    I assume we're talking current running shows? If yes, then:

    - The Walking Dead
    Virtually puts me on the edge of my couch. Not just the graphics, but the story line. I've never read the comics, but I dig the show 100%.

    - House of Cards
    I have a hard time keeping up with the pace, mostly because I know diddly squad about US politics, but nevertheless I find it very exiting! Just finished with season 2 today. I just love watching Kevin Spacey. He's a great actor.

    - Arrow
    Started slow but quickly progressed into a must-watch show for me.

    Big Bang Theory and Modern Family for comedies.

    Gold Rush
    Bering Sea Gold
    Pawn Stars
    Dance Moms

    I love Game of Thrones but it isn't back until April, I would rate that as my top. The other's listed are my junk food, you know it isn't good for you but you watch it anyway. Gold Rush is a snapshot of generally unprofessional gold miners, who just don't seem to really have a game plan. Bering Sea Gold is pretty much the same only they are on the water. Pawn stars is Pawn stars. I know I will get some flak for Dance Moms, but I watch it and think "Wow, there are people out there like that who walk among me", and "I wonder how many of those kids are going to need loads of therapy because of their mothers". Oh, I watch Steven Seagal Lawman, it is absolutely ridiculous how they edit the show.

    The only "Reality Shows" that I watch are The Amazing Race and Survivor. I've been watching those shows since they debuted and I'm a rabid fan and wouldn't miss them.

    I forgot to mention one more long time staple for me and that's Grey's Anatomy, and it's another show that I've watched since day one.

    Love those shows.
    Gold Rush: It never ceases to amaze me how incompetent Todd is :)
    Bearing Sea: Steve Ridell is...just...weird lol
    Pawn Stars: I'd go to Vegas just to meet ChumLee
    Dance Moms: Never heard of...

    Since I read this, I've come up with some pretty good titles for new shows. Too bad I can't post most of them. Ha!

    yes! Honestly I know nothing of gold mining beyond those shows, and I bet anything I could do better than Todd or Steve Ridell in their endeavors.
    Pawn Stars is starting to bug me. So much of the bits seemed staged (just to create some type of drama, etc)
    Dance Moms is on TLC and it is just a trainwreck all around....probably why I can't stop watching it. The kids themselves are boring, but the moms and the dance instructors are insane

    I know what you mean about Pawn Stars. It's the same with all those Storage Auction shows - it's all getting to be scripted and as that happen I lose interest.
    Pawn Stars is now, to me, a written comedy show and I don't even think about it as a reality show.

    Yup, pretty much given up on Pawn Stars.
    Shame, because my wife and I really liked it - we're antique buffs and really enjoyed the history behind the items brought in.
