When it comes to TV shows, I'm extremely picky when it comes to watching something weekly and religiously. Unfortunately I do not have Showtime, HBO, Starz or AMC which means I do not watch four specific shows that I really like with great frequency (and I'm too lazy to watch it online on my laptop, so I wait for DVDs).
