This semester I’ve started watching Dawson’s Creek, much to my own chagrin. Why, you ask? Well it’s simple. One of my favorite actors, Sebastian Spence, is in it for the beginning of the season. Lame reason to watch a show. Especially one that is so … well it’s like Beverly Hills 90210 only different… and the really CRAPPY thing about it is that I’ll get sucked into the little petty plots and I won’t be able to stop watching. Just like Beverly Hills 90210. sigh
I watch COPS, “World’s Scariest…” and “World’s Stupidest…” in the hopes of seeing my old high school classmates.
BAAHAHAHAHA!
My wife and I totally enjoy Worlds Best Police Chase Video’s because the narrator absolutely kicks ass.
We also watch Son of the Beach precisely because it is so stupid. Sometimes dumb humor is the best humor. Too bad it’s now on winter hiatus.
I started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer because a girl I liked (but had nothing in common with) watched it, and I needed something to talk to her about. I haven’t seen the girl in two years, but I’m so into Buffy now I bought an XBox just to play the BtVS game. Maybe I should send her the bill…
I sometimes catch “Gilmore Girls” bcause I like the younger one…
BTW, I got into listening to country music because of a girl…women can be so inspiring sometimes…
I used to watch the daytime soap “Passions” because it used to have a midget who always referred to himself in the third person. That was cool.
Well, I liked Jackass. I think most can agree that all possible reasons for watching it are stupid.
I also watch That 70s Show sometimes, purely for the absolute glow that Mila Kunis gives off.
Earlier this year, I was watching early A-Team reruns. Why? Because Melinda Culea was so cute back then.
I also used to watch the Little Mermaid Saturday morning cartoon, simply because Jodi Benson sings so purty.
You mean John Bunnel? I like those lame puns he throws out after every perp gets arrested:
“This guy thought he could get away in a stolen vegetable truck, but now he’ll have plenty of time to toss salads, in jail!”
Like Iciclefuzz, I started watching Passions because the whole premise of a soap opera with a witch and a talking doll which was really just a midget in stupid clothing really seems incredibly fucking funny to me. Timmy’s dead now (in more ways than once) and the show’s not all that funny, but I still watch it because of “Cracked Connie,” Timmy’s evil replacement. She’s not as short, but she’s got a huge scar across her face held together by huge stapples.
That, and I’m still trying to figure out whether this show takes itself seriously or not. Everytime they go a good lapse without Tabbitha and “The Evil,” it starts getting too much like a real soap and it worries me.
I sometimes watch the TEN late news just cause of the newsreader.
I’ve been watching DragonballZ lately. Completely lame storyline, bad animation, and nothing happens in each half hour show. I swear, if I was writing it, their half hour of “action” would be over in 7 minutes. These guys are in a fight, and stop to chit-chat, or pose, or “power up”, sheesh! Can you waste MORE time? On top of it, they practically tell you everything that happens in the show during the intro. It is one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen.
I’m addicted, it’s a sickness, and I really, really need help.
Hamtaro. I… just… can’t… stop… watching!
I’m not even sure what’s going on. I’m pretty sure it’s about Hamsters (“Hams”) who have “Big Adventures”, but that’s about it. Yet I faithfully tune in (when I can–damn Cartoon Network keeps shifting the time around) to try and figure it out… every chance I get.
Also, regarding the aforementioned Son of the Beach–one o my most favorite shows ever, I’ve read that FX has decided to not renew it because it doesn’t fit in with the new image they’re trying to portray (I’ll try and find the link). So, it appears to be cancelled for good, especially considering
that in the final episode this season, they all die: blown up by a rocket fired by Captain Antenille. Well, except for B.J., who ran off with the father of her baby–Jon Lovitz.
About the sad, sad fate of Son of the Beach:
I also watch Days of Our Lives. Don’t tell anyone.
I love Hamtaro! I always do the dance with the end credits. My son loves it when Hamtaro “shakes his booty” (Dominic’s words, not mine)
I used to watch “Charmed” just to ogle the pretty girls. It had Shannon Doherty, Alyssa Milano, and…the other one. An unbeatable combination…
Whatever happened to Shannon Doherty?
Hamtaro is the devil.
Probably not a stupid reason, but here goes.
Last season I got fed up with “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” after two years and quit watching it. Stopped cold and didn’t miss it - that’s how little I have come to care about the characters on it.
However, my wife was disappointed, as she saw watching that as one of the things we did together. And some friends of ours invited us over to watch it this season.
So this season I’m watching it again, solely to make the wife happy and socialize with the friends. I still don’t give a fig about any of the characters on it, still feel the show is lacking a lot, and, being the only person on earth who is sick to death of Spike, endure the fan-fiction-ification of the show. But I watch it.
