In the past guilty pleasures included:

Sledgehammer
Night Court
Baywatch
How do you come up with your Office critiques then?

Past: Grey's Anatomy, quit watching after they started incorporating ghosts into the plot.

Present: Glee - Rachel and Quinn drew me in, but I actually enjoy the show. Teen Mom - Girl I talked to watched this, and I got hooked.

Actually someone else had interrupted hr first, so she was already standing up taking a picture with someone else, so I asked her if I could get a picture too. I took maybe 15 seconds of her time. Had she not already been taking a picture with someone I wasn't going to bug her.

Watch it on delay...it is the only American show I watch, but considering it is 21 minutes out of a 24/7 week it doesn't account for much - our tv is typically on CNBC, FoxNews, BBC, Sky, Animal Planet or one of our crappy HBO channels (where Avatar is now the starring film, and most others are from the 90's or even 80's).

Plus, given how terrible it has become I don't have plans to watch it next fall. Maybe if Greg Daniels starts writing again. I'd love to catch the new Futurama shows, but it will be a year before we get it.

Yeah, I really don't see how true blood is a guilty pleasure. The show is very popular, and to me it seems like more guys are into it than the ladies are.

I think they are going to make a movie too, but I am with you. The show has run its course. Out of all HBO shows, I think I am most excited for Curb.

lol, I saw parts of that show. Are those encounters real, or they reenacted? It's hard to believe something happens every time they try to tow a car lol.

I have no idea. My girlfriend watches that shit and I'll pop my head over the laptop screen every once in awhile to watch. I don't really watch much TV (Browns games mostly) but she's fixated on those friggin reality shows. If it has something to do with "brides", "Judge <insert judge of the week>" or "Jersey" in it, it will probably be on our screen at some time.

I can tell you when I repo'd those incidents were very isolated.

Im looking forward to Trueblood the most I think, as well as season 2 of How to Make it in America. Curb is awesome, but the fact it is a comedy makes it so that each episode is kind of separate, so less gripping in the long run.
