Crappy TV Shows to watch while sick

I haven't been feeling good for the past couple of days, so my butt had been parked on the couch binge watching reality tv. I'm currently obsessed with mob wives. Those ladies are legit insane! Anybody have any bad reality show favorites??

Re: Crappy TV Shows to watch while sick

  • Kardashian or Vanderpump rules. They are horribly entertaining. I love the trash, but I'm so embarrassed I love it.

    Also
    The league
    Blue mountain state
    New girl

    All funny shows to Netflix while sick.. Law and order also great- one weekend I like got an honorary law degree from watching marathons of law and order ;)
  • Loading the player...
  • Thanks guys!! I'll check all these out. I've also been watching a lot of kitchen nightmares and Hell's Kitchen. I think I have a thing for Gordon Ramsay
  • @GFJ48‌ I watched totally tori... It's not even fun at all, it's horrible, you're watching them get a divorce. Like the movie " the break up"- is tori and dean like that?
  • Kardashians
    Real Housewives-all cities except Atlanta & NYC
    Vanderpump Rules
    Watch what happens Live
    These are just the ones I DVR....

    But if I'm flipping thru channels and I see the following I am compelled to stop and watch:
    Chrisley knows best
    Tori & Dean

    I agree, Tori & Dean is just tragic...but its like watching a high speed pursuit on the news, u just have to stop and watch the mess unfold.

    Side note on Vanderpump...I never realized HOW MUCH they drink untill recently when my mouth started watering watching them sip wine and cocktails and I realize I'm usually having one myself while watching. I rarely miss booze these days (though I thought I would) except when watching Vanderpump....but I digress....
  • I love Restaurant Impossible. Pregnancy hormones are also making me a sucker for Animal House, which is about the larger no kill shelter in America. Also rewatching the Office.
  • @ladyteach0505‌ I like the office too! Have you watched the British version? DH wants to watch it with me on netflix

    It's not trashy but I like Arrested Development. Also Extreme couponing and all Food Network shows. I hope you feel better soon! :)
  • My go to when sick is How I Met Your Mother. I think I've watched the series like 4 times through.

  • Orange is the new black, especially the first season. (Netflix)

    Hell's Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares (Hulu)

    I like Dancing with the Stars but I may be the only one lol.
  • @CorryS12‌ it is exactly like a car accident. I watched 3 episodes in a row. I just feel bad the kids could see it someday :/
  • @skupski83‌ have you watched Restaurant Impossible? I love that show! They have a bunch of episodes on Netflix!

    I haven't seen it, but thank god for netflix!! I know how I'll be spendin my day tomorrow...
  • @ladyteach0505‌ I like the office too! Have you watched the British version? DH wants to watch it with me on netflix

    It's not trashy but I like Arrested Development. Also Extreme couponing and all Food Network shows. I hope you feel better soon! :)

    What is it about extreme couponing that drags people in??? I get sucked in every time and I usually always yell at the tv because they always seem to but junk. (Though I admire their ability to get a million dollars worth of stuff for 5 dollars)
  • I could watch America's Next Top Model for hours. That, and the Real Housewives shows are total trashy guilty pleasures.

  • Any and all judge-related shows:
    Judge Judy
    Hot Seat - this one has THREE judges!!
    Paternal Judge
    Etc.

    Pure I-now-feel-better-about-my-life entertainment. :)
  • Top Chef, Grey's Anatomy, and Bones are some I like when I'm sick and miserable.

    I've also been known to binge watch seasons of Downton Abbey while surrounding the couch with tissues.
    Favorite fall activity: roasting pumpkin seeds!

  • So many good ones already listed! I am such a huge fan of crappy TV. I always feel like reality TV makes me feel better about the so called drama in my own life. 

    Did anyone say Friends? I could watch those episodes over and over again. 

    And @corrys12 - I know what you mean about Vanderpump Rules. I always end up craving a glass of white wine while I'm watching it! I loved when Stassi said "I don't know what I did to you, but I'll take a Pinot Grigio!" I can totally picture my non-pregnant self saying that.

  • Rehab addict is my favorite reality show.

    BUT- have you seen Outlander?! I think you can stream it online and I know it is available on demand. There are only 8 episodes so far and they are amazing!
  • New show I picked up: jane the virgin. Totally guilty pleasure.

    I know! I love that show, maybe I aspire to be an extreme couponer (though where I'd store everything I don't know!). I saved $9 yesterday at the store in coupons and felt a small rush . . . sad but you know! I hope you're feeling better! :)
  • I went on a binge watching Hotwives of Orlando on Hulu. It's a parody on all the Real Housewives shows It was pretty terrible and over the top with the humor but had its moments and was enough for a chuckle while I was feeling like death. I've also been watching Dexter recently, which I never got into when it was running. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet but it's good to put on when boredom strikes. I echo everyone else who said the office! US or UK versions!
    I'm not going to spoil it totally, because I used to be a loyal Dexter fan, but how the series ended ruined the whole show for me!
    I used to be obsessed with Dexter but it got ridiculous. I couldn't take it after Deb started the therapist. I just got pissed and refused to watch it anymore. It was ridiculous. I keep saying I'm going to go back and watch the last season and half but I'm not up for the disappointment.
