My Favorite Television Program

Well if you couldn't tell that I love movies from the previous post, I'll bet you never guess how I feel about t.v.! It would be easier for me to list the television shows that I hate. Seriously. I enjoy just about everything. So I am tweeking this one-I really am going to tell you a few things on television that I abolutely HATE!

Here goes:

American Idol-I think it runs every night for at least 2 hours. Barf.
Everybody Loves Raymond-I'm getting sick of the reruns....and the reruns of the reruns.
All of those "Loosing Weight Shows"-I use to like them, but they kind of cut into my own exercising time. Bit ironic, don't ya think?
Malcolm in the Middle-Sometimes when I fall asleep with the t.v. on I will be woken up at 12:30 am because of the ridiculously annoying theme song and stupid Frankie Muniz girl-screaming into the camera. Makes me want to put a rock through his face. Oops! I mean the television screen!
Awkward shows that the CW shows on Sunday-A few weeks ago, Ryan and I came home from church, got lunch started, turned the tv on and what is on the box? Freaking Sin City! And a partially naked lady. This show should only be on HBO. We were so shocked! We now steer really clear of channel 30 on Sunday.
Mr. Sunshine-Haven't even seen it. The commercials were just so darn annoying that I hated it even before it started. And they were everywhere! In my magazines! On the tv! On the RADIO! I think they shot themselves in the foot while over-advertising for this one.
and finally:
Presidential Addresses-I really don't mind that they show these on tv, and I actually quite like listening to Obama speak (please don't stone me! He is just a very good speaker! And I kinda get emotional when politicians say nice things:) Even if they don't mean them or if they do mean them, they really can't do anything. Like the kid running for Student Body President that promises new vending machines and longer lunch hours:) Here is the thing that I really have a problem with: Ryan and I choose to only have the free digital channels in our house plus netflix. So, when a presidential address comes on, it WIPES OUT MY ENTIRE EVENING!!! I want choices people! If I want to listen to the President, I will turn to that channel. If I want to watch something else, I WANT SOMETHING ELSE TO BE ON! Stop hijaking all my channels. Thank-you.

And that is about it. I'm sure there are others, but as previously mentioned, I only have limited channel options and therefore, limited amounts of shows to hate.

Condensed list of shows I love: (Big gasp of air....)Hawaii Five-O, Castle, The Bachelor (and all branch-offs), Glee, Lie to Me, Human Target, 90210, NCIS:Los Angeles, CSI, CSI:NY, CSI:Miami, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family, One Tree Hill, Vampire Diaries, Nikita, Off the Map, Leverage, What Not to Wear, House Hunters, Bones, The Mentalist, etc., etc., etc...

I am just so easily entertained! I can watch just about anything and love it.

Give me anything with a little romance, a little mystery, a makeover, a crime, some funny laughs, fighting, or a music number and I am on board!

30 Day Challenge-Day 1

FAVORITE SONG

I love these kinds of questions. I always feel unsettled. What if I answer wrong? What if I say one song and then I remember a different song that I like more? So stressful! That being said, I think I will tell a few of my favorite songs and why I like them so much.

The Back of Your Hand by Dwight Yoakam
such a gorgeous song about a couple that has been together for so long that she starts to question who he is anymore.

Mendicino County Line by Allison Krauss and Willie Nelson
I have no idea what this song is about but it is such a good duet!

Colder Weather by The Zac Brown Band
This one is sad. This guy leaves behind a girl that loves him.

It seems that I enjoy kinda sad songs. They are just so beautiful!
