I was visiting relatives when I discovered that someone I used to love spending time with now watches TruTV pretty much whenever possible unless “Supernatural” is on.
My GF and her sister watch a lot of trash TV.
We used to have BIO on all the time. We renamed it ‘the Murder channel’.
Now, her sister watches **‘Ghost Hunters’ **religiously. Her IQ drops with each viewing.
My dad watches telenovelas every night. This is usually the worst thing on, unless you count my Sunday marathons of** Bar Rescue** and the occasional episode of Cops.
I was watching a little program called interesting enough, Forensic Files, where they waste 20 minutes of your time (not counting commercials) talkin’ about fibers and DNA and fingerprints. You know how they convicted the guy on the episode I watched?
He turned himself in and confessed. :smack:
Double Divas was thankfully cancelled so it’s a tie between Restaurant Stakeout and Mystery Diners. I sometimes wonder about my wife.
I don’t complain, though, as it gives me ammo when she calls WWE fake. Compared to those shows WWE looks like Shakespeare.
My wife has been known to watch “Long Island Medium” and before that she used to sometimes watch “Rescue Mediums”.
I have watched a few episodes of Gail Vaz-Oxlade’s shows “Prince$$” and “Money Moron” while lounging in bed.
My wife watches Judy Judy and Dragon’s Den/Shark Tank (we get both US and Canadian channels). I can feel brain cells dying.
Of course, I’m in no position to kick… I like cheesy sci-fi/horror movies - even on SyFy.
I’m inexplicably still hate watching Under the Dome.
Joel Olsteen.
I have to leave the room.
Virgin Territory. MTV’s latest reality show following the lives of (gasp) actual virgins.
I’m so ashamed.
Criminal Minds. I love it because it’s so stupid. The science is terrible, and it makes my husband crazy, but that’s why I love it. It’s accidental comedy.
I also watch Switched at Birth, because of the Deaf characters and all the signing. I know it’s a teen show, but I still love that there’s a Deaf show.
We don’t watch TV. If the sets on, it’s just BBC TV news by default. Any shows we watch are on DVD, as we don’t subscribe to cable.
When I was growing up in West Texas, the worst show my parents watched was probably Lawrence Welk.
WWE…anything. My husband watches it all the freaking time.
I feel likewise about Ralph Sexton, Jr., a TV preacher from Asheville, NC. He used to be on WLOS, but has recently moved to FOX Carolina. His messages are recorded at 8 on Sunday mornings, and every time my mother puts one of them on, I have to leave the room.
My trashiest viewing is a tie between Hoarders and Supersize vs Superskinny.
My son watches something about a man who travels the US and seems to nothing but eat. I have no idea of the name but it does seem to be a competition (with himself?) to eat more than a human being ought.
My husband surfs thru all kinds of crap TV - but one of the worst has to be Parking Wars. Seriously? A reality show following meter maids or showing idiots trying to get their cars out of impound??
He also loves the various tattoo shows - whether it’s people getting new tats or covering up old ones. I’m usually in the next room on line, but I hear enough of these to feel like it’s the same show over and over.
But then I used to be heavily into HGTV porn, altho now I can’t stand that channel at all.
I’m sure my wife would point to my (very occasional) watching of Monday Night Raw, but I have to put all her interchangable HGTV/Lifetime shows about selling a house or flipping a house or keeping a house. I consider them all one big program.
My kid likes to watch the sitcoms on the Disney channel. What do I win?
Oh, wait… in this thread, we’re all losers.
My dad used to get so frustrated with me for watching Rawhide and The Rifleman, but looking back they weren’t so bad. So I try and cut my kid some slack too when she’s got junk on, but Say Yes to the Dress, The Kardashians and The Bachelorette are really pushing it.
My husband likes Nascar. Cars going around in circles for hours and hours.
He also like fishing shows.
Seriously, is it any wonder I’m bored out of my mind?
