So you are going to learn from this post alone that I am absolutely addicted to watching TV shows. I roughly watch probably about four to 6 hours of Netflix or TV a day. I watch a decent amount of movies but for the most part I watch TV shows. I also found out if I am really into a show I have no saturation point. Pretty much meaning I can just keep watching a show and not stop until I am either done with a season or if the show was short lived the whole series. So lets get this list started.
1.) Current Shows: Community (TV/DVD), How I met Your Mother (TV/Netflix), South Park (TV/Netflix), Peep Show (Netflix), The Walking Dead (AMC), Psych (TV/Netflix), and GO ON (TV), Parks and Rec (TV/Netflix), Elementary (TV), and American Horror Story (TV/Netflix), Adventure Time (TV), Regular Show (TV), Amazing World of Gumball (TV), Robot Chicken (TV), Children's Hospital (TV), Doctor Who (streaming), Supernatural (Netflix)
2.) Peripheral Shows: Once Upon a Time, Dateline Specials, Downton Abbey
3.) Guilty Refusals: Homeland and Game of Thrones
4.) Guilty Pleasures: Price is Right, Lets make a Deal, Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Paranormal Witness, Celebrity Ghost Stories, Haunted Campus. I really have no idea why I love the paranormal shows so much.
The ones like Ghost Adventures I really like because I swear the guys in it are high or drunk for over half the show and they just make total idiots out of themselves.
5.) All-Time Favorites: Community, IT Crowd, Black Books, Adventure Time, Firefly, Supernatural, Peep Show, That Mitchell And Webb Look, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Arrested Development
My favorite show of all time is Community I watch it everyday and I have also seen every episode ten times.
6.) Shows I Used to Like, But Not So Much Anymore: New Girl, The Office, and Fringe
I have been watching the last season of The Office and have really enjoying it the only way though it will get off this section off the list is if Steve Carrell comes back for some episodes this season.
7.) Shows I resisted for a long time but now I'm a fan: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Doll House, Fringe, Roseanne
All of these shows I have watched the whole way through and I actually give credit to these show for helping realize not to judge a show by the name or the premise. Now I give almost every new show a chance.
8.) I Would Rather Eat Charcoal than watch these shows: Secret Life of an American Teenager, Pretty Little Liars, Switched at Birth, Amish Mafia, Moonshiners
I really hate the ABC Family original programs and also anything new that discovery or History channel does.
9.) TV shows I watch every day: Community, South Park, Adventure Time, and Regular Show, SpongeBob
Article Analysis
1.) This review is of the article "the TV guide" by Josh Levin The other article had broken link. The article itself mainly was about different critics and why/what their reviewing process is about. The article does to tend to focus on the critic Alan Sepinwall and how he changed how the way television reviews are written by writing week to week reviews instead of focusing on sweeps which allows the writer but also the readers to keep guessing on that will happen in the next episode as opposed to what will happen when ever sweeps hits. I think the big part I liked about this article is how it gave really good examples about how these types of reviews and have helped save shows and also have caused more people to getter smarter about TV viewing.
2.) The first link that I clicked in the article was the one where it had said Spinal had been in Community. The main reason why I clicked on it is because Community is my favorite TV show and I am always looking for things I have missed in pretty much every episode. The second link I clicked on was the link to the AV Clubs reviews or the short-lived TV shows Terriers. I clicked on this one because I am also a huge fan of that show and it got my interest. What I learned from the first link was that mainly Spinal had actually had a Cameo in the episode which really surprised because now it made me wonder if they had put in any more critics that had come to visit the show surprised in as extras. What I learned from the second link I clicked is that the fan base of terriers is pretty dedicated to the show and it seems like a good bit of them read the reviews of the show because there are at least three pages of user comments on each review of the show.
