That your family/friends/spouse can't understand why...

My friend says I'm obsessed with TV. I think she's right but I won't admit it to her :) We have absolutely positively no shared interest in TV AT ALL. My mom would rather watch CNN or the Home Shopping Network.

I love FRIENDS, Will & Grace, The Nanny, The Love Boat, Three's Company, Golden Girls, Facts of Life. They just don't "get" it :)

of course my friend likes American Idol and I have no idea why.

:)

Anyone?

I think that one would make my list if I ever see it again :)

I used to faithfullly watch The Rosie O'Donnell show right when it first came on and my ex boyfriend used to get up and LEAVE because he hated it so much. Ahhh, memories....

well once i was talking to my friend about Leave it to beaver and she said how can you like that show but after she watched a episode the next time I asked her if she wanted to watch Leave it to beaver she said ok I love leave it to beaver so I guess thats the only show I ever watched that someone disliked but after a episode she said she liked it so I guess that dont count :)

The only thing that I think my wife can't understand that I watch are classic gameshows.

A couple of my suitemates last year would ask me how I could watch Wings. They thought it was a stupid show. They loved Friends and Full House, which are two shows that you can not get me to watch at gunpoint. Everyone has different tastes.

I really love Cheers and Andy Richter Controls the Universe. They are just two great shows in my opinion.

I must agree old shows are much better than shows nowaday.

Whenever I talk about some of the older shows at work, no one knows what I'm talking about.

Person: Who's Dobie Gillis?

Person: Chico and the Man? Is that the show with Freddie Prinze, Jr.?

Me: No, It's his dad. (I guess at least they associate the Prinze name with Chico and the Man.)

Also, I don't know anybody, except for some of the people here at the messageboards, that watches or has even heard of "Andy Richter Controls The Universe."

As for simply hating the shows I love, my little sister can't stand "Wings" and "Chico and the Man." She spends all her time watching reality shows. (American Idol, The Bachelor etc.)

Yeah, that's how it is with me. I can be talking about some older show and all my friends are looking at me like I just grew horns or something.

I tape friends, I have all the Friends DVDs/VHS, I watch it every Thursday and on TBS, and I have a Friends website... :D

I also love Family Ties and The Golden Girls, and American Dreams. :)

They thought Wings was stupid but they watched Full House?? Now don't get me wrong, I like Full House, but that doesn't make a lot of sense.

I don't see how anyone can think Full House is a great show, period. To each his or her own, I guess :)

My brothers don't know how I can like Barney Miller.
Also I like The Osbournes, but my Dad thinks it's one of the worst shows ever.
