im suprised none of you watch "24"...friekin adrenaline pumping...its like drinking a cup of coffee.

although i dont watch many tv shows when they come on t.v.., because of time constraints.. i usually record them or download them.

1. Much Love for Scrubs
2. The Office (american version)
3. Heroes <--just got into this one.

And i dont even have a TV, so i watch very little, but always leave some time for weekly laughs. In case you were counting Putis, Scrubs has 100% more votes than Sienfeld.

Ya, but Seinfeld is widely accepted as one of the greatest TV shows of all time, and was very successful for 9 years, Scrubs is finishing it's sixth(?) and last season, and it's definitely not considered one of the great TV shows of all time. Good, but not great.

Zuneologist, Do you by change have the other half of this amulet? XP

My List Top 3
#1. 24(Been watching since 2001)
#2. Lost(Got all caught up and Love it)
#3. Family guy(One of the most hilarious shows on tv in years.)

I too watch Daily Show & Colbert. But not as "religiously" as I do the others.

i'll probably do a full conversion of Heroes to a Zune format, most likely WMV since I don't think anyone has figured out how to sync MP4 yet. Would people prefer to have it displayed in the original aspect ratio as shown on HDTV or would people prefer to have the edges cropped to have it fit the full screen?

I would normally NEVER condone the second option, but since the screen is so small already, the widescreen format wastes a sizable portion of the screen...

I personally like the original aspect ratio.

Yeah I have them in AVI format. Right now I have the 540p with 5.1 Dolby Dig audio. They run at about 700MB but of course they will be compressed from 540 lines to about 180 lines for the Zune, and audio will be converted to stereo. I'll do the conversion when I get home this weekend.
