For me it is "Everyday Italian" on the Food Network. Watching Giada DeLaurentiis alternate between "American" and over pronounced Italian pronunciations of the various things drives me batshit crazy.

2. The Sunday morning talk shows
Every now and then I get to cheer and give a big "in your face!" to the TV (like Howard Dean, Barbara Boxer, Cindy Sheehan)...Most of the time is spent screaming "Liar!"

7. Not since the debates.
I strained my vocal cords yelling at *, and my husband still thinks I'm a little looney for it. But he does the same thing when he listens to talk radio, and I think that just the fact he listens to talk radio is a little looney.

8. No
It is illogical to yell at a TV.
