top five tv shows?
House is my number one - he’s such a snarky SOB and i love how good the writing is on the show. cannot live without it.
Supernatural comes in at number two, do i have to explain how awesome it is??
Doctor Who, because it’s just freaking awesome! going to miss David Tennant when he ends his run as the 10th Doctor.
Lie To Me - this show is very intellectually stimulating and so much different than anything i’ve ever watched. and so interesting to see that you can tell if someone is lying just by watching their face!
Top Gear - this i have to download from England for the time being but my fiance got me into it. you learn alot about cars and what is good and what isn’t, plus they always have awesome challenges that make you laugh!
my guilty pleasure is probably watching Nickelodeon cartoons. it keeps me feeling young and some of them, like the Penguins of Madagascar, are hilarious!
i voted in the vampires assistant contest, voted for two more authors in the poll, Claudia Gray and Chloe Neill.
Top five shows:
1. NCIS - Gibbs and Abby…what’s not to like?
2. Bones - Booth. ‘Nuff said.
3. True Blood - Self explanatory
4. CSI - A bit more realistic than CSI: Miami and I don’t have to put up
with David Caruso. LOL
5. CSI: NY - Gary Sinese
Voted in Round 3
Guilty pleasure….hmmm…probably smut books.
I’m afraid I only get to watch cartoons these days, as I have a little guy that steals the tv. Not much I get to watch. I can only think of 2 shows that I sometimes get to see. NCIS and Bones. I love both because Gibbs from NCIS is always right and Bones just kills me with her one track mind.
My guilty pleasure is a trip to any coffee spot. Not really a secret, but it’s the only “me” time I get every now and then.
Steps, 3, 4, and 5 are done.
Thanks,
Fallon H
Wow…. five shows on right now ? I read too much… LOL
Buffalo Sabres on the NHL network
Castle
Vampire Diaries
Bones
and Supernatural since it is my sons fave show too….
Secret….. My MP3 has the most diverse songs on it… Nickleback, MCR, to Bay City Rollers and Mika…..
My 5 fav shows are: NCIS, Burn Notice, Criminal Minds, Masterpiece Mystery (Inspector Lewis), and No Reservations. The first three I watch for the action and crime novelty. I guess Masterpiece Mystery falls into that category and I love the British aspect of the crime solving. As for No Reservations, I just love Anthony Bourdain’s snark and love of food. I’m jealous of all the wonderful places he gets to visit and the delicious food.
My guilty pleasure if no secret to anyone who knows me well. It is writing paranormal book. I do this whenever I have free time I jump on my computer and bang out a few pages. Whenever, I’m not reading, that is…

4 =Comment by Heather C — October 12, 2009 @ 12:17 pm
Hi Jim!!! Thanks for stopping by!!! What inspirated you to start writing about goblins and princesses? What are your favorite fairy tales?
5 = i’m off to vote right now for Chloe Neill and Mary Janice Davidson.
NCIS Abby and Gibbs. Bones, Booth or Angel woohoo! Fringe great storyline about parelle universes. Jay Leno ..Enough said. But I have to add Sanctuary, best sci/fi show. My guilty pleasure is sun bathing in the nude. I know it’s bad for you but I still do it once in a while!!!
1. Scare Tactics- because it is just hilarious!
it’s funny!
2. Ghost Hunters- I am waiting to see an aparition, but also it’s just neat to watch them hunt!
3. Vampire Diaries- because I’m a vampire addict.
4. Tool Academy- it makes me appreciate my hubby. The guys on the show are jerks for sure!!
5. Bridezillas- It’s just amazing that some women can be such monsters on their wedding days
My guilty pleasure is sneaking in Fast food while hubby is at work. It’s so easy sometimes to just run out to McDonalds or Wendy’s if me and the little one are already out doing errands and he doesn’t have to know about it
not that he would care. But he lets me stay home with our son and the little one we have on the way, while he works all day outside with just the lunch I packed him. So I feel guilty for that, but it’s such a pleasure to eat! And I do have dinner ready every day for him when he gets home and we all eat together like normal… he doesn’t need to know about my fast food addiction LOL!
Voted #4 for I have awesome vampire powers
Voted in the FPAY’s
Please don’t enter me for the Heretic’s Daughter, I’ve already got that one

