People that know me in real life know that I am a television whore. I watch just about everything and I can usually pick the new shows that will be canceled after watching 1 episode.
Luckily my kids don’t enjoy watching t.v. at all so I don’t worry about them picking up my terrible habit. Also, I watch most, if not all, of my shows once they are in bed at night. Here are some of my basic “rules” for shows:
- I like hour long shows. 30 minute show which are really just 24 minutes without commercials ares not long enough to get invested in the story line. I do have some exceptions.
- I like drama over comedy.
- Once I am 2 or more season in, I have to keep watching until the end of the series. I have invested too much time to quit.
- I HATE live T.V. I always DVR my shows and then fast forward through the commercials. Again, I have some exceptions like The Super Bowl, but not much else.
Here are the premiere dates for the majority of the shows that I will be watching the next couple of months. I have labeled them with my must watch shows (DVR) and my if I have time shows (TBD). It looks like a lot but really it is less than 4 hours a day before I fast forward the commercials. I bet a lot of you watch that much television, movies and Netflix. (And if you don’t – please don’t judge me. I work 40 hours a week, keep my house clean while raising 4 kids, do about 14 loads of laundry a week, and read at least 1 book a week.)
