Current "Can't Miss" shows?

The Lipstick Jungle thread got me thinking... what are your current "Can't miss" shows?

I'm only watching network TV on Thursday and Sunday now:

Thurs: Survivor, Grey's Anatomy, then early bed, nothing at 10
Sunday: Amazing Race, Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters

I watch parts of Dancing With the Stars, but wouldn't record it if I have to miss it.

Wednesdays is SciFi night: Ghost Hunters from 7-9 pm.

That's it for me, really. The other nights, I surf aimlessly, hoping for something to watch. On Monday, I sometimes resort to Antiques Roadshow.

I have "cant miss" shows that I usually miss! Damn me and my bad short term memory.

I try not to miss Ghost Whisperer on Friday nights (which is tonight, hopefully i'll remember in another 2 hours).

I have started to like Desperate Housewives, but I don't watch the current season. Instead I want the previous ones they show on Lifetime in the morning.

Then of course the "reality shows" like the Real Housewives as well as the trainwrecks on VH1.

For me 30 Rock is a can't miss but it comes on opposite Grey's so I have to make a choice which to watch now and which later. Extreme Home makes me cry every time...love it! And Lost is my absolute can't miss show...can't wait for it to return!

Wow, your TV watching habits are really similar to mine!

The only shows I DVR in case I miss them are The Amazine Race, Desperate Housewives and Mad Men on Sunday; Top Chef/Project Runway on Weds; Survivor, The Office and ER (because it's the last season) on Thursday.

I like Dancing with the Stars and LO:SVU but I don't record them. Like you, some nights I'll watch Antiques Roadshow!
