I love TV. Maybe I shouldn’t watch it as much as I do, but whatever. In my defense, I tend to do other things when the TV is on. For instance, I will clean the house while I listen to 20\/20<\/em>, Dateline<\/em>, and stuff I’ve DVR’d from the Investigation Discovery channel<\/a>. I don’t know why, but I have a weird attraction to real life murder stories. Oh and I loooove Catfish<\/em><\/a>! It blows my mind that people would have an online relationship for YEARS without ever seeing the other person’s face.<\/p>\n

I’m sure there are better things I can do with my time, but sometimes I like going back and watching old tv shows, specifically comedies, that are no longer on the air. Last year it was Happy Endings<\/em><\/a> which I thought was cancelled too soon. I cannot get enough of Jane and Brad. Those two are hilarious! I also love Max; I was so happy when Adam Pally was cast in The Mindy Project<\/em><\/a> last season.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the year I starting watching Scrubs<\/em><\/a> again, but then Comcast and ABC got into it and they removed Scrubs from their OnDemand service when I was in the middle of watching season 3. I was not pleased.<\/p>\n

With Joe working long hours this week I decided to start watching My Boys<\/em><\/a> again. I really loved that show! I’m nearly done with season 1 already. I turn it on when I eat dinner and then I let Milo and Gizmo run around on the coffee table while I watch some more.<\/p>\n

I think the next show I might tackle is Charles in Charge<\/em><\/a> if I can stomach it. I really loved it when it originally aired, but I also loved Benji<\/em><\/a> movies and then I made the mistake of buying a movie on DVD and I was overcome by how cheesy it was and had to turn it off.<\/p>\n

As for new shows, I’ve recently discovered Garfunkel and Oates<\/em><\/a> which airs on IFC. I was able to catch up on the old EPs (it premiered in August) and set up a series recording for the new ones. I love the little songs the two actresses come up with and how they get intertwined with the plot of the episode. It’s super creative and funny! I made Joe watch two EPs last night and he really enjoyed them too.<\/p>\n

I also really like The Meltdown<\/em><\/a>. I love stand-up comedy but most stand-up shows are filled with a lot of boring fluff (Last Comic Standing<\/em><\/a> anyone? I think I fast-forwarded through 80%, if not more, of each EP). They take the best jokes of each act and only air those so I never feel the need to fast forward. Plus it’s only a half hour long which is just enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
