Jaz: Do anything interesting this weekend?

I respond by saying:

No realmente. La noche del lunes yo mire veinticuatro. Adoro esa exposicion. Yo generalmente lo tengo que grabar. Esta acerca de un grapo de personas que previenen los atentados terroristas en america. Que clase de peliculas quiere usted?

What corrections would I make to this response.

You have some big errors there... took me a while to figure out what you were trying to say... you could say.
No mucho. La noche del lunes vi el programa "24". Me encanta ese programa de televison. Normalmente tengo que grabarlo. Se trata de unas persons que tienen el trabajo de prevenir ataques teroristas en Los Estados Unidos. Que clase de programas tu ves?

Here's another way of saying it:

No realmente. El lunes por la noche vi el programa "24". Me encanta ese prgrama de television. Generalmente tengo que grabarlo (In Spanish the verb forms often make subject pronouns unnecessary, in this case, "yo" and when that's the case the pronouns shouldn't be used unless there's a reason to). Es acerca de un grupo de personas encargadas de prevenir ataques terroristas en Los Estados Unidos. ¿Qué tipo de programas ves tu?

Something I just can't get is why Jaz is asking about the weekend and he comments on Monday. Anyway,

Realmente no. El lunes por la noche vi "24". Casi siempre tengo que grabarlo. Es acerca de un grupo de personas que se encargan de prevenir atentados terroristas en los Estados Unidos. ¿Qué tipo de programas te gustan a ti? o ¿qué tipo de programas le gustan a Ud.?

depending on how formal the conversation is... you can use or usted
