...drops everything to watch a special on TV or something? Like, this weekend TVland is showing a 48 hour Three's Company marathon and I told my friends ahead of time not to call me or come over cause I'm to busy watching TV. A couple of them were like "Really, I've got to watch it! No one call me either!" But a few just sit around and call me every five minutes just to bother me!:mad: (Which is one of the reasons I'm on the internet, to block the phone line;) )

That's exactly how I am! The "The Carol Burnett Show" special, "Let's Bump Up the Lights" aired this past Wednesday night. It was only an one-hour special, but I dropped everything to sit down to watch it! :cool:

I literally SCREAM at people when they call me during AI. Then I hang up on them.

That's what I did about an hour ago. My friend Brittany was like "Hi Hannah, whatcha doin'? Want to talk." I was like "WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!!!!???? I TOLD YOU THAT I'D BE WATCHING MY FAVORITE TV SHOW ALL WEEKEND, SO LEAVE ME ALONE AND DON'T CALL ME AGAIN, BITCH!" And then I hung up the phone. And she kept calling!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

If a favorite movie or TV show comes on, I will drop everything to watch, no questions asked.

Give me a "Star Trek" Marathon on Spike TV and I'm a happy camper.

If a show that I really happen to be interested in comes on, then I will make it a priority.

When we watch a movie or a show on tv, all phones (cellphones and regular phones) get shut off.

I've got a big screen with surround sound. It's lights out, and we don't talk, unless we put it on pause. My livingroom takes on the atmosphere of a theater.

I won't watch movies with anyone but my husband and two other people. Everyone else talks too much, and that's a huge peeve of mine.

I do that too. I think none of my friends understand it though, so there are times I have to agree to go out when I'd really rather watch my favorite show. (I know, I know... I shouldn't let them boss me around. But it happens. :o )

Someone called me again!:mad: My other friend Zach called and said "Hey Hannah, can I come over to your house?" I said " Okay, first of all it is like totally rude to invite yourself to someone elses house. Second of all, I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE THREE'S COMPANY IS ON!!!! then he had the nerve to tell that it was just a TV show and that it's not important. I was like "IT'S IMPORANT TO ME OKAY!!!" And he was like "Ya, know Hannah you really need to get a life." and I screamed "**** YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And then I slammed the phone down.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I recite the whole movie :D Like Chicago and Moulin Rouge, oh man, people should NOT watch those with me if they actually want to hear the actors.

Anyways, I'm the same way, I FREAK OUT when people call during good shows. Especially when Paula's on them :D

lol! Ugh, my friends don't at all think it is rude to invite themselves over to my house. It is so rude and annoying! That sounds like what I do when my friends call when I am watching Leave it to Beaver.

What's worse is when they come to your house without calling and you have to tell them to go awy in person. Zach does that to me all the time. One time I was watching Leave it to Beaver(one of my favorite episodes too) and I hear a knock on my bedroom door, so I open it and there he is. I nicely told him that I couldn't hang out and he said "Okay" and just stood there. I then said "bye" and walked back in to my room. And he stayed at my house for 2 hours waiting for me to come out. My friend Brittany says that's perverted and weird and that I should lock my doors and windows!

My favorites are "Farwell Penny", "Beaver Autobiography", Don Juan Beaver", "Beaver sees America", and a few more but I can't remember the names. The Episode was "Beaver sees America".

I don't like the episodes "My Brother's Girl", "Beaver Won't Eat", or "The Poor Loser". Anyway, I missed half of "Don Juan Beaver". How does it end and what happens?

Beaver makes a date with 2 girls and he wants to get rid of one so he gets advice from Eddie and he acts like a jerk to her. She then finds out that Beaver was acting like this so she'd dump him and he could go out with the other girl. But Ward and June tell him to keep the date with the first girl and break it off with the other. As soon as he breaks it off with the second girl, he calls the first girl and finds out she's going with Whitey.

So who does Beaver end up going with? Melinda (that's the southern girl, the one he wanted to go with)?

He doesn't go with anyone, he stays home and watches television.

Well, first of all, my friends no of my phone-loathing and I screen my calls...secondly...I couldn't imagine watching a show that much. I'd get bored.

I hate getting phone calls from anyone. I'd rather sleep or stare out the window.

My dad always calls when I'm watching SNL...ugh...he's so annoying on the phone, and ignorant...then he comes yesterday while I'm trying to watch the season finale (Jimmy's last show :crying: ) because my sister wasn't talking to him right on the phone...and it was about 12am. And I hate the phone anyway. I never call anyone...and I don't have close enough friends for them to call me. So I guess it's all good, cept my dad ohno:

No one bothers me when I'm watching SNL and lives.
