Guilty Pleasures: I won't admit it, but I watch ........

[Stinky The Clown]

Poll question: Guilty Pleasures: I won't admit it, but I watch ........

[tbyg52]

1. Not one single thing on that list.

I do watch Dancing with the Stars. (Go Woz!)

[cliffordu]

2. "The Prophesy"

I just love Christopher Walken.

[flvegan]

3. I watch Wealth on Wheels (Wealth TV).

I love cars, and any excuse to watch supercars and uberexotica works for me.

I also like the megayacht shows. Guess I like boats too.

The rest of it is shit. Wrestling has become too much of a script.

[Forkboy]

4. I love the History Channel. There's not nearly as much war stuff on there anymore.

Though I enjoyed most of that, too, as I have major interest in WW2. But they show plenty of fascinating shows. I just got rid of cable and it's the only channel I miss that doesn't televise hockey. :)

[napoleon_in_rags]

24. I too watch the Hitler/UFO channel.

Whenever they have UFO stuff on. I have a UFO fixation.

[ColbertWatcher]

5. Project Runway. (But if you tell anyone I will deny it.) n/t

[MadBadger]

6. I'm admitting it. I watch Faux 1/3 of the time and never CNN

[Drunken Irishman]

8. I don't watch MSNBC anymore because they're not in HD.

So if I watch the news, it's CNN.

[MadBadger]

16. They will be in HD in June, but I dont really care about HD, rather what I find more interesting

Im not interested in seeing all the skin deformities of Tweety or Ed Schultz.

[Drunken Irishman]

27. But I like to imagine myself licking the liver spots on Larry King's bald head.

[emilyg]

32. I'm with you.

[Drunken Irishman]

7. I love The History Channel and all things military.

[napoleon_in_rags]

25. Yeah, I was gonna say...military channel isn't a *guilty* pleasure.

like Faux news would be.

[Drunken Irishman]

30. Yeah, but we're on a liberal board, we should hate all things military. ;)

[teamster633]

36. I'm busted on the Military Channel and the History Channel, too.

I find the History International Channel more interesting than the History Channel, though, if only because there are fewer reality shows.

[Sheepshank]

9. my guilty pleasure

Hell's Kitchen

[chollybocker]

10. 'What Not to Wear' reruns, hockey games...

...and 'Ellen' everyday.

[Liberal_in_LA]

11. Celebrity Apprentice, other reality shows

[billyoc]

12. Rock of Love Bus.

or "White History Month". :evilgrin:

[aaaaaa5a]

13. Why is the History channel considered a guilty pleasure?

I think the History Channel is great I don't get the "Hitler" reference?


My guilty pleasure is American Idol!

[Chulanowa]

15. Because History Channel has two modes

World War 2 (and ALWAYS about the Nazis), or The Bible

[Forkboy]

22. That's not true though.

Not much war stuff. All of one single Hitler/Nazi related show, and not one on the Bible.

[Chulanowa]

31. The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones?

And they seem to have mixed themselves up with Discovery. Weird lineup.

And you missed "The Hitler Conspiracy" in there

[Forkboy]

35. No, I said there was a Hitler show in there.

I don't get the Indiana Jones/history connection either though. :)

[Warpy]

14. I love BBCA

and the people with the filthy houses who make me feel quite tidy in comparison. I love the people who eat only junk food getting introduced to vegetables. I even love the people rummaging around in their houses for (usually ugly) antiques to sell at auction to get some consumer trinket or other. I especially love Gordon Ramsay, whether he's cussing a blue streak or puking up a rotten scallop in an alley.

I love Ru Paul's "Drag Race" on LOGO, even though IMO the wrong queen won.

The one channel I don't love to the point that I can no longer watch it is HGTV, the house porn channel. Most of the people you see on it have gone on to foreclosure, their dreams turned to dust. The spoiled people buying dream properties on Caribbean islands make me want to vomit since I have a good idea what they did to the rest of us to be able to afford those million dollar properties. The makeovers are generally impractical, to say the least. I usually like the "before" picture better.

I also have a lot of trouble with the history channels showing so much religious and quasi religious programming. Enough, already, there are at least ten bible beater stations cluttering up the lineup and that should be plenty.

I guess BBCA is my closet viewing, the stuff I generally don't admit to in polite company, not that I see much polite company.

[rwheeler31]

17. Omg why do watch that crap?

[Stephanie]

18. Male-Centric List

Where are the Real Housewives?

[MedleyMisty]

19. umm - How I Met Your Mother on DVD?

It's a trippy vision into how the world works for extroverted "normal" people who go out and drink a lot and seem to totally buy into mainstream culture. We started watching it because it has the guy who played Dr. Horrible.

Haven't watched TV other than a couple of series on DVD in a decade and have never had cable in my life.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

20. "Tim Riggins" and that show he's in...

oh yeah, Friday Night Lights.

[tammywammy]

21. Bridezillas

[spoony]

23. I bought the DVDs of seasons 1 and 2

and keep them separate from the rest of my DVDs because my friends like to root through them, lol. Once they found Princess Bride and about a month later I came home and my walls had homemade Princess Bride posters all over the place. Men. Lol.

[TwilightGardener]

26. Loggers, Bobby Flay, Giardia DeLaurentis. Yeah, I watch 'em.

[bridgit]

28. Other: Holmes w/Brett, Poirot w/Suchet, Inspector Lynley & Foyle's War

[FreakinDJ]

29. Damm History channel gave me away

[XemaSab]

33. Bull Riding

:D

[OwnedByFerrets]

34. You left one off... NONE of the ABOVE.

[MiniMe]

37. I am addicted to Lost

[S n o w b a l l]

38. Bravo!

:fistbump:

[OutNow]

39. Wrestling? Andre the Giant would kick your butt

- except that he's dead.

I've watched wrestling since Gorilla Monsoon from Outer Mongolia (really from upstate New York) was in the squared circle.

The best in the last 15 or 20 years was the New World Order angle on NITRO.

The current stuff is bad, but I still watch it.

[CRF450]

40. UFC on Spike. I dont care what some elitist bunghole here says against it...

I friggin enjoy watching this stuff! Way better than most of the crap shown on television. Other favorite is The Universe on the History Channel (why the hate against Hist Ch here??) most of whats shown on that show should put most religious nutbags in their place even though most will never change their belief or scoff it off as BS.

[Onceuponalife]

41. I rule

I don't watch any of that garbage.

[enuegii]

42. I like to watch Giada cook anything...

in a big pot that needs to be stirred vigorously.

[NutmegYankee]

43. I'll proudly admit I watch the History Channel

There are a lot of good programs on that channel. Modern marvels, Cities of the Underworld, Shockwave, How the Earth was Made, The Presidents, Man Moment Machine, etc

[me b zola]

44. Bobby Flay

:loveya:

[Hannah Bell]

45. Project Runway. Shameful, I know.
