1. I only have basic cable, so not many choices |
|
but thanks to Netflix I've been watching the Showtime series 'The Tudors'.
I love that period of English history and was prepared to be po_d; even turn it off if I found too many historical inaccuracies. Much to my surprise, it was done very well (overall).
It's kind of soap opera-ish and probably not appealing to many folks, but so far I'm happy w/it. I've just finished season 2. :-)

When those shows are on, I will tune into them every week without fail. Guaranteed. Don't call me on Monday nights because I won't be answering the phone.
I'm also a big Spongebob Squarepants fan. LOVE that cartoon!

Long since off the air, one wonderful DUer described it as "craptastic", and I heartily agree. It's truly awful, and is exactly why the television was created. Television, you can retire, you have reached your pinnacle.

I like Wonder Pets.
In fact, a few weeks ago, after my toddler went to bed, I turned on the TV and the Wonder Pets happened to be on, and I actually sat down and watched the entire episode.
I didn't even realize what I was doing until it was over.

I am 30 something yr old with no kids so no reason to watch but that Selena Gomez is so sassy. I wish I had been that cool as kid - I also watched Sabrina the Teenage Witch (that Salem was a hilarious kitty).
I love Project Runway, Idol, Celebrity Rehab, and Work of Art
I am a sad reality show junkie (but none of that bachelor/ette, real housewives, etc crap)
the good news - so is my spouse - we watch together and make catty comments throughout

19. Real Housewives of Atlanta. HGTV's Property Virgins. And my most embarrassing ever: |
|
Back in the '90s, I actually watched a bad, bad series called Pensacola: Wings of Gold. I'm not proud of it, I mostly watched it because it was sometimes on at 4 a.m., and I, a lazy college student, was up at that time.

46. Years ago I saw an episode that should be considered a classic. |
|
It was a domestic disturbance call & when the police got to the scene, a rather large woman was in the front yard, holding down her husband whom she hog-tied with a coiled telephone cord. He was very drunk & she was giving him what-for; he was so angry, but harmless since he was tied up well & was much smaller than his wife. The police were impressed (& amused) at how well she had tied him up. If I remember correctly, she wanted to stop him from driving her car.

but, that show is pretty intelligently written, so I would not consider it an "embarassing" like.
I sometimes watch 'Nikita' which is the remake of "La Femme Nakita" on after Vampire Diaries. The two female leads (Maggie Q and Lyndsy Fonseca) are rather attractive.

when Doofenshmertz was in his lab and you hear a "tap tap tap"
and he comes out with, "If it's that confounded raven tap, tap, tapping at my chamber door..." or something like that.
(of course, it was Perry the Platypus...)
But, how many kids cartoons can get in a reference to "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe?
