What are you watching?

edited October 2006 in General
Summer, the time of doldrums for tv and blockbusters for movies. Come on, you can't be working all the time, you have to be kicking back and relaxing at least a little. When you do, what do you watch?

    I've been watching alot of TNT and USA lately. I love any Law and Order. The first series is still my favorite even if I have seen most of them.

    Ack! Don't tell me I'm the only one hooked on reality TV? From Hell's Kitchen to So You Think You Can Dance, it's my guilty pleasure this summer.

    it always makes me kind of sad when i start watching a show on reruns/dvd when it's already been cancelled....
    and i seem to always like the shows that are doomed to get canned.

    I know just what you mean! It's like reading a book by someone who's not writing anymore. It's frustrating because you want it to go on but you know there won't be any more.

    One of my favourite shows is Rescue Me on Showcase, with Denis Leary. One of the funniest, bluntest shows out there. But I also can't wait for the OC to start up again. I'm not afraid to admit i'm addicted to that soap opera, even though it's kind of gone down hill. Although i'm really gald that marissa (mischa Barton) got killed off!! she was the most annoying character ever!! and she was way too skinny!! summer used to be super hot but she lost weight too. WTF!?!? i love my women to have curves!!

    I watch...

    Prison Break,
    House,
    Desperate Housewives,
    Grey's Anatomy,
    Lost,
    Boondocks,

    Cancel your cable and get a subscription to Zip.ca. That way you can watch all the movies (and TV shows on DVD) that you want, and not let television suck away your life.

    I cancelled mine when I realized that I wasn't even watching anything good anymore...

    yeah, but the problem is that watching tv shows like that, I don't get them the day they come out :D this is crazy, but I have to watch them EVERY week :P

    Aha! Sounds like an addiction to me... ;)

    The nice thing about watching shows on DVD is you can blast through an entire season in a week. I've been watching 2 episodes a day of The Office (okay, sometimes 3... haha).

    At least this way I make my own schedule instead of having to drop doing something interesting (does anyone study anymore? ;) ) just to catch that show I like.

    Maybe if you start watching some really good movies you might be able to rise above the mediocre level that TV is at.

    yeah, when I just started Grey's Anatomy, I started when Season 2 ended... I watched both seasons (1 & 2) in 3 days :D

    that was pretty crazy... same thing when I started naruto, but that's shit nowadays cos they are in fillers :)
