WHen my kids' father got sick I stopped watching soap operas. (Had enough drama in my life without that stuff). As he got sicker I struck off the list all the hospital shows and forensic shows. When he died I gave up on Survivor and the Greatest Race type reality shows... they call that real life? And since then (8 years now) I have stuck to 1/2 hr comedies and game shows. As my children have healed it has been easier to watch TV again, but I really don't miss that stuff. It just hurt my mind. (Had a student in school who used that expression whenever I asked him to try and do his work... It just hurts my mind.

WOW Mamagus. Bless you for working thru the problems. And it's always good to see someone who knows how to sort priorities to make a better life.

I don't like the Halloween stuff either, and even the NCIS marathon had a Halloween theme. No TV for me. Just music

I did not know there were DVD's of Doc Martin. Now he is an semi-old curmudgeon! I will check my Costco. THank you.

Criminal Minds and Stephen King scare me to much to watch/read.
HGTV and "The GOOD WIFE".

Who needs TV--if I don't like the programming, there are movies for loan at our town library, as well as books and magazines. And, music through a variety of venues. Don't get me wrong, I watch TV when it suits me, but really enjoy the other choices, too. piecefully, the old one

Not into horror movies, or I Love Lucy (yuk)

October is one of my favorite months of the year because I DO like to watch all the horror movies.

I hate the Halloween shows and absolutely never watch them. I think I'm probably in the minority however.

grandma Janice 10-31-2011 06:10 AM

I'm not in to horror films. Just didn't watch much TV this week.
