So what kind of TV shows is everyone into? Maybe we cans tart some discussion threads on them, just for the heck of it. The shows I'm pretty die-hard for are General Hospital and ER. Newer stuff I was into were The OC (on hiatis), Everwood (also on hiatus), and Wonderfalls (got cancelled ). I had this weird addiction to Survivor Allstars. Since pretty much everything good is in re-runs right now, and I don't have cable, I've gotten into this PBS series called Colonial House. Wow...and we worry about our appearance, these people are crazy! The premise is they live in this little colony in Maine for a number of weeks pretending it's 1628 and have to live in these teeny tiny one room houses with the whole family and servants while the governor gets to give out scarlet letters for bad behavior and make people sit tied to a pole, but the worst is these people have to do tons of dirty work non-stop. I've definitely felt weird/guilty about all the crazy wastes and technologies I live with sometimes, but these people have shown me exactly why it's good to live in 2004. I mean crap, they had no internet! Little rant, there. Anyways, discuss!

Loved Friends.....been watching it the last ten years.....so sad to see that it is all over. Hopefully the Joey show will be decent and make it for more than one season! The one show that I just started watching a few weeks ago was Las Vegas.....the season finale was Monday. What a bummer, I just discovered it! Hopefully there will be some reruns in the summer so that I can catch up. I watch American Idol but I usually do other things while it is on so I miss the majority of it but see enough of it to know who is kicked off each week. The voting system I guess has a lot to be desired, I never vote but it is usually a big controversy every week! I have watched all of The Bachelor series......including the current one. I'm glad he got rid of Trish! My son loves Fear Factor so I do watch that with him.....he is almost four, nothing seems to gross him out! And last I love Trading Spaces!

there are so many i can't een tell ya. sucks to be a tv junkie, but i grew up without cable, and now that I have it, its opened a new world! denice=dork.
oh, so i was gonna pick (yes, i know, not supposed to be talking about that here...but bear with me), but instead i decided to talk about tv. seems logical.
Now that friends is gone, i have NO idea what my new comedy will be. my new obsessions are sex and the city (just got hbo on demand....super, enhance the obsession) and the OC. but i love survivor and the amazing race, (which in my opinion blows survivor out of the water..super show, intense every week), and trading spaces! i used to love ER, but have just not had time this season. an episode actually "talked" me into leaving my ex boyfriend, who was abusive (abby's next door neighbor was beating his girlfriend, and abby convinced her to leave). So, see, tv can be good!!!!
alrighty kids...there are probably a million more i could write down that i enjoy (real world, queer eye, 24, clean sweep, the list goes on) but i will stop. picking sensation is over, i think, so back to work. ICK!

Hey to all, I do not get to watch a lot of TV but when I do my mom brought me up watching (As The World Turns, Young & The Restless & Guiding Light) I also Love to watch Bold & The Beautiful because it is soooo unreal or is it? I'm into too many kids shows because of my kids. So Sponge Bob SquarePants is my boyfriend cartoon ;D When I act like a grown-up I watch bits & pieces of the reality shows. I was hooked on Sex in the City!!!!Also The Soprano's... Peace, sos

-Frasier
-The Simpsons
-Malcolm in the Middle
-Seinfeld
-Two and a Half Men
-Cracking Up (before it was cancelled!)
I actually don't watch that much TV. These are just a few of the shows that I watch. Frasier, I think, is one of the most well written shows ever produced. I have seasons 1-3 on DVD! The Simpsons, MITM and Seinfeld also great shows. Seinfeld is clearly a classic. Two and a Half Men and Cracking Up are just shows I watch now and then (not every show). Cracking Up was pretty good, but it sadly didn't make the cut. To any loyal fans of it: Fox is airing the unseen episodes from after it was cancelled later this summer at some point. They'll probably show the first one's as well.

I hadn't seen Cracking Up but FOX just butchered some shows this year. They cancelled Wonderfalls after only 4 episodes (and there were 13 already produced). I love the show and have downloaded some of the unaired ones and it was just one of the most orignal, well scripted, well acted, and entertaining shows to hit television since I would say the mid-nineties.
Ok, enough mourning for the cancelled. I hate to admit but I've been watching the Simple Life 2 and was way too amused at those two stupid girls putting a metal pot in the micrwave. Putting them out on their own was a great choice, because they've screwed up everything so far, and it's only been two episodes.
I'm addicted to The Restaurant now, too. That guy is kind of a cutie. The first season of Top Model is airing so I'm into that as I didn't see it the first time around. Then I wanna see the new Amazing Race and Outback Jack. Oh my, I think I'm into way too much reality TV these days.

I get so hooked on those reality shows!!
I usually watch The Real World and have just starting watching The Ulitimate Love Test. There are so many reality shows, it just amazes me that these poeple want to have their lives shown on TV!

don't tell me im the only one that watches PASSIONS?! i was never into soap operas but this one started when i was about 15 or 16 so ive been watching it from the very beginning... i even have the book that tabitha was selling on the show when she didnt have enough money to buy timmy the ingredients to make "marTIMMY's"
i love friends... i dont know why everyone says 'loved" when they talk about friends because i find that now i have ample oppurtunities to see it... there are reruns on all the time.
same thing goes for seinfeld and sex and the city.
i must say i hate all these reality game show things.... but i am addicted to the game show network. i love the weakest link, friend or foe, the new whammy, and especially lingo.
after writing this i realize that i watch tons of tv! i never used to but i recently moved to another town and im not working as much as i used to so i have plenty of extra time (i figure its more productive to watch tv then pick at my face).
