C'mon everybody's got one. You're watching TV at 3:00 am.. and you can't bring yourself to click the off button on your remote no matter HOW hard you try.
I have two channels like that.. FUSE, which is a Canadian channel that I get for some reason.. it broadcasts music videos basically all day long.. and none of the bs you get on MTV.. I particularly enjoy watching Uranium, which shows all old metal videos.. old Metallica, Pantera.. videos that you would never expect to see on tv now. Then there's comedy central.. I cannot turn that channel off. So many good shows.. South Park, Chappelle's Show, Crank Yankers, Trigger Happy TV.. and then they have standup and they show movies like "Half Baked" and "Dogma". It's soo good.. :]~
So what are your channels?

think you can tone-down the size of those lips? :p Anyway, I'd have to say the Weather Channel... once I get it on, I just can't bring myself to turn it off. it's so good. But in all reality, TLC is good... but I rarely watch TV anymore. no time or interest, really.

Yeah dude...id definitely have to say FUSE and Comedy Central...Uranium is basically the old headbangers ball and Rockzilla plays much better crap than is usually on...My favorite commercial is the spoof of Nick and Jessica where shes making "fruit roll ups" with a banana and a strawberry ...I love Comedy Central because of the new season of south park, and its the only station that absolutely loves to play Airplane! But I need to add The History Channel to that list...i mean really...how can anybody say that this stuff ISNT amusing!

As far as movie channels, I get this station called Action! or something like that...It plays anime now and then (Akira, Metropolis, X to name a few) but it plays basically just badass movies...im watching Big Trouble In Little China right now hehee

comedy central is the only channel i always go back to, it's one of the few rare stations that have shows that don't suck.

Back when I had cable I'd always watch or flip between VH1, MTV, MTV2 or BET. I did have FUSE for a bit until we got the basic satelite package. I miss my music videos . I would watch them online but my internet's crappy. MTV's commercials are looooong. I timed it once and they were about 7 minutes. All that extra chit chat too. You don't need that when you're just watchin' for the music.

Why do you feel that way with the weather channel? Isn't the weather mostly the same all day or does the weather change a lot?

Once I saw this thread's title, I automatically thought of Comedy Central. It ALWAYS has good shows on, EXCEPT Mad TV.

I've been known to watch The Shopping Channel for a few minutes at night if nothing's on. Not for long stretches but... I don't get it.

Sometimes I'll find a good movie/documentary on at 1 AM and watch that for a bit too.

Snowtomato, I would like to tell you that your layout rocks and that Rocky Horror is one of the best movies ever conceived.

Back on topic... I usually stay up to watch family guy and robin on adult swim... The only time I stayed up to watch tv later was when Spike TV had an all day marathon of MOST EXTREME ELEMINATION CHALLENGE!

I keep it on comedy central unless something really shitty is on, then i'll switch to food network. I rarely sit down and actually watch whatever is on, so it's all good.
