NBC is pretty much the only one of the "big four" that I'm going to be watching this season.

Friday Night Lights
Heroes
Studio 60 (I loved the pilot, BTW)
Saturday Night Live
30 Rock
Scrubs
The Office
Late Night with Conan O'Brien

ABC has a couple of titles I'll be watching (The Nine, Daybreak, Traveler). CBS has only one (Jericho). Fox has three (Family Guy, American Dad, and The OC).

I'm really surprised by this. Normally my viewing habits are pretty much even between the big four. Anyone else have one they're going to be predominantly watching this season?

You don't watch Lost?

What about 24?

Fox as usual (The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, American Idol, 24).

NBC is runner up with The Office and SNL (Heroes is up in the air).

No and nope.

I watched the first several episodes of Lost during season one. I stopped watching when I realized the show was going to be A) more work than it was worth and B)containing lots of filler and fluff to extend the "mystery".

I've never really bothered with 24. The co-creators are epic douchebags.

Oh god. I don't know if I should count this out, since it's going to reveal that I watch way way way way way too much TV.

CW
Veronica Mars

NBC
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (we'll see if I keep watching it, though)
Friday Night Lights
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit
30 Rock

Fox
House
The Simpsons/Family Guy (only sometimes)
The O.C. (when it comes back in November, although I might not keep watching)
American Idol/24 (when they come back in January)

ABC
Dancing With the Stars (again, only sometimes)
Lost
The Nine
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
Desperate Housewives
Brothers & Sisters (same situation as Studio 60)

CBS
How I Met Your Mother
Two and a Half Men
The New Adventures of Old Christine
Survivor
The Amazing Race

So I guess ABC wins.

Right now my list is:

CW: Veronica Mars

NBC: The Office, Scrubs, Studio 60 (for now)

And that's about it. I may put some other stuff on my season pass once I get my TiVo. But for now, this is it. I think last season made me hate tv.

For some reason, I've always been almost strictly drawn to ABC. I really don't know what it is about it but I have a strong bias for it. I always find myself rooting for it. Even though I don't call myself a Grey's Anatomy fan anymore and disliked the finale, I was sooooo eager for it to beat CSI, probably a great show that I just never really watched.

Over the years, I've watched the first few seasons of Survivor on CBS, the last few seasons of Friends and the mid-seasons of Will and Grace on NBC and that's really about it. And for one year, I didn't miss an episode of the WB show Jack and Bobby but they cancelled that.

I grey up on Boy Meets World as a young kid/teenager.
Once and Again and then Alias just about dominated my teen years.
Now I'm hooked onto Lost and Housewives.
Oh ya, and my family, as so many, were hooked to Millionaire at its peak.

Most of the other shows I've grown to REALLLY love I cought either on DVD or cable... Arrested Development, Nip/Tuck, Rescue Me, Six Feet Under.

This season, I will be watching at most, probably 4 shows on network TV.

Lost
Desperate Housewives
Brothers and Sisters
Grey's Anatomy (I may eventually drop this one)

all on abc.

Same here. It's pretty much NBC with a mix of a couple of other networks. I'll watch Grey's Anatomy on ABC, the Sunday FOX lineup, and maybe Lost if I can get into the DVD's soon. Other than that, it's all NBC.
