good television is back.

K.  I have been "watching" allot of tv lately.  But only sort of.  its a monster.  a 55 inch screen, so - I always have it on.  But usually Im at my computer.  I let tivo and gina make most of the programming decisions in the house.  very few things will actually be so bad that I need to put headphones on.  Amonst those things are:

• AMERICAN IDOL
• Dancing with the stars

Those are really the only shows that outwardly annoy the shit out of me.  Then, there are shows on which suck, but arent so bad that they make me want to leave the house.  I can usually still concentrate on what I am working on, and only if I turn around am I offended.

• brat camp
• that 70's show
• news
• unreal life
• any reality tv show, really.

And then, there is the sector of programming which I like to have on while Im working

• Stargate Atlantis
• Discoveries! this week
• The best week ever (this one will actually make me chuckle.

And finally...... Stuff that I will actually watch.  Either in full or partial. 

• Extreme Home Makeover (because they are sooooo nice to them people) (45 minutes)
• Justice League Unlimited (27 minutes)
• The Batman (24 minutes)
• King of Queens (something about an overweight funny guy and a hot chick) (26 minutes)
• Entourage (28 minutes)
• Robot Chicken (13 minutes)
• StargateSG1 (52 minutes)

When compared with the average american's weekly viewing habit of 4 hours per day! (according to tvturnoff.org - a very unbiased site) .... my 3 hours and 35 minutes per week is awesome.  Now if I could just stop rotting my brain with comic books.  dammit.  ever man has a vice.

If I count bedtime in (gina has to have the tv on to fall asleep) I tag 30 minutes on per day..... but my eyes are closed.
