Why I'm writing this blog

The trigger that has now prompted me to write this blog is that this total condescending judgmental douche from work acts all high and almighty every time I start talking about television with someone. It's really waring on my patience. Yes, I do watch too much T.V. Is it a problem? Probably. Do I want some inconsequential prick telling me so? Absolutely not.

Moving on, when I first started writing yesterday, I realized that my beef with most television shows is that some character is too ugly, and it's distracting. I stopped writing because I didn't want people to think I was shallow and only watched T.V. because people are beautiful. Truth, that IS why I watch T.V. I see ugly people every time I walk out my front door. Is it that awful that I want my T.V. watching experience to remain fictional and completely unbelievable? It's why I watch Sci-Fi and Desperate Housewives. Now, I watch America's Next Top Model and Project Runway because I absolutely love the world of fashion, and let's be honest, most people involved are beautiful.

So if you have a problem with the superficial and vain, then don't read this blog. I embody superficiality and vanity, and I escape to television to relish in it. Here are the shows I watch: Feel free to comment on any one of them. I'll start with Sunday and move from there.

MadMen (It is believable according to my mom, but not in my world)
Desperate Housewives (Gabby makes me laugh)
Entourage (it's like sex and pizza, even when it's bad, it's good)
Californication (have missed season 2 completely, someone still hasn't returned it to the video store)
Curb Your Enthusiasm (only occasionally, but they're all TIVOed so I can watch one if I need to)
House (best show on television right now)
Gossip Girl (usually just fast forward to see what everyone is wearing)
Heroes (I fast forward through most of this, probably my last season watching)
90210 (again, for the fashion, but some of the characters are growing on me)
America's Next Top Model (say what you will about Tyra, I like her)
Criminal Minds (probably my 2nd favorite right now)
CSI: NY (sorry Gary, it's getting old, and what's with all the 'to be continued...'s)
NCIS (I'm not completely caught up)
Project Runway (probably my last season, unless they restructure the show)
The Office (very disappointing season)
Community (if you haven't jumped on this bandwagon, you need to)
Smallville (hopefully it's their last season; however, Justin Hartley is the sexiest man alive)
Ghost Whisperer (nothing else is on on Fridays besides Smallville, I dread watching both)
24 (I love Jack Baur)
Dexter (I'm only caught up through season 3, please let me know if you know of a way to watch all of season 4)

I might be forgetting some, and of course there are the occasional Animal Planet shows I tune into, but for the most part, this is my line up. Please feel free to talk to me about any of these shows. My favorite thing to do in the world is discuss T.V. and I started this blog because I was hoping there were people out there who were as addicted, even to one show, as much as I am.
