  • So glad I'm not alone!  My mom tried to get me addicted to real housewives over the holidays, and I'm so glad I usually miss it because those those Orange County ladies are addictive.  I mean - I can only devote so many hours/week to trash!

  • Big trashy/reality TV fan.

    I cannot stop watching most of the E!, Bravo, or Teen Mom/16 and Pregnant programming.  

    I try to watch it during my lunch so that I don't get "look" from DH...

  • Oh Gawwwd! I love trash TV. 

     My confession is that DH was going to be out of town one night this week for work and I was slightly disappointed when his trip was cancelled because I was looking forward to a guilt free TV marathon including Dance Moms, I Didn't Know I was Pregnant and Tori & Dean.

    The only one I can't watch is Hoarders. I feel itchy all over when I watch that one.

  • My embarrassing TV habit is that if DH is still asleep when I get home from work in the morning, I'll watch some Judge Judy or Maury.  Especially if I had a bad day or I'm feeling depressed.  If nothing else, it helps me keep my problems in perspective.  
  • Ok, so I don't like most of the reality shows, but even though (or maybe because) I'm absolutely terrified of flying and yet have to do it regularly because I live overseas and my family is in the US, I watch all the shows about plane crashes (Mayday, Seconds from Disaster, etc). DH always tells me I shouldn't, but I say that they always explain how they found out what the problem was and then changed airline policies or made Boeing/Airbus design new parts, etc, to prevent accidents in the future.

    But still, they can't fix all of them. Metal fatigue is now pretty high up on the list of fears dealing with planes, and I definitely wouldn't have known about it without the shows.

    YES! Those kids bring out crotchity old lady in me. It's just shocking how ridiculous and uneducated these girls (for the most part) act! I KNOW I wasn't that stupid when I was 16!

  • Bravo is my best friend.

    I love most of the Real Housewive's shows, except for Atlanta. Never got into that one, I'm not sure why...
