Sports, religious, music channels (because they don't have any WORLD music channels), sitcoms, reality, dramas, soap operas, talk shows and most everything else EXCEPT educational. The only time I'd watch would be at my neighbor's apt. if there was something interesting going on in the world, and we'd watch a few minutes of news. I don't like much of anything on TV. I do like certain educational programs and sometimes watch these over at my friend's. Once in a great while I'll watch a mystery with him. Now, though, I can pick and choose what I want to watch, and without commercials -- I finally got Netflix and am finding sufficient and various stuff there. I used to just LOVE one TV show, back in 1990 or so, called "Memories of Portugal." It was a local program based in Northern Cal and was an hour long, all in Portuguese, with news from Portugal, AND various traditional folkdances locally and traditional fado and folk videos. That, to me, was pure heaven. But it no longer exists.

Sports religious and news.

I have to clarify the news thing, though. I loathe my local news. Absolutely loathe it. However, I enjoy fox news, c span, cnn, etc.

Sports or Reality and talk shows I could care less, but I do love my Soap Operas and love a good classic movie
on Turner Classics or a crime fighting show like Law & Order or a Western

I don't like sports, soaps, religious, reality, drama, or talk shows. I hardly ever watch TV. I don't like most sit coms, but some are ok. News is ok, but I'd rather read it than watch it. Music channels are good, but only if the music is good. *wink* Educational shows are cool.

"Reality" TV and the evangelical Christian TV networks are the worst. Also wrestling.

Sports
Religious
News
Music channels
Sitcoms
Reality
Educational (history, geography, etc.)
Dramas
Soap Operas
Talk shows

This is why I don't watch TV. Well, educational programs aren't so bad, but I'm very picky. I downloaded Jonathan Miller's The History of Atheism the other week and that was pretty good.

It would be easier to say what shows I do like the list would be shorter

I'm not keen on watching sports and musical channels are boring. I don't like soaps or talk shows either.

I'll watch programming under any of the other categories, but I prefer decent quality shows.

I can't stand sports at all and since religion isn't really my thing, it's not my show either. I don't really like house renovations and other things that happen to people I don't know. I like anything funny, And of course I must watch Dr Phil. Psychologically speaking I can kick his ass but I still like his show.

I definitely do no like religious, most sports, nightly news, music, most sitcoms, soap operas, talk shows.
I like news magazines but not the nightly news, only a couple sitcoms. Most shows I watch are reality or educational. Some dramas I guess- Medium, House, Law and Order, Dexter. I HATE shows like ER

I don't like overly sexual or violent shows. I don't watch soap operas, music channels, sports.

I enjoy romantic comedies, mystery, some drama, some sitcoms, forensics, some detective shows..

Reality. I have no patience for these. My Mary likes to watch some of them, I have to leave the room.
Soap Operas (daytime). I used to watch a few of these years ago.
Probably Drama would be on the list...I take it that is like something on the Lifetime channel. Blah...ocky

Sports, religious, music channels, reality, soap operas, and talk shows (unless you count The Daily Show and The Colbert Report). I especially hate reality shows.

The so-called reality shows are far too plentiful and bore me. The contestants seem too self-centered and emotionally melodramatic.
