I was thinking about which night had the most shows that I watch and it turns out to be Thursdays. In the first hour of primetime there is Betty, Earl, The Office and Smallville. In the second hour of primetime there is 30 Rock, CSI, Grey’s Anatomy, The O.C. and Scrubs. While in the final hour of primetime there is Men in Trees and Shark. These shows all get watched either when they come on or are recorded for later viewing or are watched later on Comcast onDemand. Being able to watch the three CSI shows, NCIS, Numb3rs and Jericho on demand without having to record them first, has really helped out this TVaholic.
