What's your TV guilty pleasure?

TV shows.....

Community
Svetlana ( very under rated show ) it is on HDnet...look it up...well worth it.
Cops
Simpsons

I also watch any show on disease and viruses and pretty much Discovery ID on all day at my place.
 
I don't know if this is a"guilty pleasure" or not, but I enjoy watching Spongebob Squarepants with my kids!

I also occasionally turn on pro-wrestling, but not as much as I used to. Usually I tune in now to confirm that it's the same old rehashed stuff and I'm not missing anything.

I changed my days off because Sunday is the only time I can enjoy this guilty pleasure. It is the only time they are on in these parts: God bless the Stooges!

Of course, there is also another guilty pleasure, that my wife cannot get into for they are almost sixty years old: God bless Ralph!

I don't think Game of Thrones would qualify as a 'guilty' pleasure, but it's the only thing I'm regularly recording on the DVR right now.

Hmm, I'm not sure most of [adult swim]'s nighttime offerings are that 'guilty' of a pleasure either. --Except maybe to the occasional fewl who thinks that all cartoons are silly and childish...yes, I have one friend like that. :rolleyes:

Guilty pleasure that just ended: The Amazing Race, mostly because I've actually met one of the teams on this just-ended season in real life. And that's about as far as I ever want to get into 'competition' reality shows.

Gotta say, I was a huge fan of the old BSG and even wrote two novel-length manuscripts (never submitted, but people liked 'em) based on the show when I was c. 15. Because I was a huge fan I delayed watching the reimagined series on SciFi for a few years, and then I finally watched the first miniseries on DVD...and was blown away. If you haven't given it much of a try, do so. They kept enough of the 'flavor' of the original to please a diehard fan like me, but improved on almost everything...even making awesome use of SF devices (like the ships' jump drive) to add drama to the plot. Time magazine called it "the best drama on television," high praise indeed for a sci-fi show but well-deserved.

Back to tv shows I watch many and have many even rarities like Lobo, Wizards and Warriors, and The Master.

Oooh, that one's hard to find.
 
Don't know what would constitute a "guilty" pleasure so I'll just list them I guess: Smallville (one more show that abandoned me ..bye 24 and Lost..), The Office (bye Michael probably not guilty), Conan, V, and as an animator, lots of animation from DC/Marvel DVDs, to Anime, Disney, some Cartoon Network, to anything I can find that suits me on Youtube.

Yeah, I'd definitely put anything that airs on "The WB" as a guilty pleasure... :D

Never! :p Nikita is one of the best action thrillers on television. And Supernatural became surprisingly good late this season, after a pretty lame start.

Your comment would have been much more appropriate back when I was watching Gossip Girl. :D

A friend just brought me the first couple of seasons but I have not watched them yet. It for some reason is hard to bring myself to it but I'm sure I will. but soon starting 9th season of Smallville just picked it up tonight. At first I hated that show, it was Buffy with kryptonite but it eventually pulled me in.
I have a lot of rare shows like Wizards and Warriors, I found that years ago and it was not on the circuit. I was a tape dealer at Dragon Con a few times several years ago and introdued it into the circuit down there. Will after the flood of tape and DVD dealers came in I was done and stepped away. I started to cut it down a lot, my collection that is.
I do regret getting rid of Werewolf when I heard it was officially being released, but that one is pretty easy to get again.
 
I am old school reality trash ... Survivor (the one that kicked it all off). Ironically, I don't care for any other reality shows. Maybe because I am embarrassed by this one. But at least its something the wife and I can watch together.
 
I still watch Glee for the moment. Its been absolute garbage and I'm dropping it after this season.
Usually watch Phineas and Ferb at night at its 10:30pm time and I also started watching The Voice because Javier Colon graduated from the same school as me (although he graduated the year before I started).

If you still watch the new episodes I'd call it a guilty pleasure. The show has sucked for years now.

I'll admit to this one as well, though the I mostly started watching it due to my mom having it on the tv while I have a snack. I used to hate Joan Rivers, but she's absolutely hilarious on the show.

Oops, forgot about this one. The Mrs has a little fashionista in her, so she started watching it. I kept hearing her bust out laughing, and started gravitating in front of the tv. It's brutally funny.
