I'm bored and there isn't really anything to do right now. Since Mythbusters isn't on, I was wondering what I should watch.

Any suggestions?

My favorite show is Code Monkeys (see pic.) 








I also love to watch South Park, Tosh.0, Bleach, Code Geass, Guren Lugaan, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Comedy Central Presents, and MANswers.

You bored? Go to FAKKU.net. DO NOT go there if you don't know what hentai is! That site is NSFW! NSFW! Only if you know what hentai is.

Completely bored? Get some vaccines. LOL. shots hurt!

I'm gonna say House.  He might be an asshole but he is a hilarious one.

God I love that show.  Your avatar always cracks me up man:

George Sr.: Soak the puppet's mouth with ether, and have Franklin give Lucille a kiss to knock her out.
Gob: [as Franklin] I ain't kissin' that ol' bitch.
George Sr.: [starts to choke Franklin] That's my wife, you bastard.
Gob: Dad, that's my wrist.


Also a vote for South Park.

I do have to agree to an extent. The show's greatness didn't resonate with me fully until about 5 episodes when I realized "Oh shit this show actually has a plan behind its seemingly random editing, narration and situations."

That scene was great lol. Later, Lucille wakes up and says "Why am I in a Nordstrom bag". First thing out of her mouth. It cracked me up.

I watch next to no TV, But watched DVDs of seasons 1-3 of Arrested Development a while back. Best thing to ever come out of the US.
If you fancy watching some fantastic UK TV, watch the Top Gear specials on BBC iplayer. Best show in the UK, just 3 guys dicking around with cars, it's fucking hilarious.

I think I've convinced 10 people I know that Arrested Development is the best show of the 2000s.  Punk asses were too stupid to watch it when it was on though. My favorite shows now are 30 Rock, Lost, Monk and Psych. All of which are midseason now. You're welcome.

I loved the episode where the team beat the crap out of the red Toyota Truck, thrashing it in the ocean, driving it though campers, and putting it on top of the soon to be demolished 30 story or so high building. The Lotus vs. Apache helicopter was good fun as well.

British TV, I keep hearing how great it is, but I just cant get into it?
It may be me, I kinda like half of the episodes of mighty boosh. Total assumptioin it is British but I think its a safe one to make.

The original UK Office is hilarious.  Instead of just being offensive, it's very awkward (which is awesome).  Also just watched a British TV called Peep Show that was very funny but also very awkward.  Kind of a modern odd couple, which is cliche I know but it is a pretty awesome show (when the one guy grows out a mustache to look just like the black dude he falls in love with, it's just probably the funniest thing I've ever seen)

I have seen both of those shows and they are both very "OK" I do watch the US Office somewhat regularly and I think it is miles better.

 Of course I mean when they are being funny and not when they are ramming John Kransky down my throat.  "He is such an average dude, everyone can relate to him"

NO! FUCK THAT! He is the hipster douche who brings an acoustic guitar to parties and who is every bit as awkward as everyone else but since he is a snappy dresser and spends an hour to make his hair look like he just rolled out of bed he comes off as endearing.  I am genuinely awkward and i actually just woke up and I come off as a mess...

Wait, what happened I blacked out there for a second?

Anyway yeah , I just dont think UK tv is for me

Fair enough, UK comedy is certainly not for everyone (besides Monty Python and the Holy Grail, if you don't think that movie is awesome get out)

Agreed on Kransky.  Dude is a hack.

UK and US TV is and will always be different. The reason I recommended a show like Top Gear, is because appeals to the US. A lot of UK shows don't, but that's ok, I prefer that we don't make to specifically tailored to cater for a worldwide audience. Personally i think British shows have a funnier written script and rely less on sight/ gags.

Also slightly off point but, there was a show in the UK called Red Dwarf and I think it highlights the differences beautifully. For example it first aired in the 80's and ran for about 54 ish episodes. It was a sitcom about 4 guys lost in space. 2 of those 4 guys, including the lead hero, were black, and I never noticed until it was pointed out to me that in all those episodes there was never a joke about race. It was never mentioned or implied in any way, not because it was politically correct, but because it didn't need to be, it was a show about 4 guys lost in space. In the US there would have been a black joke in about the first 3 minutes.
