With things like DVR and On-Demand options, I find myself watching even more TV shows than before. Before I start posting any of my impressions of episodes I've recently watched, I might as well list some of the shows that I watch (the list will not be exhaustive). My primary shows are the ones I tend to watch week by week and generally look forward to watching. My secondary shows are ones that I will watch to tide me over in between episodes of my primary shows. Basically, these kinds of shows aren't that exciting to me, but I watch them more out of habit than anything else. Finally, I have a group of shows that I call my reserves; these are formerly secondary shows that have gotten a bit boring or dramas that I can't be bothered to watch regularly. I usually dip into the reserves when I'm in the mood for a drama, anticipate having a lot of time that I need to fill (such as a long flight), or need something to watch while I work on something (such as writing stories). I tend to not follow the story as closely with my reserves because I will be doing something else while they are on. It's not that I dislike these shows, but they invoke my ADD tendencies. Anyway, here's an idea of my taste in shows:
Primary
- Parks and Recreation (NBC)
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS)
- Community (NBC)
- Regular Show (Cartoon Network)
- New Girl (FOX)
- Adventure Time (Cartoon Network)
- The Simpsons (FOX)
- The Cleveland Show (FOX)
- Family Guy (FOX)
- Once Upon A Time (ABC)
- The Real Housewives of Atlanta (BRAVO)
- Suburgatory (ABC)
- Happy Endings (ABC)
- Archer (FX)
Secondary
- Big Bang Theory (CBS)
- American Dad (FOX)
- Ringer (CW)
- 30 Rock (NBC)
- Up All Night (NBC)
- Portlandia (IFC)
- Grimm (NBC)
Reserves
- House (FOX)
- Gossip Girl (CW)
- Being Erica (SOAPNET)
- Vampire Diaries (CW)
- It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia (FX)
- White Collar (USA)
- Burn Notice (USA)
- Psych (USA)
- Modern Family (ABC)
I also might talk about some shows that I start on Netflix that are no longer airing. For example, I started Nip/Tuck, but the series ended several years ago. Netflix has a nice collection of shows that can either catch you up on current shows or others that you might have missed. I recommend it for anyone who likes regularly watching TV or movies.
Stayed tuned for posts about what I'm watching lately!
