ESPN's college football, "Antiques Roadshow" on PBS and "Today with Kathy Lee & Hoda" on NBC top the list of favorite TV shows among political conservatives. TV viewers defined by market research group Experian Simmons as "mild Republicans" are partial to the sitcom "Rules of Engagement" on CBS, "Sons of Guns" on Discovery, and "Sons of Anarchy" on FX. "Mild Republicans" were described as "somewhat conservative." But Comedy Central's late night duo of "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and "The Colbert Report" with Stephen Colbert are wildly popular among those defined by Experian Simmons as "Super Democrats." This group is described as "somewhat" to "very liberal." The report, "Top TV Programs among Voter Segments," was released this week. Experian Simmons arrived at its findings after polling about 25,000 adults picked at random for its annual survey.
