5. "Oh, GAWD! why are you watching THAT crap!"

"How about I go rent a movie about a nice guy who gets fucked-over by every woman he's ever opened his heart to then I can be shitty to YOU and claim 'Nothing...' when you ask what's wrong?"

Yeah, I know, they've never MADE that movie....

9. My wife usually watches HGTV

And it's usually telling her stuff she already knows.

Second choice is either Sundance (good) or Entertainment TV (yucko).

If it were up to me I'd use the TV for target practice with my new assault rifle.

11. I'm a fella, and I watch The Golden Girls sometimes

The movies are beyond bad though. I read an article on the popularity of The Golden Girls among gay men. It was interesting. I would be Dorothy, except for the whole lack of dates problem.

13. I'm not sure, 'cause I'm usually curled up in the fetal position,

whimpering in the corner, my pseudo-macho masculinity crushed like so much powdered instant cappuccino.

16. She No, Me Maybe

I know I am mor3e likely to watch the "Womens" channels more than she is. But I tend to go for movies and musicals while she watches Quilting and HGTV.

18. Hell NO,

My name is Joyce and I just hijacked the keyboard from Jeff. Both of us are political junkies first and foremost. I'm a marketing maven professionally so we love to expose the bullshit. Apart from Chris Matthews (what a hoot to find out DUers have nicknamed him "Tweety"), the Daily Show and Southpark -- we stick to Netflix and Turner Classic Movies. Now -- I'll turn the helm back to hubby and rescue my burning garlic bread.

21. I watched Lifetime for "Unsolved Mysteries" while in the US

It was an old favorite of mine but they took it off air here in Australia and so it was wonderful to have the opportunity to see it again

25. I watch Lifetime, I think it's hilariously funny

Each of the movies is exactly the same, so if I turn on part of a movie and then shut it off- I can pick right back up with another movie later in the day... and the plotline still works!

26. There's a copycat thread I could do but I'd just get in trouble

Take the first five characters. Think of the possibilities.
