CBS for sitcoms-2 1/2 men, BBT, CSI, How I met your mother, the Mentalist
CBS for the best 4 days of the year come March with its College Hoops, IMO ABC has the slight edge with the College football coverage. And would also say that CBS' coverage of the baseball playoffs back in the early 90's blows what Fox puts out there out of the water. NBC had a good thing going after CBS but fox ruined it along with damn near ruining the coverage for the BCS games.

I tend to lean toward NBC shows ... The Office, Community, Parks and Rec, and Law and Order (plus L&O: SVU). Dislike Jay Leno, like Conan. All the reality crap I couldn't care less about.
As far as sports are concerned, NBC blows though. Outside of the NHL, the Olympics, and Sunday Night Football I don't care.

I watch all of them at different points but I am not loyal to any of them. Growing up I was very loyal to ABC but that stopped in college

I like ABC for College Football and CBS for SEC Saturdays and for March Madness. NBC doesn't do a whole lot for me except the U.S. Open every now and then and the Kentucky Derby when they used to have it

Every morning I tune into Toledo Eleven News. It seems like they're sort of like extra relatives in the room. Plus, I am fairly well acquainted with one of the TV 11 personalities. I also watch Fox quite often because of the numerous sports broadcasts that they do throughout the week.

CBS - NFL, NCAA Basketball, Golf. It just has the best sports overall.
For the shows, I have favorites on them all.
FOX has 24
NBC has Community
ABC has Lost
CBS has CSI and the comedies.

FOX - Glee, NFL, World Series
ABC - College Football, NBA Finals
CBS - Survivor, CSI, Big Bang Theory, College Football, March Madness, NFL
NBC - Chuck, Heroes, Community, The Office, 30 Rock
These are all the shows on these networks. I don't really count the sports these networks cover, because I'd watch them no matter what network they were on and just because I watch the sports on their network doesn't necessarily mean that I like their coverage of that sport. So, based solely on the actual shows that I watch I would rank the networks NBC, CBS, FOX, ABC.
