Smallville...

Ok, so it's not like I don't already watch WAY TOO MUCH telly--there's list posted around here somewhere...I've started dvr'ing Smallville. I always wanted to watch it, cuz the previews looked good, but could never fit it in. So now I'm dvr'ing 2 episodes a day.

Gawd, I'm pathetic.

Is there a 12 step program for tv addicts?

Maybe they will have a show like "Hoarders", only it will be for people hoarding tv recordings.
Or how about Dr. Drew? "Television Rehab"

the first step is admitting there's a problem.

The show Hoarders did have a person that hoarded recordings. They had something like 8 tv's all with VCR's and all they did was record shows. Their house was filled with VHS tapes. I've never seen anything like it.

I have trouble sleeping so I do watch a lot of tv...in between reading.

I think you may have a goldmine on your hands with "Television Rehab" I'd start shopping that while reality tv is hot.

I filled up the one that is inside the dvr. I don;t sleep at night much, so I watch lots of TV at night.

that's how I started watching a lot of tv. I have 3 dvrs--I only use two and the second one doesn't have much on it. I use On Demand a lot too--cuts down on the DVR amount.
