You know you have them. The ones you don't tell your friends about for fear of being drawn and quartered.

I can't help loving Gossip Girl. I love it. The bitchiness, the fashion, the impossible good looks.

Amazing Race of course, though that's easily justifiable. Less so was "Beauty and the Geek" a while ago. And the "Funniest Home Videos".

i sometimes watch "america's next top model".

i enjoy how clueless the girls are.

I occasionally watch those "OMG I refused birth control and have a zillion kids" shows on TLC. Forgive me.

every now and then ill sit through a maury povitch "which of this dozen men is my baby's daddy" shows.

is maury still on the air?

Is there a good television show that ISN'T a guilty pleasure? :) I never have apologize for my music choices, but I seem to do nothing but squirm and explain the tv shows I watch.

At the moment, I'm hooked on Stargate Atlantis, which sucks shit. I mean, it's got the stupidest writing of any scifi show I've seen in I don't know how long. But the life-sucking, space-vampire aliens look cool, and I tune in to stare at them and wish they had better scripts to speak. And if the episode doesn't feature them, I tune out again. And I refuse to apologize for that. This time. To the likes of y'all.

I admit to liking "Desperate Housewives" more than I pretend to. It really is kinda addictive.

Ditto for "Grey's Anatomy," a.k.a. "Impossibly Pretty Doctors Cure Impossibly Rare Illnesses and then Have Lots of Impossibly Ubiquitous Sex." :p

Oh, please, Poli, that's hardly something to feel guilty about. Let's see aside from Stargate Atlantis, I've spent years paying for cable so I could watch:

Make Me A Supermodel
every season of Project Runway
What Not To Wear
Top Chef

Just about everything on Adult Swim

Japanese lunacy such as:
Iron Chef (the Japanese original - "Fukui-san!")
MXC: Most Extreme Elimination Challenge
Sailor Moon
Inuyasha

Bacony Canadian crap such as:
Blood Ties
Forever Knight
Lexx

And I even have a short list of SciFi channel original movies that I actually like and have voluntarily watched more than once.

What he said. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a rock to hide under after admitting that. And Stargate SG-1.

Japanese Iron Chef is so not a guilty pleasure. It is the greatest thing ever. I cannot watch the host bite into that pepper in the opening sequence without laughing my ass off.

MXC: Most Extreme Elimination Challenge
Again, i must say, you ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love these shows too! Especially What Not To Wear! But only with Trinny and Susannah.

Kim Possible.

Come Outside with Aunty Mabel

Come Outside with Aunty Mabel

Lol I remember her.

i love cop chase shows, but i don't tell too many people that.

i also like to watch the occasional bit of big brother, just to see how shit and pointless it really is

I secretly love gilmore girls.

... And Stargate SG-1.

SG-1 is fine. Now, Stargate Atlantis is just pubescent.

That said, I must confess I am a fan of Reaper, Corner Gas, and Avatar: the last air bender... I do wonder if my name is on a list somewhere.

It pains me...but I still watch pokemon....*hides*

Pokemon used to be the shit. There is no shame in wishing it still was.

SG-1 started going downhill when Jack left. And what the hell was with that series finally? Sucked balls.

And Avatar is pretty awesome. Nothing wrong with watching that.

the batman cartoon
Transformers
Anime (have to hide that i like it-parents think i'm a sadcase)

Watching Golden Girls.:(

I secretly love gilmore girls.

Oh I love that show too! Mainly because it's so sweet and saccharin that it makes my teeth hurt. It's like Seventh Heaven without the proselytising.

I was deprived as a child. My mum wouldn't let me watch all the skanky teen dramas so now I'm an adult, they're pretty much all I watch.

Anime (have to hide that i like it-parents think i'm a sadcase)

That depends. Which animes do you like?
If the list includes Death Note, Bleach, or currently DBZ, yes you are. But if you used to like DBZ when you were younger and more ignorant, it's forgivable.

*InuYasha (I ordered an InuYasha skin for my sidekick, so this one's not too big of a secret)
*Little House on the Prarie
*Kim Possible
*The Bachelor (We should make an LDS version! Lol! That would be funny!)

I don't feel guilty about watching SG1 or Atlantis...should I? ...*hides the dvds*

I love Beauty and the Geek :$ And Britains Got Talent. And stupid documentaries like "The Worlds Fattest Man" and "The Girl with 18 Legs"...

Did you see the one where the girl was born in India with a paracite twin, and they thought she was the Goddess with 8 arms and legs?

Creepy ...

SG1, no. Atlantis, yes.

IT'S FREAKING DRAGON BALL Z FOR GIRLS! (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=191)

IT'S FREAKING DRAGON BALL Z FOR GIRLS! (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=191)

Good thing I'm a girl then, eh?

InuYasha is a whole heck of a lot cuter than the dragon ball Z guys.

