Entertainment Thursday: Television that Evil Contraption

Recently Jon asked me how many shows I watched on television and I was forced to admit not only to him but also to myself how bad my TV addiction really is...and I'm an active person with an active social life...but when I'm home it is so easy to get sucked into the tube. So here it goes, a straight out confession to everyone:

Sunday
The Amazing Race

Monday
Chuck
Heroes
The City

Tuesday
The Biggest Loser
Privileged
The New 90210
The Real Housewives of Orange County (wow Tuesdays are a really embarrasing night for me!)

Wednesday
Lost
Top Chef

Thursday
The Office

Friday
The Ghost Whiperer
Friday Night Lights

13 shows!!! That's insanity and that doesn't count movie watching and sports (baseball, football, basketball, olympics, etc, etc). Granted some shows I watch while I'm at the gym, and every show I DVR so I can skip the commercials (cutting down my TV watching time a little) but who am I kidding, I need to grab control over this craziness!

Now some of these shows are finished for the season (ie: Top Chef and Real Housewives of Orange County, Privileged). For the rest of the shows I'm going to finish out the season and then I'm going to have to make some tough decisions. I want to cut my TV watching down to no more than 1 hour a day (unless I'm watching sports or a movie because those are obviously more than an hour but if I watch sports or a movie then I cannot be watching shows on top of it).

So if I had to pick 5 shows that I would not give up they would be:

Lost
The Ghost Whisperer
Friday Night Lights
The Amazing Race
Chuck or Heroes are going to have to battle it out for that last slot!

A year ago if you had asked me I would have put The Office in my Top 5 easily but lately I feel that The Office is really going down hill. It's just not nearly as funny as it used to be and they're trying to hard.
