I like that show Caliente! but the only show that I absolutely must see is 24. Sometimes I watch American Idol towards the end of the season and I really wish we'd elect Chef Gordon Ramsey to the US Presidency. You know, I see some David Sedaris in your style of writing. Especially in the book insecurity post. Nice work!
This made me laugh! I've long felt this way about people who claim they don't watch television.
Hilarious and so true. One of my closest friends became so after when we bonded over her random utterance of the phrase "This is where the magic happens" from which I immediately pegged her as a fellow Sunny fan. :-)
Great post. Very well written. A Mexican soap star, really? Sounds very dramatic and exotic. Good luck.
Em, I'm your sister and I don't watch T.V. (right now in school). Do you love me?
oh I would die without tv! although it's not my only passtime! you should go to madeira, it's really really beautiful! x
My friend and her family who don't have a tv are definitely the uppity religious types. Instead of watching tv, they learnt several foreign languages, made pastel drawings, papier mached decorative boxes, and learnt how to make stained glass. WOW. WOW. WOW.
GUILTY! I haven't seen most of the shows you mentioned, but I hope that doesn't mean you won't like me anymore! I would like to claim that there is a 3rd category of non-tv-watchers! I always say I don't watch tv, but what I mean is that I don't just watch whatever is on. But I do watch shows! What I like to do is wait until a series is entirely over, and then marathon through the episodes one after another. I find it so much more satisfying than waiting a week or more to find out what happened. For example, when you were sad that Pushing Daisies was canceled, I made a note of that (because I'd heard a lot of good things about it) and soon after viewed the entire show in about a month's time! And there are a few shows that I do follow along with (Lost, Dollhouse, Dexter, Big Love) because my husband makes me! I just realized I only watch these shows because he wants to (though I do enjoy them!). I would just never seek out tv on my own, and consequently do not relate to most humans! ahahha
