| Some shows I never saw the first time around include M*A*S*H*, The Virginian, Desperate Housewives, Reba, and Tales of Wells Fargo. I really on hooked on Housewives. There were two episodes every day. I was between jobs and watched them all in a short period. Then I was done. I don't wish to see them again. I discovered Reba late last year. Never knew she had a TV show. I loved it but overdid it. Can't stand to watch it now. And I hate her newest show that just started: Pappy's Place. The magic just isn't there this time. Some shows I can watch over and over, like M*A*S*H*, the Andy Griffith Show, Tales of Wells Fargo, Seinfeld, Frazier. there are some I liked the first time around, but can't stand the reruns, like Designing Women, The Golden Girls. and the Carol Burnett Show. I seem like a simpleton, even to myself, considering how I can spend time watching silly shows and predictable westerns. A few of them are objectionable and chauvinistic, products of their time. In a way, it's comforting to have familiar sounds and characters. And I'm one of those people who likes to do two things at once, like pay bills or sew while watching. I mostly like old movies, the older the better. I watched a British film the other day, didn't know a single star, but loved it. I suppose this has been a blessing in my old age and my infirmity. Now that I'm getting stronger, I will be spending less time in front of a TV set. At least if I get some ear phones, I can listen to books on tape. |
