In PHP I can name my array indices so that I may have something like:
$shows = Array(0 => Array('id' => 1, 'name' => 'Sesame Street'), 1 => Array('id' => 2, 'name' => 'Dora The Explorer'));
Is this possible in Python?

This sounds like the PHP array using named indices is very similar to a python dict:
shows = [ {"id": 1, "name": "Sesaeme Street"}, {"id": 2, "name": "Dora The Explorer"}, ]
See http://docs.python.org/tutorial/datastructures.html#dictionaries for more on this.
