I watch way too much tv. Not that I consider this a bad thing, but sometimes I wonder. With the advent of Tivo, DVR, and Itunes, you can watch everything, even living overseas. I wasn't always a tv watcher. As child my parents limited how much tv my brother and I were allowed to watch. Perhaps I am now overcompensating. I had my shows growing up like The Wonder Years and 90210 (go ahead mock me), but it was definitely more a pick and choose evironment. You couldn't watch everything because shows conflicted. Now you can watch one, tape one, and download whatever one you missed. I have found that this has made me less discriminating than I was in the past. Currently, I watch Heroes, House, Psych, Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, Smallville, CSI, CSI: NY, Scrubs, One Tree Hill, Bones, Avatar, Veronica Mars, Wildfire, Friday Night Lights, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, and Gilmore Girls. However, I will also go on record saying there is an awful lot of good television to watch these days. The variety in of itself is mindblowing. Avatar is a kids' show, but I will happily admit I think you should watch it, because it is so much more than a kids' show. Give it a shot. So it's a cartoon. I didn't even watch cartoons growing up. Moving on...Take Bones, for example. I do watch procedurals, but Bones is so much more. The show makes you laugh every episode. The banter between the characters is quick and witty. There is sexual tension between the leads and the supporting cast is outstanding. They took Kathy Reichs's idea/life and made it into one of my own must-sees. Another of which is Friday Night Lights. FNL is gripping. There is a raw feel to the show and the actors do a great job delivering dialogue that rings true. The Taylor family cares about one another and you can tell, and not in the Cosby  way. When they disagree, they mean it. It is too bad the show  was marketed as a football show, because it is so much more than that. A cartoon, a procedural, and a family drama illustrate the randomness of tv. If I were in the States, I would probably add in the Amazing Race or Dancing with the Stars for the reality show element. Both are addictive, guilty pleasures. I am addicted to television. Thank goodness there actually is something on tv these days.
