What do you like to watch?

[Happinow]

When you all have time to sit and watch tv, what are some of your favorite shows? Are you a sports nut? A news channel nut? Maybe you like the food network or home and garden?

My favs are Top Chef, Project Runway, Property Virgins, Holmes on Holmes, house hunters and Chopped.

[getdul981]

I like the home improvement shows. Especially "Renovation Realities". Also love sitcoms and detective shows.

[jane032657]

Happinow, Why am I NOT suprised House Hunters is one of your favorite shows?

[The Village Girl]

Porn.

[CatskillBill]

I watch almost any sport, but especially love college basketball and PGA golf. I try to watch every episode of Big Bang Theory, The Mentalist, American Pickers, Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares, NCIS, and most things on the HGTV, DIY, Science, Discovery, Military, History, BBCA, and Velocity channels.

The best new mystery show I feel this year is, CBS's Person Of Interest. Lots of twists, well written, and it really holds my interest. If you never watched it, give it a try.

Go 'CUSE

[Barefoot]

Porn.

You really need to come to the next TOTV lunch so we can all meet you. You're a hoot.

[jblum315]

I watch only Netflix movies, some movies on TCM, and anything that's on PBS Masterpiece. I did watch HBO's Boardwalk Empire for a while, but not now.

[tainsley]

Revenge on ABC (edge of your seat suspense) is my favorite new show. HGTV's House Hunters, Divine Design and Yard Crashers. I also like American Idol (so much talent in everyday people) and Dancing With The Stars (there may be hope for me). The Daily Show...funny! And NatGeo...informative and beautiful!

[graciegirl]

NCIS, The Mentalist, ?......Suspect, Body of Evidence, HGTV. Antiques Roadshow. Golf

[skyguy79]

Porn.There is no Porn in Lake Sumter... What? That's supposed to be pee? Oh! Never mind! :mornincoffee:

[Happinow]

You really need to come to the next TOTV lunch so we can all meet you. You're a hoot.

I expect this lunch is at Crispers?? I don't even know where that is! I need simple directions cause so far I'm familiar with 466, 466A, Morse Blvd and 441, Buena Vista and of course the squares. I will be moving in May, so that's probably when I'll get to the next luncheon. I look forward to seeing you there!

[Jim 9922]

Who needs tv to be entertained? I just go down to one of the local round-abouts and watch for all the supposed bumping and banging and maneuvering for position. It beats watching the Daytona 500!

:a040:

Ah, yes, TheVillages .5!
Maybe they should install seats around the perimeter and charge admission (no saving of seats allowed like at the squares). :laugh: :icon_twisted:

In the meantime, I like PBS shows, travel, history, ancestry, Antiques Roadshow, This Old House and other remodeling shows.

Crispers is on the third Friday of the month at 3 PM in the Southern Trace Shopping Mall on 466.

[Happinow]

Crispers is on the third Friday of the month at 3 PM in the Southern Trace Shopping Mall on 466.

Thank you. If things go smoothly, we will try to make it on the third Friday in May. I believe we will be flat out busy trying to make our house a home, so if I don't make it I'm sure you'll understand. We will put in on our calendars for both May and June! Thanks.

[swrinfla]

Happinow:

Please note that "being busy making our house a home" is not really an acceptable reason for missing a TOTV lunch! You'll need a break as much as, if not more than, anyone who's been here a while.

See you on May 18!

Ok, we'll clear our calendar for 3rd Friday in May! And, you are right. I believe we will need a break by then. Look forward to meeting everyone!!

Yes, we would like to meet you, Village Girl.

Thank you ladies, but I haven't been allowed in Chrispers since the incident!

[Barefoot]

Thank you ladies, buti haven't been allowed in Chrispers since the incident!

It's true that when you showed up topless in December, some of the wait staff were concerned you would catch cold.

[graciegirl]

Thank you ladies, buti haven't been allowed in Chrispers since the incident!

I was there. It was quite something. Even for The Villages. But I don't care what everybody says. I still like you. But if I were you I wouldn't do that again on roller skates. And you might make a few costume adjustments. Just sayin....Some people have heart conditions.

[ssmith]

I have recently just discovered "Once Upon a Time". I am really enjoying it but have to catch the old ones on-line to get caught up...

Village Girl...you are funny and Happinow hope you do make it to
the Crispers...I would love to be there.

[Pathel]

Thank you ladies, buti haven't been allowed in Chrispers since the incident!

Not THAT incident.....the one reported on the front page of the Sun?????

Maybe we will skip the Crispers thing. Thank you anyway.

I don't think I will ever be the same after watching THAT.............. :shocked:

Some people go from zero to sixty here real quick. It wasn't that bad.

But she was looking a little low that day.

Gracie! Shame on you! Hahahaha!

NCIS, The Closer, Bones, Person of Interest, Body of Proof, The Mentalist, The Finder, Leverage, Masterpiece Theater.

The shows I don't enjoy are the reality shows & the elimination shows. I don't like it when somebody gets voted off. I like scripts and story lines and real acting & directing & sets.

Just give me a good murder mystery, and I'm a happy viewer! lol

[Happinow]

You are all too much! :1rotfl::1rotfl:

[swimdawg]

I have been slacking off on the SPOTD Award....and I'm just now reviewing old posts since arriving at Swimdawg North :cold: from The Land 'o the Sun and Fun. :) There are some other posts from this thread that I missed....but it's entertaining stuff. Congrats to all who posted last nite! You all get the SPOTD Award!

