One Tree Hill.

I come home from work on Tuesday with "One Tree Hill" and "Glee" recording on the DVR so I can't change the channel. Needless to say, I head straight for the computer.

We watched Glee for the first time ever last night. We didn't make it through even half of it. I was pleasantly surprised that after 12 minutes, my wife said "Change this crap, let's watch The League!"


I love her! :)

Is everything
I'm convinced almost all network shows and most of cable is geared toward the female demographic (you know, the species who spends money on stuff at retail outlets that a lot of advertisers want to reach). So for us guys, it's slim pickings.

Winning Friends and Influencing the People in My H
Grey's Anatomy. We have 1 DVR and my wife will not change her mind on not recording this show so I can record Fringe.

Joel O'Steen. She'll keep months of the infomercials to raise money for his bank account and watch them repeatedly.

Too Fat for 15.

Any TLC pregnancy show. Especially hate being the same room with her when it's the "didn't know I was pregnant" shows. Seems like every episode has some lady who thinks she's going #2 and out pops her kid.

It's been a couple of years, but Jess watched every reality show ever. The baby shows were awful.

I used to go to a bar in Jersey that would sometimes have surgery shows on. I was always like, dude, we're having dinner here. I think that the previous program would end and then that one would come on. Still, I find it silly that I would have to ask for the surgery show to be taken off of TV at a restaurant.

Where to begin...
1. Hoarders. I can't stand that show, it's too depressing to see people live that way.
2. The Biggest Loser
3. Kardashians (both shows and I hear there's going to be a 3rd)
4. Too Fat for 15
5. Teen Mom
6. 19 Kids and Counting
7. Chelsea Lately (NOT FUNNY AT ALL!!!!)
8. Fashion Police

That's just off the top of my head. She used to watch Jon and Kate Plus 8 but does not watch Kate Plus 8. I'm actually OK with all of this because her TV time gives me plenty of time to play video games.

My wife watches also. There's something about the 'nasal twang' in the narrators voice that bugs me.

...and to defend myself, I only started watching because of our hometown gal (and my daughter's classmate) being on the show. I hadn't watched previous seasons & won't watch future seasons.

Judges ask if you watch the whole show or just the part "gal" is on?

And how many episodes have you seen?

Almost every episode of the season and I'd say more often than not, the entire show. Although sometimes she only wanted the local gal.

No, not nearly every episode--remember, it was on twice a week--I usually only caught one of the two, if at all, and maybe 1/2 of those I only watched her part.

BUT, I truly did enjoy the show; I like dancing. Wish I could.
