TVidiot

I know I have an addiction to television. I don’t know if I am ready to call it a problem yet or not.

I found a listing for the Fall shows. I used to like shows that were on cable but I am finding I am hooked on broadcast networks more and more. I am pleased I cut my cable back to just basic. One day syfy showed up so all I am missing is USA. I would say BBC America too but I have never had that. I did a final count of all the shows I am interested in watching and those that I will watch (because a lot of shows are on at the same time so someone wins out).

I have 28 hours of tv a week that I am interested in with CBS(8 shows) and ABC(9 shows) leading the pack. My choices for shows that win my viewing pleasure in their time slots is 16 hours and again CBS(5) and ABC(6) are the for runners. CW gets 1, syfy gets 1 and Fox gets 3. USA didn’t make the final cut. But they have me for 3 shows that have just ended. Same goes for TNT, my shows there have just ended.

And this is per WEEK. It is a part time job all on its own. Hopefully as I get more of a life, the desire to see these will dwindle. But I am so caught up in so many. *whaaaaa*

I do notice that Joss and alums from Joss shows are three of will watch even if I have a lift list. Dollhouse, Castle, and Bones. The others are Lie to Me and Brothers & Sisters. The ones that on the edge of Will Make Time for are NCIS, CSI, Sanctuary. I think I need to find a way to include Supernatural and Medium online because while they are on my prime shows list they conflict with shows that are even more important to me. Stupid network scheduling. Sat is pretty open and clear and Wed is low volume. Friday is rediculous in the number of shows I want to see all at the same time. What is it about Friday being a dead spot and nobody watches tv on Friday? That is where my crowd hangs out.

One thought on “TVidiot

  1. TV. The great black hole that has sucked me in and is not letting me go.

    I love the online services that so many networks are giving now. I can watch the programs I want to, when I want to. That way I can work TV around my life instead of my life around TV (not that I have a lot of life at the moment) and they cut the commercials down so that they are shorter too.
