Most of the so-called "reality" shows are anything but real, and anyone with any intelligence should be able to tell that they are scripted, and all of the "drama" has been invented. At the first hint I immediately turn the channel. Naked & Afraid on the Discovery channel & Intervention (now cancelled -WHY?)on A&E are about the only true reality shows. Love them both.
The shows & channels we watch most often are:
News channels (anything but unfair & unbalanced Fox News)
60 Minutes
Dateline on NBC
20/20 on ABC
Frontline on PBS
48 Hours Mystery on CBS Saturday nites
COPS on Fox
HGTV House Hunters
Velocity Channel - car shows & auctions
American Pickers - History Channel
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - Comedy Central
Palladia channel - rock concerts
Seinfeld re-runs
Family Guy re-runs
and of course...Alabama Crimson Tide Football in the fall.
And yet another person who really misses the comedic genius of Johnny Carson. I began staying up late when I was in the 6th or 7th grade (late 60s) & it didn't take long to get me hooked. Rarely missed his show. My mom & dad who always went to bed early used to comment that I would often wake them up with my loud laughter, downstairs. A few years later my mom began watching him & soon became a devoted fan, too. He & Ed & Doc were the greatest!
