My children wrote about their favorite fall TV shows in their blogs- So I guess I'll admit that I do have a few guilty pleasures on television. The following are the list that I watch:
Sunday Night: Brothers and Sisters
I am a bit annoyed by a few of the story lines- and I find some of it VERY uncomfortable to watch! IE: Kevin and his partner. (I forgot the name) I have to cover my eyes when they show affection.... it's just ....uncomfortable. I do not like the ultra liberal bias of the show, but there is something about it that is engaging. All of the other story lines are pretty interesting--except for the Tommy and whoever line. I don't even remember his wife's name.
Tuesday Night: Biggest Loser
Both Jack and I love this show. You get involved with the people on there, and it's just so inspiring to watch them all lose this huge amount of weight and to get healthy! In fact, it just makes me want to jump off the couch and do some weight lifting. Of course, I would have to finish the bowl of "Chocolate Almond Indulgence" that Jack and I must eat while we are watching the show.
Wednesday Night: America's Got Talent- and starting in January... LOST!
This show was only on for the summer, and ended this past Wednesday-- but we loved it. The talent was incredible, and the last 5 remaining were all absolutely stand outs! I hoped that the winning talent would be Eli Matsom. (Not sure if that is how his last name is spelled) Not only was he very good looking- but he has this amazing voice! His style is definitely all his own, but he does remind me of a cross between Elton John and Billy Joel. (My favorite 2 artists). He plays the piano and sings... and I could listen to him for a long long time. Sadly, he came in 2nd place- but I'm sure that we will hear more of him in the future. If he doesn't get a record contract- then I'll be shocked.
LOST--- The most interesting and complex show on TV. I have to admit that season 2 or 3 seemed to be going no where- but this past season, it was really revived!! I can't wait until they begin again... and will not have repeats all season. Great move- as the reruns really are annoying and certainly add to the "losing interest" element.
Thursday Night: Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy
These 2 are both very guilty pleasures. Ugly Betty is just wacky enough to be funny, and the story line is interesting enough to hold my attention. Of course, ALL of the credit goes to America Ferrara. She is wonderful in the role. I hope they let her become "pretty" sometime.
Grey's Anatomy is so well written and well acted that I am addicted. I love this show. Of course, I wish there wasn't so much bed hopping involved.
So, that's it. I'm glad to have TIVO or whatever recording things that we use. I always let at least 20-30 minutes pass before I begin watching the shows. Then, as I fast forward past the commercials, I ususally end up in real time at the very end. Saves a lot of time and frustration.

For some reason I cannot get into Brothers and Sisters. Ben watches it every Sunday, but for some reason I just don't care about it. Too much crazy drama in that crazy family.
