What do you like to watch?
 
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.

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

jane032657 02-26-2012 10:22 PM

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

The Village Girl 02-26-2012 10:57 PM

Porn.

CatskillBill 02-26-2012 11:00 PM

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

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

jblum315 02-27-2012 04:43 AM

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 02-27-2012 05:35 AM

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 02-27-2012 05:52 AM

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

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 02-27-2012 10:05 AM

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:

: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.

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 02-27-2012 05:23 PM

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!!

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

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 02-27-2012 09:38 PM

back to the original question....
 
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.

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

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

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 02-28-2012 02:54 PM

You all make me laugh!
 
You are all too much! :1rotfl::1rotfl:

Belated SPOTD Award!
 
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 09-15-2012 07:41 AM

Like lots of shows.
 
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.
