Wink How much TV do you watch?


Before I stopped working (ironically) I realized that I was watching a lot of TV. I think this might have been because after a long day at work, after putting my son to bed, I was so tired I just wanted to relax on the couch.

So I've curbed this a little.

The TV is on a lot, but the shows I actually stop and watch:

CSI Miami (sometimes)
The Unit
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
ER
sometimes evening news shows like Dateline or 20/20
Brothers & Sisters (sometimes)
The Amazing Race (when it's on)

Wow, is that a lot? Or not? What do you watch??

Shows I actually watch:
Amazing Race
Desperate Housewives
American Idol
House
Bones
Survivor
Greys Anatomy
Jericho

During the day, the tv is on all day, but mostly just for background noise while I'm cleaning or playing on the computer.

We generally have either the Food Network, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, or the History Channel on. Very rarely do we have the "Big 3" networks on. We watch them for local news, and that's about it.

Mine would have to be Friday Night Lights, American Idol, Ugly Betty, Vega, Grey's Anatomy, House and I have been watching the Soprano's on A&E. Wow I didn't realize I watched so many shows. Oh, I forgot ER.

Less and less TV these days but I still wouldn't be stuck on a deserted island without my Tivo!

Big HBO fan here -- Deadwood, Big Love, The Wire, and Sopranos (in that order). Also Carnivale which HBO pulled! ER, Survivor ... I must be forgetting some other network shows... Dateline, 20/20, Nova, lots of Discovery and TLC! Oh and some of the bad reality shows ... anything with Flavor Flav is a winner in my book.

Edit: Not sure how I forgot Lost.

My favorites are Monk, Psych, Boy Meets World, and Deal or No Deal.

We don't get Game Show Network, unfortunately, or I'd watch that a lot more often!

Default Re: How much TV do you watch?

Not very much, at the moment I have the laptop on and SciFi channel in the background. Ususally mrs. gets to watch what she wants as whatever I watch - History Channel, TLC or Discover is boring. With SciFi I sometimes watch it to see how bad some of the movies get.
But normally its maybe an hour an evening at most.
