Right now, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. But, that's on break between season, so I don't know if it still counts.

A little while ago, I would have said my favorite was Fringe. However, that has become a little bit disappointing in recent times, so MLP got bumped up. However, if we're not counting MLP because we're now in between seasons, then Fringe is the winner here.

In roughly the correct order of how much I like them: Legend of Korra, Leverage, Eureka, Warehouse 13, Young Justice, Supernatural, How I Met Your Mother, and Alphas.

Runners up: Falling Skies, The Walking Dead, and Game of Thrones. The latter only because I don't have HBO or whatever channel it's on but have seen some of the episodes since it came to dvd (and they were awesome).

Weird, I have a lot of shows I like on now but I keep thinking tv has been going down the crapper for years. Damn nostalgia.

As I'm currently not the proud owner of a TV I rely on streaming, so basically I spend all day in a televisual nostalgia trip. Classic British sitcoms are my drug of choice.

However, since we're talking about shows on the air, my favs are:

Parks and Recreation - I love the relationship between the leads, it seems so natural and doesn't need constant conflict in order to make it interesting and sweet.

Once upon a time - DON'T JUDGE ME! I only like it because it features Raphael Sbarge = Carth Onasi = awesomeness

Sons of Anarchy is the best show currently on TV. And I will argue over the internet with you if you disagree (Not really, I'll probably go to sleep).

Game of Thrones and the Walking Dead are very good runners up.

Don't really know much comedy shows currently on the air, but the select episodes of community I've seen are very good. Hard to compare pure comedy to drama of any kind.

Oh it's My Little Pony.
As for non-pony shows: I like How I Met Your Mother, Mike & Molly, Big Bang Theory, Top Gear, Castle, Amazing Race, Modern Family, and NCIS. I'll watch a Mythbusters marathon too, and I with NatGeo uld do more eps of Brain Games.
If being shown in intermittent reruns counts, then Firefly is absolutely on my favorites list.

Anyone else see LA Complex? I watched it because Jewel Staite is in it, but I can't decide if it's something I want to stay with.

I enjoy watching Supernatural. It's one of the few series that I have enjoyed for a long time and continues to be on the air. There is always a good mix of action, comedy, horror, mystery, and charm that seems to be lacking in other heavily sexed or dully told shows.

Game of Thrones, Castle, Legend of Korra, Young Justice, Boardwalk Empire, and My Little Pony.

Fringe and Big Bang Theory would have been on that list, but I haven't kept up with Fringe and Big Bang Theory has disappointed me lately.

Mine would have to be Castle, or The Walking Dead.

I mean come on, Nathan Fillion.

EDIT: Also the Legend of Korra. I've been needing my Avatar fix

Good to see some love for Community here. That show deserves way higher ratings.

6 seasons and a movie!
Hazaar for Community, that show is awesome!

6 seasons and a movie!

Other then that, How I Met Your Mother and The Big Bang Theory.

I've been planning to get into Game of Thrones and The Waking Dead though.

I only watch a couple of television shows and the odd horror film nowadays. But my fave TV show right now is... *Ducks for cover to avoid being pelted with cabbages*

... Holby City.

It's trashy but I like it. (Much like the sadly cancelled Hotel Babylon.)

Game of Thrones

Walking dead

2 Broke girls

Big bang theory

These are the shows that tend to peak my interest the most. There are a few more, but mostly these ones are the most attention grabbing for me.

Game of Thrones, as of right now(I even got my Mom hooked on it).

Closely followed by Korra.

Closely followed by The Killing, which is way better than it has any business being.

And then Justified, despite the last season kinda sucking

There are so many running gags and 'blink and you'll miss the gag' shots, it's a much smarter show than anyone thinks it is.
This is very true. You can watch episodes multiple times and still find new jokes.

You have to admit that Robert Quarles was fairly entertaining in an inept villain kind of way. I still have yet to find out what a Hollar is.
I think he was pretty much the one redeeming thing about that series. Plus, his downfall... what a way to go out.

Seeing as Joss has gone to the movies for now, I'm saying How I Met Your Mother. It's absolutely hilarious, and after 7 seasons I've really started to like the characters - and one of the episodes this season had probably the saddest moment I've seen on television. Ever.
I still can't figure out how they're managing to make 20 minutes of comedy with 3 minutes of drama at the end SO effective. I think there's something in the way they structure the comedic bits that makes them gel well with the drama... but damned if I can spot it.
