  1. Out of ALL the shows listed above, I watch just TWO shows faithfully on NBC: Medium and Friday Night Lights.

    NBC used to be the best network on television. Remember Must See TV? Hill Street Blues, Cheers, Cosby, Family Ties, L.A. Law, Wings, Frasier, Seinfeld, Will and Grace, and Friends were some of the best programs in the history of television.

    Lately, however, NBC has really gone downhill in programming, as has CBS. If it weren't for Ghost Whisperer and The Amazing Race, I wouldn't watch CBS either!

    Now ABC and Fox seem to be the most happening networks.

  1. I find myself watching fewer hours of prime time network program each season. It appears the trend will continue during the 2008-2009 season.