Creepy ...
Yeah :P I think I've seen most of them by now...

SG1, no. Atlantis, yes.
Oh, Ok :( *feels guilty* *makes herself feel better by watching some Atlantis*...*feels even more guilty*

*Looks around furtively to make sure no one's looking.* I've recently discovered Mobile Home Disasters on CMTv. *Hangs head in shame.*

InuYasha is a whole heck of a lot cuter than the dragon ball Z guys.

But DBZ sucks. Therefore, it's sucky show for girls.

RhynoD, I fail to see your reasoning.

Ok, Keeping up with the Kardashians. I love that show and if I ever meet Bruce Jenner I will shake his hand. Oh, The Hills as well, I would not tell most people that I watched either of those shows.

Bill O'Reilly and the All Spin Zone.

I used to watch Gilmore Girls.
And I still watch half the Cartoons on Family Channel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Channel_(Canada)), Teletoon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletoon_(Canadian_TV_channel))and YTV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YTV_(TV_channel)).

The Simpsons, King of the Hill, and Reaper are three of my favorite shows. :D

Ghost in the shell, Gilgamesh, I occasionally take a peak at naruto (Though not so much).

Also anything featuring Vampires is good (And that happens a lot.)

I like H2O:Just Add Water. It is an Australian show about girls who turn into Mermaids whenever they touch water.

Weird, yet strangely interesting...

You're not the only one. At one point or another, we all fail to see Rhyno's reasoning. His mind works in twisted and mysterious ways. You have been thus warned.:eek:

My friends would be ashamed of me if I didn't watch TV. So I don't. I tell them about it, and I don't care, just like I don't care if this small, prissy girl that hates me asks if I have an iPod, I say no, and she says i'm crazy, and I don't care if my entire class is discussing the fucking LOSERS on American Idol that call themselves able to sing. GOD!

Were you homeschooled?

I'm the only person I know that likes Andromeda (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qiwMjxYdhE), featuring Hercules himself :)

hmm... no guilt in my television viewing.

tho some might consider Phineas and Ferb (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_and_Ferb) a guilty pleasure.

It’s a 104 days of Summer Vacation,
And school comes along just to end it.
So the annual problem for our generation,
Is finding a good way to spend it.

Like maybe …
Building a rocket,
or fighting a mummy,
or climbing up the Eiffel Tower.

Discovering something that doesn’t exist,
or giving a monkey a shower.
Surfing tidal waves,
Creating nanobots,
Or locating Frankenstein’s brain. (Phineas – “It’s over here!”)

Finding a dodo bird,
Painting a continent,
Or driving our sister insane. (Candace – “Phineas!”)

As you can see,
There’s a whole lot of stuff to do before school starts this Fall. (Phineas - “Come on Perry!”)

So stick with us,
Cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all!

So stick with us,
Cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all!

Candace – “Mom! Phineas and Ferb are making a title sequence!”

I was laughing my ass off during last week's episode.

The OP asks if you have any guilty television pleasures, and you answer, essentially, that you have neither television pleasures nor guilt about not having them, but somehow this connects to how annoyed you are with your classmates' opinions about which you supposedly don't care, despite the fact that you care enough to use large bolded red type.

So are you making quantum leaps out of the OP topic into self-contradictory apoplexy unintentionally, or deliberately and for humorous purposes?

Put another way: Why are you acting like Basil Fawlty?

Put another way: ¿Que?

see? now if you had just asked all that in the first place... ;) :D

If TRI watched tv, he'd have cultural literacy, and TFA wouldn't have had to use all those words, because TRI would have gotten the reference. This is why people who don't watch tv are a pain. ;)

Iron Chef America

I don't watch too much telly these days, but back when I did... Yeah, Gilmore Girls!

And that Spanish show, Los Serrano.

From Gs to Gents.

Iron Chef America

Gaaaaaaaaagh!:eek:

Moonlight ... XD

Can't really think of any now, though I'll be adding "The Clone Wars" when it starts playing. And yes, its a show as well as a movie.

OMAD!

1 + 1 son 7!! Quién me lo iba a decir! Que era tan fácil ser feliz!!!

I love Los Serrano. I do!

I don't have a television. Haven't had one for almost twenty years.

So, whenever I visit friends I can't peel my eyes away from whatever is on, even kids' shows. And I feel guilty about it.

Last thing I saw was Sex in the City. Wasn't bad.

Mine is 'Moment of Truth'

That show is such a train wreck... but I can't keep from watching it...

erk... got hooked on 'I survived a Japanese Game Show'

and I looooove 'Fear Itself'

Anime xP

Mine is 'Moment of Truth'

That show is such a train wreck... but I can't keep from watching it...

i watched that once. it was too horrifying. i wont watch it again.

the things people will do to themselves and their families just to get on tv and (maybe) win a bit of money!
