Have fun at Southfork! lol

I never ever EVER thought I'd be interested in "The OC," but I watched an all-day marathon on FX one Saturday, and I just loved it.

Friends -- I always wrote it off as my least favorite show ever, now its slowly on the rise, and I like it.

peter may · 05-31-2004, 11:42 AM

oh yeah you gotta love THE OC

EmoJoe · 05-31-2004, 12:15 PM

This is a surprise for everyone...

Full House! Yes, Full House! One day my cousin was watching and I didnt really care about it, I just always thought of it "The show my cousin watched", then, I saw the marathon for it on Nick@Nite and I fell in love with it!

Dean Winchester · 05-31-2004, 02:27 PM

this is gonna come as a shock to everybody, but the first time I heard about Buffy The Vampire Slayer, I thought "what a dumb concept" and also thought about the bad Luke Perry movie, and then I accidentally came across an episode on WB and found myself interested in it, and by the third episode I saw, I was already addicted and it slowly became my favorite tv series of all time.

First time I heard about Sex And The City, I thought it sounded trashy, and then I found myself catching bits and pieces of it on HBO from time to time, and after a month or two, began to realize that I actually really liked that show, and it became a Sunday night ritual until the end.

Suddenly Susan... hated it on NBC, but yet love it on Lifetime, would certainly purchase the first 3 seasons on DVD

I remember Taxi used to come on before the news when I was a kid and my parents usually had it on.... and I remember not caring for it much... but years later, I caught the marathon on N@N when it premiered in late 94 and found myself losing sleep that week because I wanted to watch as many episodes as I could, lol

Friends
The Cosby Show

David · 05-31-2004, 03:24 PM

Not a sitcom but... American Idol. Looked like a dumb show, and look what happened to me now

and Cosby Show. I had a thing against it, because it screwed up the Nick At Nite schedule. It's a good show though

Days of Our Lives was a show I never thought I'd be interested in. Before watching it I bashed all soaps and said they were stupid and completely unrealistic, yet I find myself watching DOOL every day. Sure it's campy, but it's entertaining and it's one of my favorite shows now.
