Which shows actually deserve to be on five nights a week?
If budget, vacations, etc. were no object and the quality could be kept consistent, which TV shows would you actually watch five days a week?

The only ones I can think of at the moment are:

the Daily Show - Jon needs a full hour too so he doesn't have to keep cutting every other interview to shreds and then directing you to the website; also, he needs to be prevented from taking three week vacation by force if necessary

Mad Men - since things happen on this show about five times slower than any other program, watching it five times a week would make it feel like a regular drama

possibly Lost - but I suspect after two or three weeks at that rate of exposure you'd find me digging a bomb shelter in the backyard and raving about hieroglyphics

1. Lost will only be with us for another few months next year, then it's over.
Lot of stuff happening on that island.

2. Baseball
sounds good to me. :) It might seem the games are all the same, but they are not. Baseball is wonderfully subtle.......
