So it's a pretty good time to be a TV aficionado. There are good shows every day of the week. Here's my current list, along with my grades for them:
Monday: The Blacklist, Resurrection, Bates Motel (just ended but including it anyways because you should all watch it, Vera Farmiga just kills it)
Tuesday: Person of Interest, Fargo (Coen Brothers, Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman, what a fucking great show)
Wednesday: Revolution (I have no idea why it's called Revolution, but it has Giancarlo Esposito, so...)
Thursday: The Americans (I'm sure some of you hate this show but I love this espionage shit)
Friday: Hannibal (Amazing show and it's crazy what they can get away with on a network show)
Saturday: Orphan Black (Everyone needs to watch this immediately, without reading anything about it. I don't care who you are, you will like this show)
Sunday: Continuum (So stupid politically, but pretty good as sci-fi), Silicon Valley (Mike fucking Judge!), American Dad, Believe (It's getting pretty good, although a show headed up by Alfonso Cuaron and J.J. Abrams should be an A+ endeavor), The Good Wife (So, so bourgeois, literally, but still a toss-up between this and Hannibal for best show on network television right now), Game of Thrones (I'm gonna binge watch all the episodes when the season's done, I have to get into a groove with this show)
I'm also looking forward to Rosemary's Baby this Sunday, with Zoe Saldana. With Fargo, Hannibal and Bates Motel, that's four classic movies that are being reimagined by television shows with great results thus far.
If anyone reads this thread, and you're gonna include spoilers, first state the show you're spoiling and then use spoiler tags.

Sunday: American Dad, The Simpsons, Family Guy(I kind of hate Family Guy but it's on in between so I end up watching it), Cosmos
Monday: Warehouse 13(there's only two episodes left and they ruined it, since Pyka is disgusting and probably going to happen), The Boondocks
Tuesday: Fargo(I'm nuts about it, so glad I gave it a chance)
Saturday: Orphan Black
Looking forward to the return of True Blood, which is fun now just for the train wreck factor, Defiance, and Orange is the New Black.

Monday: The Boondocks
Tuesday: Fargo(I'm nuts about it, so glad I gave it a chance)
Add Bob's Burgers on Sunday and that's basically the series' I follow. Fox Sunday for me is sort of a pleasant picture show I put on.
I am taking a liking to FX. I gotta catch up on the American version of The Bridge before July.
Also I get some "news" from Univision from 6-7pm and 11-12pm. I find the news kind of a hassle to watch ever since I became a socialist, but nothing else is on at that point and I don't want it to be quiet at home.

I don't watch TV, unless it's the occasional episode of Futurama or Star Trek, but I watch Boondocks online.

Random stuff on NetFlix that my wife likes- (Person of Interest, Grimm) and BBC soap opera EastEnders (again, my wife's choice). Also Mentalist ansd Archer, which we both enjoy.
I get to watch Stewart Lee when he's on BBC and Have I Got News For You
No satellite or aerial so it's all via the PS3 on NetFlix, BBC i Player and Demand 5, so not a strict schedule except with some BBC and Channel 5 shows.

I've got a TV but that's just for my playstation, it isn't connected to an aerial or anything so I don't have to pay a tv licence. I watch Game of Thrones, The 100 (which is just cheesy as fuck) and The Blacklist the day after they come out online and right now I'm rewatching the Walking Dead from season 1 whenever I'm bored and have a few hours to kill.

I watched a lot more television when I was a kid than I do now. Most TV I watch is via my chromebook on sites like Project Free TV or streams for football matches.

Monday: Blacklist, Suits
Tuesday: no tv (sport-night)
Wednesday: whatever the fuck is on
Thursday: see wednesday
Friday: See tuesday
Saturday:See wednesday
Sunday: see Wednesday
I do however try to see series my wife hates when i get up and before i go to work. Those be: Supernatural and soon second series of Twin Peaks.
Also movies with violence and horor.
Good series are few nowadays in the Netherlands. Missed first few series of Breaking Bad, so i'll download it at one point.
Don't own a TV, due to my studio apartment being too small. I download Game of Thrones on Mondays, that's about it. None of the other stuff (Walking Dead, Archer, Rick and Morty) are running.

To be clear, when I said "TV schedule," I didn't mean you actually have to be sitting down and watching TV. I don't get most cable channels (AMC, FX) or pay-cable channels (Showtime, HBO).
I'd say about two thirds of the shows in the OP I download and watch on my computer, although I figured out to hook it up to my TV, so I guess the line is kinda blurry there. All the rest I DVR. But if I'm into a show I get a new episode the day it comes out, which is why I call it a schedule.

guys with such avatars shouldn't waste their time justifying :wub:
I don't have a TV but my neighbor has digital cable (digital!!!11) so TV time is a great time to test out my KGB spy gadgets.

I'm more of a movie guy. I haven't really watched many shows like crazy since Burn Notice went off the air.
