Do You Have A TV Show That You would Be Embarrassed About If Your Friends Found Out?

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Pawn Stars and American Pickers. Though that's more of a thing where my family watches it and I just end up watching it as a result sometimes. The guys in those shows annoy the hell out of me too. Not really that much that I like it but more of a thing where if the other family folks are watching it I don't really mind watching it a bit either. Though the only people I can imagine that would care about me watching those shows are the folks here. Some of my friends hate on the stuff I like, but, I just think of it as whatever since I hate a lot of their stuff too.

Ha. Hardcore Pawn is where it's at.

As for embarrassing shows, Pokemon and the occasional My Little Pony.

That doesn't really seem embarrassing anymore.

It's coming back?! I'm not one for cartoons, but the surrealism of that cartoon is great!

Yep, here is the leaked teaser for the 2012 season:

Your username is wilycoyote and you don't like cartoons?

 

[wilycoyote]

Your username is wilycoyote and you don't like cartoons?

I'm from Phoenix, and used to be a huge hockey fan, and consequently a Phoenix Coyotes fan. This username was the outcome of an exhaustive process of incorporating that love into a username.

The Hour of Power, a guilty pleasure of mine

Even I have the decency to not watch that show.

I thought the rest of the first world was civilized enough NOT to have a market for such a show. Though, to be honest, I had never heard of it until I just looked it up. Are you also graced with the 700 Club?

Bad science isn't fun to watch

I've heard they actually consult physicists to ensure that the science is all good. Bill likes it, so I suppose that says it can't be too bad.

I honestly have not seen much of the show. We weren't exposed to it as kids when we were very young because it wasn't really considered appropriate.

What what?

I can't think of anything I currently watch that would be embarrassing. My friends make fun of me for liking Star Trek, but they already know about it, so I don't care. I did, however, watch Arthur much longer than I'd care to admit.

 

[GoodGame]

Nah, because I sold all my friends. Very few people know that I sometimes watch Glee though (ooops!!!).

Ye the stuff on the blackboards is all legit stuff and surprisingly up to date sometimes as well.

I don't watch TV unless there's football, basketball, or a good movie involved.

 

[azzaman333]

Nope, although I barely watch any TV in the first place.

Arthur was the closest that children's programming could get to a Degrassi type show, without being a Degrassi type show.

During youth I watched for some time Sailor Moon .
Not sure in which way it's more embarrassing to watch anime girls during puberty .

Oh, and desparate housewives is not a bad show .
(just watched a few episodes, nothing more)

Else I don't watch much TV today, and mostly no series.

I get the feeling there's been a miscommunication... Arthur is definitely not for children.

I'm talking about this...what are you talking about?

 

[NickyJ]

I'm talking about this...what are you talking about?

I'll admit it, I have a soft spot for that show, mostly because I grew up on it. That said, I haven't watched it in years, mostly because I can't bear to change the channel from Rawhide.

Anyway, if we're supposed to be embarrassed about watching a show, why would we want to say which show it is? Now, just to make sure there's no doubt whatsoever, there are absolutely no shows I am embarrassed to watch. And I'm sure you all believe me.

My enthusiasm for the first couple of seasons of Lost made it hard to hide the fact that I watched seasons three and four as well.

 

[shadowplay]

I used to watch American Idol, and was pretty embarassed by that.

 

[classical_hero]

That is the biggest show on TV, so what is there to be ashamed of watching that?
