I don't watch much TV at all, especially because I still haven't replaced my lightning struck one. If I want to watch a TV show I'll normally stream it somewhere or download the series. Having that said though there are surprisingly a fair amount of things I like. Just to name a few: Mythbusters, Human Weapon, Brainiac, Fight Science, Pawn Stars, The Office.. I also like the different MMA organizations like Strikeforce and the WEC, but I only really follow the fighters that I'm a fan of, which of course I usually can find online.

As far as cartoons go, (this is just my opinion guys, no need to argue) screw the new cartoons. That includes Naruto and Bleach...bleh. I am a fan of Hellsing though and I've been meaning to check out Fist Of The North Star for years now. xD

The real answer to why Kenshiro gets so high pitched is because he was inspired by Bruce Lee.

I watch Eggheads occasionally when I'm having my tea and can't be arsed to sit at the table. I always think I could do better than the idiot contestants they serve up just to get thrashed each night.

I'll also catch Newsnight, Question Time and Match of the day and stuff like that, but no drama shows anymore. Used to watch Frasier every morning, but since they stopped the Bamboozle quiz on channel 4 it just doesn't seem worth straining my eyes when I'm tired.
Tic Tac, sir?

Also, because it's awesome. Unlike Naruto.
Naruto isn't that bad. I geuss it does sometimes get dum when Naruto actes stupid at some points but those are just minor problems. I like it. One thing is the opening song which is really awsome.

The real problem with Naruto?

The anime series: 70% fillers, 30% actual story.

Hokuto No Ken? 50% manly tears and violence, 30% moving story (both in Manga and Anime), 20% high pitch screams.

Watch it in a language you don't understand and then you'll see just how little happens in it. Even the fights are usually just two people staring at each other from opposite ends of the room waiting for the others standing at the side to finish their friendly chat.

You have a point. Some fights just continue for 5 episodes or more and the only thing you see is both looking at each other and thinking...

but other than that, It is fun.
But that's just my oppinion.
Wait a minute, why am I talking about naruto? I am a sonic fan for god sake! AHhhhhhhhhh! Naruto is taking over me! Take it off, take it off, TAKE IT OFF! AHHHHHhh!
This discussion is OVER!
