Guilty TV Pleasures...

[the chi]

I havent seen more than one episode of True Blood, but I read almost all the books, comparing notes with a friend who watches but hasnt read the books, sounds like they arent really sticking to the books much. I plan on watching when I can stream it.

Forgot to list South Park, King of the Hill, Family Guy and Futurama because I don't watch them nearly as much.


I much prefer shows that have a continuing story line as opposed to shows that every one is a completely different situation.

With true blood, I was told by my old roommate to watch the first season and stop, it wasn't worth watching after.

I dunno man, the way the last season ended totally blew my mind... I totally saw it coming, but I couldn't convince myself that it would really happen. I'm interested in how the character development shifts now...

Season 2 of True Blood was WEIRD... real fucking weird. Still interesting, but just really far out there... I almost lost interest, but they delve deeper into the vampire heirarchy and culture which kept me coming back. I hear season 3 is already better than season 2...

Keeping Up With the Kardashians. I dont watch it regularly but if Im home on Saturday and nothings on Ill watch it just to see Kim K's big bubble butt.

No regrets.

I went on a Prison Break binge at the beginning of the summer. Pretty good show, beginning to end.

Did spartacus get renewed for a 2nd season? That show was pretty awesome. I watched the whole thing in one day of being super sick and I just layed in bed.

True blood show does take some pretty wild liberties compared to the books, but in general it follows many of the same themes, even if season 3 had a ton of stuff in it from the later books. They also seem to focus more on the bill/sookie relationship being a good one (at least until 1/2 way through this season), vs the book where bill is a dick and eric is the one you root for the whole time.

I have some guilty pleasures already... Mostly reality TV, which I am completely ashamed of, but at least it's not the MTV crap.

So who's watching Pawn Stars, Pit Boss, American Pickers, Hoarders, or Stan Lee's Super Humans?

I am and I'm fucking hooked.

I just got satellite after not having cable since January. I couldn't afford that and going to school. Damn I missed it.

I just started watching Pawn Stars and I like that. Watched a few hours of it yesterday. American Pickers I haven't seen yet but I might check out.

I like..

The Big Bang Theory
How I Met Your Mother
Top Gear

Shit there is a bunch more but I can't remember them.

Oh..

Ice Road Truckers
Rob & Big
Dirt Trax Television
Rob Dyrdek Fantasy Factory

I also just picked up a hard drive for my sat box. 335 minutes or so of HD or 1000 hours of SD PVR storage.

Everything I just listed is set to record. As I remember the other shows I used to watch I will at them to the list.

I can't stand Kenny vs Spenny. Fuck they piss me off. One guy is a fucking idiot and the other is a whiny little bitch. I would rather put my dick in a blender then to watch that show again.

I forgot about Tosh.0. I watched that once while at the Fire station during on the job training. I liked it. I just added it to my PVR record list. Thanks.
