Seinfeld and Pawn Stars for TV (excluding Cleveland Sports)
Movies cant really think of any. Big Lebowski I guess?

Very rare that music comes on TV for me.

It says hear or see, so I'd assume the radio was included.

TV/movies/etc. - nothing. There are some I really like, but I can't think of a single time where I told someone I couldn't come over because I was watching something great and wanted to finish it. Used to be like that with the Simpsons, but I got tired of that show eventually and nothing else has gotten my attention to where I watch it regularly; let alone revolve my life around it.

Music - Online, I use last.fm when I exercise at night. I've pretty much gotten my station to include something like 1000+ heavy metal groups of various kinds. There are times when I'll keep the music on longer than expected due to a song by a group I like coming on, which is about the only time I'll do this. But I don't know if I can really name a bunch of groups...more of a "whoa yeah I like this song; not turning SHIT off yet!" sort of thing. In my car, I just use CDs, so I can come back to any song there the next time I get in the car.

Songs.....anything I like I haven't heard in a while.

Artist....there aren't any artist that haven't put out something I don't want to hear.

Movies....Few Good Men, Die Hard 1 or 2, Lethal Weapon 1, 3, 4....Rocky 4,...probably a few others but I rarely turn to a channel that might have a movie.

Shows....Friends and BBT
