American Idol?

I have not watched American Idol. I am only vaguely aware of what the whole premise of the show is. From time-to-time, I see some bloggers commenting on it and I happen to catch snippets in the news.

I’m afraid my TV watching habits have put me out of touch with current culture.

I like to watch Fox News with Brit Hume at 6:00 pm, if I get home in time. If I’m surfing, I like to watch “What Not to Wear” and “In a Fix” on TLC, but only if I happen to be channel surfing when they’re on. Otherwise, I may watch something on the History Channel, if I happen to be interested in what they are showing.

I feel like I’m about thee sigma off the mean.

We generally have the TV on, but I can't say I watch that much TV either. I also enjoy the History Channel, Travel Channel, The Learning Channel, and A&E.

I hate all reality shows and the like. Can't understand why so many people like them.

There are a few shows that we do like and I 'half watch' them while on the computer. They are The Shield, Lost, Las Vegas, Alias, Monk, Nip-Tuck. The problem is the seasons are now so short they're only a few eposides each year.

I do like the classics and watch them from time to time. Nora and I also get Netflix which is a great way to see the movies you really want.

Ted,

Ditto for us. But you left out the Sci-Fi channel!! Heaven forbid!
