TV JUNKIE

I've had a lot of pressure lately about writing on this...I've decided to give it another try.

I am a TV Junkie. Here's my excuse: I am going, going, going all day long and by the time it is primetime I am so worn out that all I do is sit on the couch and watch tv. No, I'm not proud of it. It's actually a little hypocritical since I am a tv nazi during the day and won't let my kids watch more than an hour of Dora the Explorer. I analyze most everything that I watch on the tube, and can even participate in lengthy discussions to contemplate what is going to happen next. It's amazing how much I get into the shows that I watch. I have my favorites that I will be a forever fan (Amazing Race and Gilmore Girls) but I have found that I get sucked in and it's hard to get back out. I've decided that this is because of living in PA where the sun don't shine and it's too dern cold to go outside (usually) during the winter months--does winter ever end here?

So, here's how I feel about "my shows". I am glad that Rory and Lorelai have made up and that they are back to normal--whatever that is for them. I am tired of the whole Luke and Lorelai thing, I mean just get married already! I'm tired of the reruns too. Let's just get on with the season.

As for the Amazing Race, so far my favorite team is the "hippies". They are very entertaining to watch and are just plain nice to everyone. It's funny to watch the older couple complete the tasks and to watch the other teams fight. It's still a little too early for me to decide who I want to win and stick with that team.

There's another show that I like called "Mythbusters" but I can't for the life of me stay awake for it so I never know if it is busted or not. Just give me the last 15 minutes and I'll be done with it.

So, there you have it. My two bits on tv. If you wonder how I feel about any other show, just ask. Chances are I've seen it and I have an opinion.
