Why I'm here

I have a mild obsession with TV.
It used to be worse, but I have relapses just about this time each year.

Smartfile was really the beginning of it all. It was the videotape precursor to Tivo with an on screen guide and a menu of what was on the tape.
Up till this point I was really only able to watch 1 show in any given time slot. In the beginning, I would only record another show occasionally, then it got progressively worse. There once was a time that I had 4 VCRs recording at a time and even cataloged entire serieseses all on the inferior VHS format (beta rocked).
I have made a spreadsheet for my TV viewing for the last 5 years or so. One year I made personalized versions for some friends that highlighted shows I thought they should watch with comments on why they would like it.

But that was in the past, now I just have a mild obsession. This current level of TV interest doesn't let me watch every show, but I try and give every show that interests me at least 2 chances. I admit that I have unexplainable aversions to some shows or actors, but usually I did give it a chance.
Right now I am watching about 25 hours of primetime network TV, but that is down from about 35 hours 2 years ago.
I will eventually get down to around 20 hours of full season viewing, usually watching at least 2 bad shows for no good reason.
My current addiction fueling technology gives me the ability to record as many as 5 shows at a time with my Tivo and 2 Comcast dual tuner DVRs.

So that gets us back to why I am here. I would like to offer you guidance on your Fall 2006 Television viewing. I am not sure how I am going to go about it, but I will try and give my opinion on as many shows as I can.
Good Luck
