I NEVER tape in HD - takes up WAAAY too much space. I have a FIOS DVR and it has a gigantic storage capacity for SD recording. I probably have 25 movies and dozens of hours of shows recorded, and am only just above 50%, and that is because my husband insists on taping HIS stuff in HD. It seriously takes 4X the space.
I'm sort of a slave to HD as well. Does anyone upgrade their FIOS box for more storage? Or do you get what you get? (I have the same question about my FIOS router that is 5+ years old but I should start a new thread for that).

OP, I think you would like Royal Pains and Hart of Dixie.

It's really great to see so many other TV-holics in my company. 
Thank you. You make me feel more normal.

I just set up the DVR to record whatever is on whenever and instead of watching live tv, I always have something ready to watch when I need it.
I watch these and add: Suits, White Collar, The Mindy Project, and.... Workaholics
I also watch Downton, and a bunch of bad BBC reality TV...

Another vote for Elementary. Wanted to dislike it but ended up loving it and I am neither a Sherlock Holmes or Lucy Liu fan. If you like fantasy and adventure, Game of Thrones is wonderful. Southland is a great cop show.

I blame USA, FX and ABCFamily for moving to year round programming and totally messing with my viewing schedule. SUMMER NETWORKS, DAMMIT!

I guess I'm addicted to HD. It just looks so much better to me. That said, my FIOS DVR with about 13 hours on it is 70% full. So frustrating.
By the way, the new season of the Big C is subtitled "hereafter." Not a good sign perhaps. I love Laura Linney.
Anyone know when Nurse Jackie is returning? I usually only sign up for Showtime during the summer when the shows I usually watch aren't on.

yes, The Big C is returning. Though they're going to shorten the season by making the episodes an hour vs 30 minutes. 4th and final season starting up Monday, April 29th according to wiki.
