I haven't had a favourite TV program for some time. I hardly ever get time to watch TV nowadays with taking my daughter to swimming training. However, a new series has begun in Australia. It is called "Patrol Boat". It is a drama based on the navy patrolling our northern waters to stop illegal activities. We have a lot of illegal activities occur, such a fishing in our waters, illegal immigrants, catching protected fish, & more seriously, bringing in drugs to Australia. This drama series has some excellent actors too. Fortunately I am home from my daughters swimming just before it starts each thursday night. Wjat is your Favourite TV program?

Theres a show on I think the History Channel or Discovery Channel called "How It's Made". Each half hour show has 2 or more different items on that show us how it's made from start to finish. I've seen them make canoes, generators, light bulbs, wrenches, trucks, tarctors, different foods etc. You get the idea. Anything and everything in time is shown on this show. I like seeing how things are made then I slap my forehead saying, "Ohhh so thats "Hoe It's Made". Hmmm?" HAHAHA! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

The only television show I ever watch is the reality program SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE?...a lot of entertainment mixed into that show and the judges are way more fun than the stuffy old American Idol

Right now my favorite program is Dirty Jobs, on the Discovery Channel. It's about a guy who goes to people's jobs to learn how they do their work. He visits the unsung heroes, if you will. The blue collar jobs, or the jobs no one else wants to do. He's been a dog groomer, a sewer cleaner, an ostrich farmer, a tanner (deer tannery), firefighter, construction worker, and more.

Unfortunately I have a lot of favorite t.v. shows. I can't miss an episode of Grey's Anatomy, the new show Greek, One Tree Hill, Heroes and October Road. Although there were a lot of new shows last year, I forced myself to keep busy while they were on because I didn't want to get hooked. However, I did recently get hooked on the show My Boys after they ran the first season marathon. Oh well!!

A long time ago I used to watch an australian series about rescue in the australian coast. It was a nice show, way much better than Baywatch, for instance. Too bad I couldn't see it anymore. They just stopped showing it here in my country. I think I would like to see this new series you are talking about. As for your question, my favorites shows now are Lost, Bones, Dexter, Criminal Minds, House.

Yes, I remember the rescue p[rogram you are talking about. Patrol Boat will probably come to your country eventually.

That sounds like an interesting show. My favorite show is called House. Its about a very smart doctor. I usually prefer medical shows anyway. My other favorite show is called ER.

My favorite program is Perry Mason. This show is only on in reruns and I watch it at lunch time each week day. Each show, Perry must figure out who did the crime and he solves it with help from other people. The show is based on Earle Stanley Gardner, who had been a local resident, but has passed away sadly. He was a great lawyer in this area, who never lost a case. The building that he worked in still stands and is quite interesting to see.

I do not watch very much TV at home, except for 2 or 3 hours a night. My current favourite TV program is Prison Break. This is one of the series I follow quite diligently. But you may be surprised if I tell you that aside from TV serials, my favourite program is the half hour local English news that comes on every night. I'm very interested in current affairs and news happenings both in my country and around the world, so I find the news program very interesting to follow. Last night, I also saw the first episode of a new weekly show "America's Got Talent", and boy, what an interesting and entertaining show it was. It reminds me of a previous show "30 secs of fame", which also showcased talented people showing off their skills.

Your words wake up my memories.There was a very famous sitcom in the USA during 80s, which is The Pain of Growth.I like it very much. It portrays a common family with 3 children and their bitter and sweet.I liked Mike very much, the eldest child of the family. He was humorous, smart,kind but naughty.From these three child, I can recall a lot of things about my life and childhood.In my eyes, it is specially worthy of watching for parents, because they will meet alot of troubles similiar from the sitcom. In addition, I like Friends very much.It is the shadow of the real world.How face love and friendship, loyalty and lie and so on, they are also questions we need to solve.The attractive actors and humorous plots are very important elements.
