I must admit we love tv in our house. It proboply isnt the best hobby or way to spend our time, but it's something we pay for anyways so we watch lots of shows. My husband and I, like to watch hoarders, pawn stars, hells kitchen, no ordinary family, criminal minds, heroes, vampire diaries, nakita, outsourced, raising hope and two and half men...oh and family guy. These shows are on different night and usally differnt times of the year.
I like to watch shows that he wont watch so I watch these ones by myself usally online. They are Gossip girl, life unexpected, one tree hill, hell cats, 90210, sister wives, glee, teen mom, 16 and pregnant, make it or break it, secret life of the american teenager.
I am sure there are shows I am missing that we watch, but I think all the main ones are in there. With them all written out it looks like alot, but it really dosnt seem like all that much, usally only a couple hours a night, and then I watch a couple hours a day on the computer.
What are some of your favorite tv shhows? How much tv do you watch?

My tv watching habits really depend on how I feel and what the weather is like as well. If I am feeling up to things I like to be active but it all depends on how much pain I am in that day. With having a back injury I sometimes watch alot of tv. I have a whole list of shows that I like to watch. And shows that I have to watch as well. Thank god for PVR's. My list includes:
1. One Tree Hill
2. Hellcats
3. Monday Night Raw
4. House
5. Canadas Worst Driver
6. Americas Worst Driver
7. Dancing With the Stars
8. The BIggest Loser
9. Survivor
10. Hell's Kitchen
11. Gray's Anatomy
12. Law & Order
13. Law & Order SVU
14. Friday Night Smackdown
15. Gene Simmons Family Jewels
16. Big Brother
17. Deadliest Catch
18. Ice Road Truckers
19. Trading Spouses: Meet You New Mommy
20. Wife Sway
21. Cooking shows, Discovery Channel, TLC and lots of others.
These are just ones that I can think of off the top of my head.

I watch ALOT of those shows you watch...and I didnt have deadliest catch on my list but love that show! I want a PVR soo bad, so I dont have to watch my shows I miss on the computer and can watch them whenever I have time on my tv...that would be amazing. Yep a PVR is on my list of things I need to get!

PVR's are so amazing. As soon as we got one. I have not watched a show with commericals. I can not stand them. You know you get so into the show and them bam there is a commericial. This way you can fast forward and pause it. Watch it on your own terms. You will truly love them.

My husband and I are not sports fans here at all. Which is really strange since everyone is my family loves watching sports. But in my house they are never on. Altough i love watching them for real, when family or friends are playing, especially wathing my son.

If you like crime drama, I bet you would love criminal minds. I sometimes watch law and order, or CSI...but once I found criminal minds they all seemed not as good. So now I stick with that one and I love it. If you ever get the chance you should check it out.

Watching television is one of the most popular hobbies in the world, and I admit, its one of my hobbies. I used to be slave to television, even had alarms on my phone for to remind me of my favorite shows. It was somehow tamed when I started working, since I get too tired to watch anything on TV and would rather sleep. Now, I usually watch the news and some local show or two. Apart from that, I also love watching Glee, Criminal Minds, Bones, CSI, and Legend of the Seeker. When I go home, it is tradition that my cousin and I watch cartoons until dawn.

What a fun tradition to watch cartoons and night! I use to stay up until at least 1am every night so I could watch my shows, and would plan things around them. But now was youngest gets up usally every 2 hours and then every hour or so as morning gets closer. So just like you I can not stay up that late to watch tv, becuase I need to sleep sometime! But I do try to watch all the shows I miss the next day online.

I get to watch TV at night only, when i get home from work.
While my husband hasn't arrived yet, i would watch soap operas i like and Survivor - Philippines.
When my husband arrives, we watch Biggest Loser-Asia, Amazing Race , Bizarre Foods, America's Funniest Videos.
Both of us likes to watch gag shows or ones that would make us laugh. It's a sure way of bonding and relaxing.

Yes, we also like gag shows. Sometimes me and my husband will watch a comedy act at night. Or when our 8 year old is awake Americas funniest videos, and the worlds funniest animals are some favorite. Laughter is great way to bond and relax.

I have never watched mash, but it's an older show so maybe thats why. I have watched the antique roadshow on occassion, it is so neat and interesting to see the things that are brought in and what they are worth!
I also have watched til debt due us part, it is really good to see how people can change thier financial situation so drastically so quickly.

I always hear about the real housewives, but have never watched them. I must say the more I hear people talking about them the more interested I get in checking them out. I have caught the wendy williams show a couple times and enjoyed it, however it is not something I watch on a regular basis. I use to watch Jon and Kate plus eight, but then stopped watching when it was just Kate plus eight. Not because I dont like Kate or anything, I just had my son and stopped having the extra time to stay up at night.

I am thinking about getting netflix, it seems so convienient. I use to watch greys anotomy and I like it when I get the chance, but I guess I watch too many shows and it just sort of got pushed out of the mix, now its been so long that I am lost when I watch it. I never started watching private practice, but know lots of people who do and they all say it is soo good and they love it.

me and my family also loves watching tv but not all the time since my parents are all in work and me and my siblings are in school the whole day. when we got home we always watch news and other local tv series in our country. but when weekend, we love to watch movies on hbo and star movies. its really fun to watch movies on the weekend because me and my family can have some bonding time.

I agree we love getting together and relaxing and watchnig a good movie. If the kids are up we will watch a kids movie, and when they are in bed we will watch movies that have adult themes. But it is a great opportunity to relax and bond. Movies also make for great conversations.

Hi kayla_7602! I watch television with my 2 daughters and we watch cartoons! But when I am with my husband, we watch news. But, when I was still single, I used to watch Ally McBeal, it's my favorite tv show ever! Cheers!

I know cartoons are always on in my house becuase of my 2 boys. Even if they are not watching the tv it will still be on the cartoon chanels in the background. we dont really watch the news here...maybe becuase it's depressing a little...or maybe becuase we have other shows we watch and usally dont have the tv when the news is on becuase the kids have it...or we are going to bed!
happy mylotting!
