What TV shows do you watch that other people would probably consider "crap" or "lame" ? Or that you yourself have said is shite, but you just can't help watching it anyway?

Well, in the past I have been known to watch a bit of Australian Idol and Big Brother...but I did actually get sick of themin the end. ...Oh, here's one...last week when I was off sick I started watching 'Average Joe' - crappy US reality show where an attractive woman goes out on dates with a selecton of men...there were two groups: The 'Joes' (average looking guys) and a bunch of male models! I got sucked right in (only because I developed the fasted crush ever on one of the Joes )!!

Aah yes, the reality shows I kind of watch Idol, even though last year it was sooooo boring! I confess to watching Home & Away, despite what people think of the "ak-ting" And I've recently gotten into Smallville... that Lex Luthor is one intriguing character...

I was a Dawson's Creek fan, but I missed out on watching the third series for some obscure reason. (Was it even shown here?)

Heh yeah, too dramatic, that's about right. Then again a lot of shows I watch can be like that, LOL... I was a Dawson's Creek fan, but I missed out on watching the third series for some obscure reason. (Was it even shown here?) Knowing our TV stations, probably not LOL! So many of my friends used to watch that show, but I just never got into it, really. Maybe the characters annoyed me, I dunno

I used to love Dawson's Creek!! I was so inlove with Pacey at one point. How traigc is that??
My TV show shame is that I love shows about antiques, like the antiques roadshow, bargain hunt and cash in the attic. Do you have those shows over your way?

I loved the episode wiht her 'alternative' cheer leading squad. And I loved her cute bf at one stage, Henry (played by Michael Pitt!) Dude, Mr Tweed is addicted to those shows, especially Bargain Hunt. His new one in addition to these, is Property Ladder. I've become sucked into watching them as well.

"look at this bobby dazzler!" *dazzles girlies with her perma-tan* "perma-tan" He grows on you though, that bloke. I always feel disappointned when he's not on, and the other fella in the hat is on instead. She was like an old soul in a young person. Did you get to see the last season?
