What TV shows have you QUIT watching ?

Is anyone still watching the shows they thought would be favorites at the beginning of the season?

I'd like to know which ones you found disappointing and thrown out of the mix, and which ones are you still watching?

Thrown out:

Bones, Medium, Supernatural, PrisonBreak.

Bones and supernatural were over-hyped, once I found out the formula, it bored me.

Prison Break has become very predictable, and I am jaded from how awesome OZ was in the prison drama category.

Medium is just getting "meh", boooring.

Still watching:

Apprentice this season, Psychic detectives, Real world (though i don't know why....), Parko P.I. (same night as Psychic detectives),Invasion (borderline lame), I can't think of others right now, I will update soon.

Bones:

My b/f and I watched the first show and that was it. You are right it was over-hyped.

Medium:

While repeats were on for all our other shows , we decided to check it out and we got hooked. When this season started we havent missed a show, we find it very intersting and very far from boring.

ALL of them, but not by choice. The cable system was wrecked by Rita, so we're waiting to get an antenna up, and Dish installed. I'm missing Lost, and Survivor. Lost is the critical one, though. It's hard to keep up when you miss shows.

All the Sci-Fi or supernatural shows, I have not bothered even watching because there are too many of them, and they aren't really my taste, but Lost is the only one I watch because it got a lot of buzz so I'm watching that.

I thought Prison Break is actually pretty good. Missed the first few episodes. Can't wait till the show comes back October 21?

Alias, I'm watching again. It's opposite Survivor, but I just switch back and forth, and they replay Alias on Sunday, so that's okay.

So no, there isn't any favorites at the start of the season I've stopped watching.

I used to watch religiously Will & Grace but haven't catched an episode this season... I also abandoned Joey (not a big loss)...
And I quit watching The Apprentice : Martha Stewart after only 2 episodes.

But the show I never thought I would stop watching (I was so hooked) but did is ER. I was a really big fan, but it just got... repetitive or I don't know... never ending...

I hate to admit this, but I have only watched 1 episode of TAR this season. We are hooked on Commander-in-Chief, and even though we have TIVO, haven't bothered to tape it. Embarassed

Really? TAR Family is not that bad. I wonder if Reichen is watching. I'm really missing his and Toni's TAR radio show at thefishbowl. Sad

I have stopped watching The Apprentice, CSI: New York, and although I have been taping Survivor and TAR, I'm like 4 episodes behind in viewing.

I find I'm watching a lot more scripted shows this season...Rome, My Name is Earl, The Office, Lost, repeats of Firefly...

I stopped watching Survivor (airs opposite Alias) and TAR. It's just not cutting it for me this season. It's become too hard to follow. I can't even keep track of the teams.

We also stopped watching CSI (Vegas) for that same reason. Too mush gore, not enough plot. The same thing goes for L&O:SVU. It lost me in the first episode this season when Elliot spent the whole episode baiting that parolee into kidnapping the girl & then beat the crap out of him. It just rubbed the wrong way in all the wrong places.

I'm still watching Survivor even though a lot of people I know have stopped or are not really digging this season.

I gave ABC's remake of "The Nightstalker" a chance, but I'm not liking it too much. I especially don't like the female character they've got playing opposite of Kolchak. He works alone.... However remembering this show from my childhood prompted me to get the old epsidoes on DVD through my Netfilx (which rocks) membership & I've been enjoying these all over again.

The show I look forward to most this season is 'My Name is Earl." Hugely amusing in my book.
