Walt Says:

All 3 CSI’s and 2 Law & Order’s

itgirl25 Says:

Fringe, Sanctuary, Heroes.

True Blood was up there until last week.

Diana Says:

True Blood
Heroes
Pushing Daisies

But I did manage to make a dent in all three of those over the weekend, and am only down to 3 episodes a piece to go through.

Josh Emerson Says:

-Gossip Girl (sometimes I think “oh that sounds like a good episode” and DVR but I never end up watching)
-Private Practice

I used to DVR Prison Break and then not watch it, but then I realized there was must be a reason why I never end up watching it.

jess Says:

True Bloods season is almost over you should check it out.

For me the 5 would be:

Sanctuary (although i just officially gave up on it and took it off rotation)
Life On Mars
Private Practice
General Hospital (does daytime count)
Greek

tlcinvt Says:

OMG How can you not watch True Blood as soon as it airs? I am so hooked.

Top Five Shows that pile up on our DVR:

1. The Mentalist
2. Eleventh Hour
3. Fringe (I’m sorry, I want to love this… I really do!)
4. Life on Mars
5. Pushing Daisies (My husband won’t watch this one, and I have little time to watch shows on my own.)

As a side note, it is very likely we will finish all of the episodes we have recorded. It is always nice to have new episodes to watch during the Holidays and over the summer.

Shows that we set to record this year, but never even watched before deleting the timer:
1. My Own Worst Enemy
2. Crusoe

Paul Says:

The last season of The Shield is piling up on my DVR. I’m at the point where I’m going to wait for all of them and have a weekend marathon to say goodbye.

r dubs Says:

Priviledged
Sarah Conner Chronicles
Fringe
True Blood
Pushing Daisies

to be fair, I do get around to most of them..eventually…Priviledged I’ll watch when I have nothing else and need some bubble gum, Sarah Connor if I’m at the dvr in the kitchen or really bored, and Fringe & True Blood come when I’m mentally prepared to be scared and/or disturbed.

Heather Says:

My Own Worst Enemy
Sanctuary
Stargate: Atlantis
Eleventh Hour
CSI (Take Your Pick, I catch up when I do chores)

Vance Says:

My Own Worst Enemy
House
90210
Fringe (I love it when I watch it too but I never feel like putting it on)
Supernatural (same as above, it might be the ick factor)

I would have added Private Practice and Dirty Sexy Money but I’m actually finally catching up on it today.

Meanwhile, I deleted all of Heroes cause I’m just totally giving up on it.

xoxoT Says:

I really only have 2 that I consistantly don’t watch:

Ugly Betty
Dirty Sexy Money

Jenny Says:

The only thing that ever piles up on us is Stargate Atlantis. Everything else is watched before the next ep or right after a 2nd ep airs (cause we like to have a marathon lol)

AHA Says:

These are more like shows I might get back to if I have the time

1. Ugly Betty
2. My Own Worst Enemy
3. Supernatural
4. Eleventh Hour
5. Mad Men (though I think I’m too much of a feminist to stand this, I quit after 4 episodes initially)

Yet another West Wing marathon is more likely though..

Andy Says:

II just did a clean up but it has been:

1. Heroes (Really feels like a chore)
2. Jon and Kate Plus Eight
3. Private Practice
4. Dirty Sexy Money (I loved the first season but haven’t watched a single episode they all just sit there…maybe today…maybe)

Amazing Race usually sits there for about a week but not as long as any of those shows above

jeck Says:

1) FRINGE (just haven’t gotten around to watching but I do plan to)
2) HEROES (I just canceled by season pass)
3) Private Practice (I should just cancel this, too)

kilmoonie Says:

I kind of want to see a tally in the end.

Mine (ours, counting my girlfriend):

HEROES
THE OFFICE
HOUSE (she eventually watches this though, but they build up)
PUSHING DAISIES
LIFE ON MARS

And we stopped recording TRUE BLOOD, even though that was one at one point. Once we finally watched it and didn’t like it, we canceled it.

