HBO, and will watch Deadwood when it returns, but... yeah.
Edit: DAMN IT. My Name is Earl and The Office, too. I watch a lot of shows regularily. This list doesn't include my guilty pleasure every week: WWE Raw.

Fags. I used to watch wrestling when I was younger. Those were the days where it was begining to decline. It's so sad now.
