TV and me

[amari_z]

I've been realizing lately that I don't actually like TV that much. Hmm. What I do watch:

Gilmore Girls (but I'm often still at work, so I miss it)
Battlestar Galactica
Simpsons (If I'm home)
Boondocks (if I happen to remember)
Occasional episode of Law & Order, because never bad, but seems to always be on
Daily Show/Colbert Report Because--do I even need to explain?
Occasional documentaries and news shows

Shows I used to watch, but don't really anymore:
Everwood (not sure why--it's probably that I've missed too much of it by being at work and a lot of the teenage angst just annoys me)
Smallville (I liked it in the beginning, but now it just seems very stupid. I stopped watching completely during the second (or third?) season
Stargate SG-1 (used to watch this fairly regularly--but now it just seems boring; I've watched an occasional ep of Atlantis, it's okay, but doesn't grab me)
[Edit--I forgot The West Wing (I used to adore this show, but lost interest around the time Sorkin left--or maybe a little before. I think it's still on.)]

Shows I would watch religiously if evil networks had not canceled them before their time:
Arrested Development (wails)
Dead Like Me (damn you showtime! I would have actually subscribed to your stupid channel)

And if you want to go back in time:
Firefly
Furturama
Pinky and the Brain (where are my dvds, damn you!)

I'm sure I'm missing stuff, but that's all I can think of. (I'm not counting things like X-files that got canceled after self-destructing).

I've watched Supernatural a few times and it's growing on me. Although I do find it continually confusing that the actor who played "Dean" on Gilmore Girls is now "Sam" and his brother is "Dean." As though I don't have enough things in life to be confused about.

Jared Padelecki plays Sam and he says every once in awhile he has to catch himself because the director will give Jensen Ackles instruction and say "And Dean is standing over there". And both Jared and Jensen will take a step toward the mark. lol