(I'm not good at taking bits and pieces from the thread....but I'll try).

Anyone watch Suits, it is a great show just ended but will start up again in Jan., also like Good Wife, and Revenge. Looks like an interesting season.

[Taltarzac725]

Just started watching Face-Off which is a competition for Hollywood make-up artists. Funny thing is the host often looks like she has a paint sprayed on tan. Could be my television. http://www.mckenzie-westmore.com/

Enjoy many of the USA shows like Covert Affairs, Burn Notice, White Collar, Psych.

Still love NCIS after all these years; and its newer counterpart NCIS-LA. The remake of Hawaii Five 0 is also OK.

Revenge is fascinating.

Cable shows are good too like True Blood, Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, etc.

We like Dancing with the Stars, The Amazing Race. This summer we LOVE LEVERAGE!!!

[Schaumburger]

Army Wives -- Was the last show shown last week the series finale or the season finale? I have read different things on the Internet. Seemed like too much of a cliff hanger to be a series finale.

Leverage -- I have had a huge crush on Timothy Hutton since he debuted on the big screen 30+ years ago in "Ordinary People" which is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Rizzoli and Isles

Major Crimes

Hawaii Five 0, Blue Bloods and The Good Wife -- looking forward to them returning in a few weeks with new episodes.

[Count'n the days]

College Football
Modern Family (Really Funny - Looking so forward to new season)
Dancing With the Stars (Every season I think I'll be tired of it - yet to happen)
Network News
HGTV
NASCAR (Hubby - not me. I would like to block, but we may not see our 39th anniversary if I did.)

[Dr Winston O Boogie jr]

My wife just came here from the Philippines and had never seen most American television. She is currently really into Seinfeld and Friends reruns. I like to watch mostly news programs and golf. We also love the Big Bang Theory. I got the MLB package so I could watch the Red Sox, but unfortunately they're having "a bit of an off year", so I've kind of lost interest.

[Barefoot]

Parenthood
Survivor
The Apprentice
Greys Anatomy

[BritParrothead]

At the moment I am watching, The Finder, The Glades, CSI Miami (I need a Florida fix now autmn is here :icon_wink: ) We also get a couple of Australian crime shows, more 'gritty' than US crime shows. One is, 'Underbelly'
Worth looking up to watch on line, it is set in Melbourne about the local Maffia. Though I do not like the bad language!

Will have to check these out.

The new season of Dexter started last night. It should be interesting to see how Dexter interacts with his sister.

Loved The Finder and regret that it looks like they axed it. Cannot say I will miss CSI: Miami that much. It too got the can.

[jblum315]

The shows on my DVR list are Castle, Boardwalk Empire, Doc Martin,Prime Suspect, Treme and Revolution. I also watch, but don't record, Pawn Stars and American Pickers and Antiques Roadshow.

[BritParrothead]

We too, love Doc Martin. His character is too funny. My husbands doc is just like him :laugh:
We also like this part of Cornwall, and visit a couple of times a year!
Can you understand the locals accents?

Not entirely. It's kind of like knowing enough of a foreign language to ask where's the bathroom and to order coffee. But I"m getting better at it.

[Trish Crocker]

Love Royal Pains, Burn Notice, NCIS, Law and Order Special Victims Unit (but not as much since Stabler left) and Modern Family..also watch HGTV, especially Candice Olsen..and occasionally Hoarders...just to feel like a great housekeeper. Lately I've been watching a few shows about hauntings...I watch, laugh at how stupid and fake it all is....then find myself jumping anytime I hear a noise in my house. Think I need to stop watching!

[karostay]

This will stir up a hornets nest :pepper2:
I like to Watch Golf, Bowling, Tennis
The true sports
Each week these professionals have to preform to the best of their ability
or don't get paid. Sure the top ones have endorsement's they earned it.
Wasn't handed to them
The other ball sports Baseball,Basketball Football are all college graduates that become millionaires overnight that wear a uniform and it doesn't matter if they produce or fail. Most don't have any idea of the meaning of the word TEAM. Only where's the money

[2BNTV]

I'm sure a case can be made for certain players that have a guaranteed contract so if they get hurt, they still will be paid. Therefore, there isn't a great need to produce. It is funny how a player produces in the last year of his contract in order to get a bigger contract.

I'd like to think that almost all players want to reap some reward of their efforts in terms of championships. The caveat is that some players look at it like a job.

It does pertrurb me when I see a player making millions and not hustling.
Can you hear me Robbie Cano and Nick Swisher?

[ladydoc]

I like some of the new shows and Copper is the best one. It is on BBCAmerica and is about a police detective in 1860s New York's Five Points. Excellent acting and stories.

Also like Revolution and The New Normal. Big Bang is one of my all time favorites. However, I like to read more then watch TV.

[karostay]

I've never heard of negotiating a contract for golf bowling or tennis
Earn your keep or drop from the top of list.
The others I've had a great college career who's the highest bidder

[BritParrothead]

I only got into Big Bang this past June, when we were in The villages! Well, hat can I say??? Sooooo funny, it is on 3 times a day here in the south of England, playing catchup i think. Sheldon just cracks me up! :) We were at a partt on Saturday, and one of the younger guests was tyhe image of Sheldon!! Same type of Geek/Nerd as well. Even the lad agreed with us, bless him :laugh::1rotfl:
