I don't watch TV. I don't even own a TV. But I watch a lot of TV series...all of them online.

Here are a few of them:

Mr. Robot
Continuum
Under The Dome
Dominion
The Walking Dead
Fear The Walking Dead
The Strain

Celebrity Big Brother UK (my one guilty pleasure)

There are a lot of other shows I watch that aren't on right now.
 
Not as much recently, but Mr Robot was pretty crazy. Also started Gotham and Person of Interest.
 
I used to watch True Blood
 
Big Bang Theory
The Jim Gaffigan Show
The Late Shows once in awhile - depending on who's the guest
Mythbusters
DIY channels
How it's Made
Mr. Robot, though I'm a little bummed they're making it into a series (always the death knell for an otherwise good concept)
Local news in the mornings
The various history channels if something looks interesting
Same with the various science channels
Tune it to classical music when reading or we've guests over

But mostly movies.

...just way too many commercials on anymore to make TV that interesting. Almost more advertising than programming now.
Plus... most of the programming has been playing over and over and over and over and over and over again, I've already seen everything I like several times.
 
Nothing. I suppose I could say Steven Universe, or Teen Titans Go. My kids like those shows.
 
the information channels; science/history/mil/natgeo/ap/disc/etc. nothing else really, unless a big game is on.

An update to mention a couple more.

Gotham (new season just started)

The Bastard Executioner (watched the first episode of this new series...I think it's going to be a good one. Lots of actors that I've seen before...and I've always liked Katey Sagal)

watching shows like Walking Dead, the Strain and tBE "online" misses an amazing amount of their production value

is gotham good?

sure,
which specific source are you watching from?

Ummm...

I'm not inclined to reveal my source. Let's just say I don't get these shows from places like NetFlix or the like.

I like it.

It has a grittiness that's right in line with the movies. It deals with the rise of James Gordon and how he hooks up with Bruce Wayne. It also deals with the beginnings of various criminals that Batman eventually has to deal with.

I'm a big Risoli & Isles fan, Major Crimes, (loved The Closer before it ended), never miss NCIS, BlueBloods, Criminal Minds, Bones, Castle...Doc Martin and Foyles' War on PBS...

I'm actually not a heavy tv watcher, although there are shows I really enjoy and try to either watch or record. I was a huge Sopranos fan.

I like PBS, almost anything on PBS, especially news, all kinds of news, and their nature programming.

I also like ABC, NBC, and CBS national news and our local news.

For the entertainment and educational value, I like crime shows too.

Also NFL weekly games, and all other sports championship games.

Plus Navy vs Army football.

Everyone should stay current with the news, the weather, earthquakes and tsunami's, hurricanes, storms, floods, chem spills, rioting, crime etc -- anything that could affect you.

Everyone should be current on national and local issues as well, and know both sides of all the issues.

I like watching dramatized crime shows so that I can enhance my situational awareness at home and work and while in public.

Sports are entertaining and remind me to stay in shape and exercise.

Plus, as a famous Navy Admiral once pointed out: "The Russians are NOT our enemy -- they are our opponent. The Army is our enemy !!"

I used to know (in the Biblical sense) and date (in the California sense) a woman who loved to watch cooking shows and cook too.

I gained a lot of weight in that relationship and it was probably bad for my heart and arteries.

Since we broke up I have lost at least 10 lbs.
