Mostly, on TV, I watch sports. I have watched no network show for several years. I did watch an adaptation of a spy novel on TNT about a year ago. I occasionally watch PBS, especially when they have Mystery. And there will likely be one of those to watch in a couple months, as P D James came out with what is likely the final Dalgleich story. I'm pretty selective about sports. NFL & NBA, the occasional college equivalents and T&F (which in the US, doesn't take up much of my time). On the small screen, mostly I watch DVDs.

Watching TV for me is sports, Judge Judy and a movie here and there."A beautiful theory killed by an ugly fact."

I can proudly say I've never seen a moment of any reality show or sitcom or series. Once the westerns went belly up it was sports and movies and the once in awhile History Channel.Comment

I got suckered into watching the Bachelor this season, because one of the ladies works where my wife does. She made it to the last five. If he had known that she was independently wealthy, he might not have been so quick to dismiss her. But this show was so terribly contrived and staged that it may have reached a "jump the shark" moment.
Texas, you might want to google that last reference as it pertains to "Happy Days". :wink:Comment

Judge Judy is reality TV.
Actually, it seems to me that what everyone else calls reality TV is, in fact, totally contrived TV.Comment

I did not watch the program but a few years ago, the "millionaire" Batchelor was a young, handsome, presumably wealthy resturanteur, with three names, from Oklahoma City. I have driven past his resturant on a major street bordering the "old money" part of town a jillion times but did not know it was there until an annoucement last year that it was closed and the Batchelor had declared bankruptcy.Comment
