What's your favorite Basic Cable channel?

[Judge Smails]

<p>For me, it would have to be a toss-up between The History Channel and The Discovery Channel.&nbsp; I know that no matter what time of the day I turn on the t.v., if there's nothing else on, I'll be able to find something interesting on one of those channels.&nbsp; Oftentimes, I find myself having to choose between the two because they both have something interesting on at the same time.</p><p>On Discovery I'll watch any episode of Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, American Chopper, Deadliest Catch and any number of specials. Practically anything on The History Channel is worthwhile. But then I'm a history buff, so&nbsp;I can see how some might be turned off by it. There's that old joke that it's really the Nazi/WWII Channel, but its been different lately.&nbsp; Take a look at Modern Marvels or History's Mysteries among many many others.</p><p>So what's your favorite channel that you find your clicker finger gravitating towards?&nbsp; And the first wiseguy that says Lifetime gets a throat-punch from me.&nbsp; Lifetime = occular cancer and is blocked on my cable box.</p>

I watch the History Channel the most, but the one that has the shows that I most look forward to, is FX.

[WhistlePig]

FX all the way! The Shield, Nip/Tuck and Rescue Me are my favorite shows.
Next up would have to be Discovery Health with all the hideous medical
affiction shows.

[Gvac]

<p>Court TV.&nbsp; </p><p>I'm cuckoo for &quot;Forensic Files.&quot;&nbsp;</p>

[torker]

<p>Discovery Channel to learn; VH1 to forget.</p>

[WhistlePig]

Ohh..how could I forget CourtTV? I love that one, too!
