I once knew this girl who got sick whenever she watched the Simpsons because of the bright colours and yellows and what not. That's too bad.
The Daily Show with J. Stewart is pretty amazing. Before I got my current job (which requires that I get up early-ish every morning), I watched Stewart and Colbert every night. There was this really creepy interesting series a few years back called American Gothic that I liked too. Old twilight zone episodes are often pretty good.
