There are some shows that I'd rather not miss, but I'll start out with a couple channels that I usually stop at regardless of what's playing:
The History Channel
The Science Channel
Beyond that, it's mostly channel surfing until something appealing comes on. Some shows that I'd probably stop for (but by no means make time for):
South Park
Doctor Who
Anthony Bourdain - No Reservations
Star Trek: The Next Generation
Firefly (Have the series on DVD, but if I see it, I'll stop to watch).
Iron Chef: America
Ghost in the Shell
Jeopardy (usually over by the time I get home)
MInnesota Twins/Vikings/Wild games

I only like Top Gear when they're out on a road trip/challenge. If they're just sitting in the studio chatting with some celeb... meh.
Oh and I'd like to see the return of Red Bull Air Racing! Paul Bonhomme FTW!!!!

Ha! That's my wife & my all time fav & I don't mind admitting it in public.StumpyBloke wrote:I'm an absolute sucker (haa see what I did there??) for Buffy The Vampire Slayer series - watching again as we speak!
Funny story, just a couple months back we decided to try indoor rock-climbing with another couple we hang out with. They were making fun of us (me specifically) about BTVS. Then, one of the regular climbers overheard the conversation and decided to interject saying he loved it too... He started telling us all his favorite episodes and story archs, etc... What made it even more funny was that this guy was a RIPPED MACHINE. He looked like the Greeks cut him straight from stone.
LOL

One of the best eps was Hush from season 4...it was a perfect blend of scare and comedy especially in the auditorium whilst Giles was doing the slide presentation and buffy did her infamous hand gesture!