JR

John Says:

Heroes is the only show accumulating on my DVR right now.

I want to want to watch it, but I have lost the willingness to sit through more disappointing and uninteresting episodes.

I am working up the nerve to delete the shows and drop it from my season pass.

Josh Emerson Says:

After the past few weeks, I need to add Brothers & Sisters to my list. I put the show “on notice” since I haven’t particularly enjoyed it this season, and I haven’t bothered to watch the past two episodes. I just can’t get into them.

I’m really not enjoying the Ryan storyline, the Saul is gay storyline, the Justin/Rebecca romance….I can’t think of any I am enjoying.

Kelleh Says:

My Own Worst Enemy
and, to a lesser extent,
Ugly Betty

cam3150 Says:

-Smallville ( I LOVE this but am 4 eps behind right now)
-Heroes (3 behind)
-Desperate Housewives (just watched 5 in a row this weekend)
-Gossip Girl (am normally caught up but am currently 3 behind)
-Prison Break (I still love this one but have 2 to watch)
-Lipstick Jungle (2 behind — I’m so worried that it’s going to get canceled!!)
-Chuck (thanks to a DVR mishap, I’m 3 behind, normally watch live)
-The Mentalist (watched all 5 two weeks ago, now behind just one — LOVE IT)
-My Own Worst Enemy (haven’t watch any yet but I want to; waiting to see if it gets canceled).
-Pushing Daisies (2 behind)
-90210 (2 behind)

I do get around to watching everything eventually as I love them all. My DVR is at 80% capacity right now. That includes all of the above, plus too many Jon and Kate + 8’s to count, the election night speeches that I’ve yet to watch, and the Alabama vs LSU game from the weekend that I still haven’t watched (Roll Tide!!)

Shows that I recorded for a while before giving up entirely:

-House (LOVED it but ended up with around 12 to watch and it was just too overwhelming so just deleted them with promises to watch the DVD’s one day)
-Fringe ( I wanted to love it but it was too complicated and I can only take one of those — Lost!!)
-Numbers (watched for years, then just gave up)

Shows I watch live or the same night it airs:

-The Office
-Grey’s
-Dirty Sexy Money
-Privileged
-Private Practice
-Project Runway
-Idol
-Lost

jess Says:

Shows I watch live are few and far between. Busy girl here and i must confess DVR has spoiled me rotten. But I tell what i watch right away usually the same night. Heroes, Bones, Fringe, Grey’s Anatomy, Smallville, True BLood, and Desperate Housewives. Do I watch to much TV? Every thinng else I’m usually a day or two behind like Terminator, Prison Break, Gossip Girl, Ugly Betty, Army Wives, Valentine (pure fluff but i like), Supernatural ( which is totally rocking this season I love DEAN!), Stargate Atlantis, the seeker (shades of nostalgia for Xena & Hercules). And again I ask do i watch too much TV?

jack Says:

-big bang theory
-new adventures of old christine
-little britain USA
(sometimes watch them when i can….)
-greys anatomy
-prison break

blueberry Says:

The facts are these:

Pushing Daisies is the only show worth watching not named Lost. Yet, it is destined for cancellation.

Kate Says:

True Blood – I want to like it, but if I’m honest with myself I don’t
Lipstick Jungle – Will watch if really bored
Brothers & Sisters- I love this show, but somehow I’m always getting behind

Nelly Says:

1.House

I have the 3 first episodes of S5 and I’ve seen only the 1st one, can’t make myself watch the rest or loose my time recording/saving the new ones >.< I just don’t bother anymore.

Mel Says:

Pushing Daisies — don’t know why I bothered, haven’t watch one episode
Sarah Connors — I was caught up, Now I’m back 2 or 3
Fringe – canceled and deleted already
True Blood — I’ve been watching, but I’m with you, Kate — if I’m honest with myself, I just don’t like it much.
