List your "Can't Miss" shows

[Jobydrone]

This topic started out as a reply on another thread where I was lamenting at how many great shows there are right now that I consider "can't miss", in other words shows that I would be really upset if I didn't see on or really close to air date.  I'm finding it really hard to fit everything in these days because of how much I am enjoying new shows and returning favorites.  I'm curious to see other people's lists on here.  Remember these are not shows you just kind of like, but shows that you would freak out about and consider larceny if you missed an episode.  Here's my list, including shows on now and shows that are coming soon:

The Office
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Dexter
Fringe
Lost
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Chuck
24
Breaking Bad
Burn Notice
Big Love
Californication
Survivor (well my wife would freak out and make me miserable if we missed this one)

Please post yours!

Man, you still have time for WoW and a weekly podcast?  *bows*

[Rico]

LOL!  Well, a fair number of those shows are not currently airing (about 7 of them are off-air now).  Oh, and I don't play WOW very much.  Heck, it took me almost 5 years of playing WOW to get one character to level 80!

[Jobydrone]

Ha ha, I was just teasing, and I know it would be a prerequisite for you to have a pretty broad base of experience with current media for your great podcast to remain relevant!

I find it really hard to balance all these great shows, along with getting in some time gaming, and of course work and spending enough quality time with my young family.  I think I get about four hours sleep a night on average.

[Rico]

TIVO helps a great deal (an hour show is about 42 min. after skipping commercials).  I really only watch one or two shows each evening on average.  Even find time for a movie or two as well on some days.  I don't game as much as I used to and my boys are at college so the demands on my time are much less - except for the whole job hunting thing.  ;)

[Bromptonboy]

Lost
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Battlestar Galactica
Entourage

Won't say Stargate Universe or Flash Forward yet, but there's a high chance they will be added to the list when I've seen more.

[Ktrek]

Holy Moly! You guys watch an awful lot of TV shows! We currently are following

NCIS
NCIS Los Angeles - Might drop this one if it does not improve
Flash Forward
Stargate Universe - The jury is still out here. I might drop this
Legend of the Seeker - This is a take it or leave it for me. It just has not grabbed me to be a must see but I have watched every episode so far.

That's it! I find very little on TV worth my time. I'd much rather watch a classic movie or our Star Trek DVDs.
