Dexter, Californication, True Blood, Top Gear, Good Eats, 24 (it takes more suspension of belief than the Bible, but it's suspenseful and goofy fun), Rescue Me, Lost, Mythbusters, Supernatural, Dollhouse, World's Greenest Homes... I think that's it. I generally watch most of them on DVD/BR, though. You've not lived until you've done ~17 hours straight of a season of 24.
I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.

That;s how I watch my TV a lot of times too.  I refer to it as 'marathoning.'  As in: Hey Beth, what are you doing tonight?  Oh, I'm planning on marathoning Cowboy Beebop.

After that, if you've not yet, marathon Code Geass. It's a lot of fun.

That's about it.
I've lately been watching Netflix streaming video via PS3.  Just finished watching all the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes TV series this way.

Concur.

I did this with Season 1. I can remember it being about 2 in the morning and I was 3 episodes away from finishing. I was so hooked that I pulled an all-nighter the night before a big presentation at work. I remember thinking, "Ok, it's 2, I have to be up at 5, and each episode is 42 minutes long... that puts me about 4:15... ahh fuck it, I'll stay up all night.

Life is excellent. Any of the BBC Nature shows are so awesome the way they're filmed.

I watched Californication and really enjoyed the first season but Season 2 didn't do it for me, so I never watched 3. I liked how he was a total prick in Season 1, but it got too soap opera-y for me in 2.

I watch Tara with my wife, I enjoy it. She wants me to watch True Blood, but I can't do the vampire thing...

Family Guy (not amazed with it, I just happen to have a lot of it)
Big Bang Theory
30 Rock (slowly getting into it)

Pretty much everything I watch I follow on my PC. I don't have DSTV (or cable, or a satellite dish. Not sure what it's called in America).

Is a pie in the sky,
Chock full of lies,
A tool we devise
To make sinking stones fly."

SSY

Smallville, utterly addicted. When I first discovered it, I watched 4 seasons in about 5 days. The fact that every single episode is the same seems to do nothing to damp my enthusiasm for it. Something bad is going on, Clark investigates, gets his little buddy to perform ground breaking hacking jobs in less than 30 seconds to ascertain all the information he needs, Clark's super-speeds in to save the day, about to lay the beat down on whoever pissed in his strawberries, but somehow, a small piece of Kryponite is involved, sapping him of his super-strength, all looks lost, but it's OK, because somehow, at the last second, the Kryptonite gets safely contained, Clark enables god mode, and fucks up the person he came for.  

I am downloading the latest one now (Only 720p HDTV for me), but it is taking soooooooo looooooong.

There used to be a show that started last summer called "The Unusuals" on a Fox affiliate that I got into and then it kept getting pre-empted then I lost track of it after I started working nights during the week.
