9. That is quite an accomplishment
I am the biggest critic around and I've still watched one or two on occasion. Never been hooked on a series though.

6. Survivor, CSI, American Idol,
The Sopranos (although I don't have HBO, so that doesn't count- I really would like to see it), Punk'd, Friends (I've seen about a combined total of five minutes of that show, and I hated it), and many others.

7. never seen a reality show, a complete "Friends"or a complete "Seinfeld"
I boycoty reality shows because they are putting me any my fellow crewmembers out of work. I tried to watch Friends and Seinfeld, but couldn't even get through a whole episode without retching.

I'm sure there are others but I work evenings a lot and never like to get hooked on a particular show. I always missed West Wing.

"Seinfeld" is one of those shows that I didn't want to like but ended up becoming addicted to.

19. Never watched Survivor, the Bachelor/Bachelorette, or the Apprentice
Can't figure out the appeal of those shows. I've watched one episode of Extreme Makeover, couldn't even get through the whole thing.

American Idol, though...that's a different story. It's the frustrated singer in me, I can't help it.

22. Name any show: I haven't watched it.
Edited on Sun Oct-24-04 01:16 AM by fiziwig
I'm a big movie fan so I watch a lot of DVDs, but my TV set has no connection with the outside world. No antenna, no cable, just DVDs.

The next best thing to living in a cave. I haven't seen one single *bush* commercial. Ever. Pure bliss.

On edit: Does it count if I watch an old TV show on DVD, like Star Trek, or Buffy? (Those are the only two by the way.)

23. Everybody Loves Raymond.........NOT
I won't watch any show with a laugh track. So I've never seen a full episode of ELR nor of "Friends". Don't cue me when to laugh. If it's funny, I'll laugh, e.g., "Curb Your Enthusiasm"

24. Hah, I've seen every episode of Cheers.
It's one of those shows that you don't really like but you watch it when it's on, then you start looking for it while channel surfing, and eventually it turns into a soul-sucking addiction.

I've never seen an episode of The Sopranos, Sex and the City, Will & Grace, NYPD Blue, the CSIs, or Everybody Loves Raymond.

31. Most of them.........
I can't watch most if the drivel on Netwok TV. Some examples would be; Friends, "Reality"TV (The Swan, Survivor, The Apprentice etc.)Will and Grace, cripe..........all of them. I'd much rather watch something that I might learn something from, than wasting my time on ridiculous situation "comedies"and the like. I'm very discerning in my television habits. But that's just the way I am.
