i havent seen very many movies lately. Most movies that are coming now are just over produced, crappy remakes, or just plain gut wrenchingly awful. At any rate some of my favorite movies are anything by hitchcock or kubrik, the big lebowski, fear and loathing in las vegas, baseball(ken burns doc aired on pbs),spinal tap major league, pi, clerks, resevoir dogs,bad taste and i have to admit napoleon dynamite was pretty damn funny but that movie is fresh on my mind because i just saw it..ohh and music docs..like i'm trying ot break your heart,fearless freaks(still haven't seen),dig..etc
simpsons, family guy, the daily show, the colbert report, those vh1 countdowns on random things,and i love the 80's/90's..(those shows are like crack), jeopardy, whatever's on espn,lots of sports,some re-runs on tv land, i do watch alot of vh1 classic and when i want to stay in the know i do watch a little c-span.and do my best to avoid fox news...ohh and dark shadows is hands down the best gothic 1960's soap opera..ever
read non fiction..mainly political books, and biographies..and the occasional magazine..also a fan of counter-culture books from ken keasy and hunter s thompson, kerouac, and ginsberg...i should read more but i dont....and i probably never will ..
