TV - 2006

I'm going to go ahead and update my TiVo list. I know you've been on pins and needles waiting for such an event.

(Note: I have since purchased a SECOND DirecTiVo for my bedroom. Awesome isn't it?)

Ok. So CSI (all of them) was on my list and I had expressed the genius of them, but I'm already burnt out on them. It's not hard. It's the same formula every episode. Not that that's a bad thing, you can watch whenever you want, be entertained and then totally forget what you just saw. My time is limited. I have "deeper" things to watch.

Like my new favorite show that I can't believe I've never given a chance before, "The Shield". Or, the new season of Survivor - Exile Island. (There are possible tense issues with this last sentence)

Disclaimer: This is not everything on my TiVo's. I still record CSI and some other half loved television shows. It's just that I only save one or two, and if I don't watch them, they are just replaced with new ones. (Anyone else notice how much BS I can type about the most non important things? I'm pretty sure it's some sort of condition.)

Watching assloads of television is a real waste of energy and time. Unless! you combine this heinous activity with an activity of good use. Folding clothes and/or clipping your nails (hands and feets) while watching, almost makes it ok.

SHUDDUP ARMANDO!

  • Survivor - This thing just never gets old to me. Whole family watches every week.
  • 24 - Jack is God.
  • Lost
  • The Shield
  • Gilmore Girls - As if.
  • Veronica Mars
  • The Office - The original is still the funniest show ever, but this little show that could is the best 30 minute show on TV.
  • How I Met Your Mother - Almost Friends like. My 2nd favorite 30 minute show.
  • House - Watch it. I dare you. USA. Friday Nights. Season 1 is a rockin'.
  • Reruns of Alias from the beginning on TNT. They run though the night on Wednesdays, 6 episodes every week. Genius. Season 1 is now in full effect. (As my condition contnues to rear it's ugly head).)
  • Survivorman - Les izDaMan!!11 howicanbethemanwhenLESistheman, youdamanLes, Shake It Uppppppp! (If Jack and Les joined up, they would kick Chuck Norris' ass and take over the world!!!)
  • WWE Raw - May be the absolute dumbest thing on TV and I have and will love it forever.
  • TNA Impact! - More wrestling. See above.
  • Related - Yes, you read that right. The WB show about 4 sisters. Two of the lead stars are Latina and I support Latino's in the media. (even thought their characters are Italian) Something about this retarted show just sucks me in. Ok, so I love cheese. Sue me.

No way I miss the top three on that list. Everything else is a bonus. Still a very unstable amount of TV if you ask me, and I've cut down. Thank Technology for the TiVo. I wouldn't be able to watch otherwise.

This condition is only stabilized by Blogging.

Other than The Office, I have to download the shows I like. Two BBC series that don't play over here: The Robinsons, and The IT Crowd. Both are friggin' brilliant.

I love The Robinsons, per your recommendation. I've seen all of season 1 on BBC America. Twice. I wonder if they have season 2 on Netflix....

American Idol is another one the whole family gets together and watches.
