I've been watching House since it started. Now i download each episode of the new season a day after it airs. 7 years and it's still awesome.
As for Fringe, yeah, it's confusing if one doesn't watch it from the very beginning. J.J. Abrams, who also co created Lost, said it would have a much easier to follow plot than Lost though.
And i hated Lost for some reason, without even watching it.

Lost just seemed pointless to me...I watched maybe half an episode. Then I lost interest for good. I am glad to see that Fringe isnt following in Lost's footsteps...

And House is just awesome. I love hugh laurie but this show just works so well for him. There is no arguing about that show.

A lot of my favourite shows have ended now.. ER, Lost, Prison Break, The Shield, Without a Trace..

The ones left are: Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, The Vampire Diaries, Cougar Town and........ Glee (please don't hate me! LoL)

Hey now Glee is entertaining.

If you like lost, have you heard of Fringe then?? Created byJ.J. Abrams too and good. Better than lost in my opinion

Finished stuff:
The Office [uk version: US version can go to hell.]
Extras
Fawlty Towers [being from Torquay, this is a requirement]
need to see more of it, but Frasier

Current stuff:
House, even if the episode structure is a bit repetitive :P
American Dad [much better characters than Family Guy, I feel. Also, less reference-gags = win]
QI
Have I Got News For You
Never Mind the Buzz****s....virtually every panel show.
PEEP SHOW. outstanding. other such mitchell and webb outlets.

probably more...

I watched half of the first season of Fringe, but I really didn't like it. The main character's acting was a huge issue for me. I find her really wooden.

I have to say... I really enjoyed watching the original Whose Line Is It Anyway? Some of the funniest improv happened on that show...

Lie To Me, The Mentalist, CSI, CSI Miami, How I Met Your Mother

'Nuff said, i think they're all amazing (:

Not much of a TV guy aside from ESPN, and sometimes those crappy VH1 and MTV reality shows late at night.

Only show I watch on a regular basis is the US version of The Office. Just perfect casting and writing for the show. Nobody but Steve Carell can play that role. I don't even like Steve Carell in really anything else, but damn he is great in The Office. Aside from him, I just think all the characters are great in their own way. I hate the UK version, but then again I just hate British humor in general.

I'll watch It's Always Sunny sometimes too, and Tosh.0 occasionally on Comedy Central.

I like Doctor Who, and the spin-offs are OK as well. I liked some of the old BBC comedies, like The Royle Family, Fawlty Towers and Red Dwarf. I enjoyed the first Fullmetal Alchemist, but I haven't seen the new version. Other than that I seldom watch TV.
