I LOVE music and am always up for hearing something new, especially live. I love Indie Rock and BritPop and REM will always be my alltime favorite. Here is the shortlist: Muse, Gomez, Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys, Citizen Cope, Ben Harper, Broken Social Scene, Feist, Blur, Wilco, Clapton, Sinatra, Miles, Sigur Ros....so many more.
Again, too many to list. Thanks to the amazing advent of Netflix, I am currently going through the AFI Top 100. The GodFather, Casablanca, Maltese Falcon, Office Space, The Princess Bride, Hi Fidelity, About a Boy, Mallrats, Labrynth, Few Good Men, When Harry Met Sally, Shawshank Redemption, Monty Python:Holy Grail, Kill Bill, Tombstone, Usual Suspects, History of the World Part I, Indiana Jones, to name a few.
Family Guy, Daily Show, Colbert Report, Letterman, Old episodes of Cheers, reruns of That 70's Show, and I have now become obsessed with a little show called Nip/Tuck. Other than that, I am usually not home enough to watch a ton of TV.
Mostly political and history books but I love Kerouac.
