Guilty pleasures in television?
 
Recently I've been hooked on two soap operas that air on my local television channel.

It's not like I actually like it or try my best to tune in on it, I just watch it because it's so incredibly corny that it's funny.
I swear that's the reason why!

Both my mom and I watch it and we think it's hysterical. It's completely unrealistic, too, I mean these people go to drastic measures for simple day-to-day things.

It's called Wicked Wicked Games, that's the one we watch more, and the other one is called Watch Over Me. Wicked Wicked Games is really weird, there's this crazy old blonde chick who talks to herself when she's on the computer and she over-acts and stuff, and then these younger girls who can't act for their lives. It's pretty funny though. Even though it's not supposed to be. xD

I like watching Watch Over Me because my mom has the funniest reactions to it--she talks to the TV sometimes, and every time she does she leaves me laughing. There's this crazy evil guy on the show and every time he kills someone or something, she gasps loudly or says, "Ugh, he's such a jerk!" xD I dunno, it makes me laugh.

Are there any shows you secretly watch that you don't want anyone else to know about (even though you're going to release it to the public right now)?

Everything on Nickelodeon. xD Oh, and a few of those cartoons like Dora and Blues Clues. :oops:

Cheaters. Even though it was exposed as being fake, Joey's reactions still make me laugh. I loved the episode where he got stabbed.

Oh and Angela Anaconda too :oops:

Right now it would be "What Not to Wear"
I know just about everything I wear would be deemed wrong and that I am un stylish to them.

Some of the stuff they make you get rid of is just well, not right. But mostly i agree.

  • Hmm...
    America's Next Top Model. :l

I love watching those silly makeover shows. The people there are so obnoxious. I also watch cartoons a lot. Fairly Oddparents and Billy & Mandy are probably my favorites. :]

Bunny Slippers 03-13-2007 03:19 AM

Shows like American Idol and America's Next Top Model...I'm not even sure why I watch them, I just do. :lol:

Emrysa 10-14-2007 11:43 AM

I guess my guilty pleasure on T.V. would be Drawn Together. That show is so horrible. Like every time that nasty B&W chick takes a chunk out of her leg I'm like omg why am I watching this. But I love Capitan Hero and Ling Ling. :D

JuliaV 10-14-2007 04:21 PM

lol I really love Oprah. XD

Anahita 10-14-2007 08:28 PM

2 guilty pleasures:

- Dr. Phill
- Girls Next Door

I've been known to watch them and I'm reallly not proud of myself for that.

I dont believe in watching an embaressing show that I dont want anyone to know about.
I watch anything thats on, whether its a Teletoon Kiddie Cartoon, like Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, A Reality Game show like So You think You can Dance, a documentary show like Vanity Insanity, a Comedy like Friends or Family Guy, anime, or something from treehouse! I watch it all. I find every TV show to be amusing in some form of way. :3
Some of the best shows Ive seen were the ones on treehosue. O.O"
Like Toy Castle; cutest show EVER. D<
So I geuss my "guilty Television Pleasure" is watching Treehouse and Early morning Teletoon? :3
What? I enjoy all those old shows.
You'd be surprised at how many of the shows you think were canceled a long time ago still air during early mornings. 8D

I love this little kid's show named Yo Gabba Gabba!. It is excellent.

I also adore watching the Spanish station. It makes me crack up every time. xD

I am all over that show. I am uber obsessed with it in fact. I'm even watching cycle four now :D

My absolute guilty pleasure? Pokemon. Wow, that sounds lamer still than it did in my head. :oops: But yeah, I love it. Mainly for Team Rocket though. Rocketshippy = <3

promised_forever 10-15-2007 07:35 PM

Pretty much any reality television

Plus Law and Order: SVU and Nip/Tuck

Oh and Dawson's Creek

Guilty pleasure?

Well...

Winx Club, on 4Kids.

I feel so dirty for liking that piece of crap!

dora the explorer and blues clues and so cheesy and childish that they actually make me and my 21 year old sister laugh out loud

like when dora stops for a response for the kid to shout out something
me and my sister just look at eachother then burst out laughing
a kid wouldn't notice stuff like that

Wee Little Pixi 10-16-2007 05:43 PM

I love New York.

Seriously, can't stand her, and I should hate her show, but I can't not watch.

It's like a masochistic pleasure, more than it's a guilty pleasure.

I agree that it's crap. Now that I think of it,was I on an acid trip when I watched it? W.I.T.C.H. could own those anorexic fairies any day!
You know a show is bad when it makes you wish that its antagonists took care of the hero(ine) once and for all. The Trix witches even made it once, but it was only for a short time, when Bloom reawakened her powers in the cheesiest way possible.

  • My guilty pleasure is watching Playboy's The Girls Next Door :) Bridget, Holly, and Kendra are so fun to watch, and especially funny as well. The third season finished up not too long ago and I have Season 1 and 2 on DVD so I can't wait till Season 3 comes out. They're soooo pretty >< and I've been watching my DVDs of their series for the past two days.

    My other guilty pleasure, though I can't do much about it since it's not airing at the moment, is The Closer. Even though I had a topic on it some long time ago, not a lot of people posted in it, but I just like to watch it when it comes on. Season 3 of that just finished as well, probably earlier than when GND finished up. Kyra Sedgwick is hella funny.

    Lastly, watching POKEMON when I can. It's up at 6:30AM on Cartoon Network my time so I either do have a chance to watch it or I don't, depends on when I wake up. It's for little kids and even though I'm 18 I still like it :P So there.
