American Idol- I loathe reality shows and what they've done to TV, but I started watching American Idol a couple of years ago and I've been obsessed since. It was Carrie Underwood who got me interested. She's one of my favorite country singers. She probably wouldn't have a career right now if it wasn't for this show.

SpongeBob SquarePants- There is absolutely no reason for a 28-year-old childless woman to be watching this show, but I just love the little yellow guy. I was a freshman in college when this show came out and everybody was watching it. I don't actively seek it out, but sometimes if I'm just channel-surfing and I come across an episode, I'll watch.

Everything I watch? lol

I had an older co-worker mention Hogan's Heroes once and he was shocked I'd heard of the show, let alone own all the episodes. So I guess that's one.

Old episodes of Match Game and Family Feud. It's funny to see if I can answer the 1970s questions with a 2009 brain.

Incredible Hulk. I think I see a whole other dimension of it that the writers probably never intended. I think deep.

Automan. It's cheesy. Cheesy and from the 80s. But it's freakin hilarious in its badness. And ahead of its time with all the computer stuff and special effects. I was shocked when I heard the word Modem used in a show from 1983.

Powerpuff Girls. Another show that an almost 30 year-old shouldn't be watching. But I see a lot of things in episodes that I swear kids wouldn't get.

The Brady Bunch-yeah its hokey but entertaining, and I always though Greg Brady was cool.

The Partridge Family-same as above and David Cassidy is pretty cool too. I have to admit he is not the greatest singer, and at times when started singing I had to turn down the volume.

I used to watch Automan when it originally aired, I was sad when it got canceled.

'Punky Brewster'- though I know I wasn't the only male my age that watched it, we just didn't ever talk about it.

'Smurfs'- I'm watching reruns with my daughter(and I secretly still enjoy it)

Cheesy celebrity reality shows- The Two Coreys, Surreal Life, Celebrity Fit Club, I even watched that Former Teen Idol one hosted by Scott Baio

Married With Children- Not the ideal family or role models, but I just love Al Bundy and his comedic timing.

The Soup - As much as I don't like reality TV, I like how Joel Mchale takes us through the most absurd of these.

David Cassidy is a very under-rated singer.
Brady Bunch is a Great/FUN show.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Don't judge. I don't take it seriously at all I just...I can't help it. Khloe is such a bitch, I love it.

And those stupid shows like Trading Spouses, What Not to Wear, and America's Next Top Model. God. So horrible. I can't help it.

Pitooey · 05-18-2009, 11:38 PM

I also like Trading spouses, Trading Moms etc.

Home hunters and Home hunters International I love picking out the houses for them.

For me it's a Canadian show called 'Trailer Park Boys' and watching episodes of 'You Can't Do That On Television' on YouTube.

Yeah...it needed more than 13 episodes. At least some kind of closure...and a computer foe for Auto.

Did they ever find out which dad was actually hers? I used to watch it when it was first on.