Oh my goodness… 5 shows huh
1. Fairly Odd Parents (cartoon) I’m addicted to how silly it is! It’s just so weird and fun that it makes me smile.
2. iCarly - More kids shows… It’s oddly annoying and quite weird but the characters are fun to watch and I’m rooting for Freddie!
3. Gossip Girl - My sisters got me hooked… damnit
4. House - He’s amazing and psycho, need I say more?
5. Drop Dead Diva - I love the storyline and I’m rooting for Jane to find love from the one made for her–even if he was technically in love with her soul, not her. Does that make sense? LOL…and you gotta love her assistant ^_~
My one guilty pleasure I’ll share here is that I love to watch kids shows–they’re ridiculous and frivilous but ohsomuch fun from reality TV and all the random *beep* shows out there right now *sigh*

Top 5 television shows, in no particular order:
Supernatural–been watching since season 1, what’s not to love about 2 hot guys dealing with supernatural occurrences? There are a lot of legends and lore that are fascinating, I even learn some new ones!
Vampire Diaries–read the books when I was in 7th grade, so they were already 10 years old, loving the new ones btw! The show is different than the novel, but still good. Really like it so far.
True Blood–yup, more vampires, more shows based on books. Of course I don’t own HBO so I have to wait for the DVD but I really did enjoy season 1 despite its differences and the sex overload HBO did to it, but then again they are HBO.
Psych–a very funny show imo. Shawn is just plain funny, he comes up with these almost random comments that either contribute to the topic at hand or don’t, but they’re just so funny. Plus he fakes being a psychic detective and his friend Gus is always the butt of some scheme and Lassader gets picked on a lot for being kind of mean. And yeah, basically just a really funny show.
Monk–another detective show, in its final season now. He is an OCD detective. Really likes things neat and all that. He can be annoying, but it’s funny, his overall attitude and stuff like that is funny. Plus I hope in this final season he solves his wife’s murder that he had been trying to solve in earlier seasons but never could.
Secret obsession? Hmm….not really. Sorry! My obsessions are known, if that helps.
Going to do my vote for paranormal authors round 3 right now!
House , cause he can be such an ass.
So You Think You Can Dance, love to watch these gifted people, sometimes it’s hard to believe real people can do some of those moves.
Bones, love all the characters and plots. I hope Angela and Hodgins get back together. They just have to bring Zak back! Great fun show.
Fringe, sci-fi paranormal.
Sanctuary, sci-fi paranormal

Well happy moving!!!!
1. Favorite Shows: 1. Castle — funny, suspenseful, sexy, and it’s about a writer.

2.Big Bang Theory- Geeks Rock!
3.So You Think You Can Dance- dancing is fun!
4.Vampire Diares- because I love the books too.
5.Bridezillas- It’s just funny!
2)…Singing at the top of my lungs in the car…
(even though I can’t sing) GUILTY!!!
3,4,& 5
DONE DONE DONE =)
Disregard the previous post. My mouse is acting up.
1. Favorite Shows: 1. Castle — funny, suspenseful, sexy, and it’s about a writer.
2. Dollhouse — Dushku is awesome, and wish she’d do more to keep her in the spotlight.
3. Vampire Diaries — It’s such a welcome relief to see a dark vampire series after all the hubbub over the airy fairy Twilight hype (and then Buffy staked Edward. The End)
4. Eastwick — I was dreading this series, but it’s turning out to be better than I expected. Witches. Need I say more.
5. Being Human — The too-short first season of this British series about a Ghost, Werewolf, and Vampire trying to blend into the human world knocked my socks off. It has great character development, and the powerhouse finale left me wanting more (and they are working on Season 2).
2. Guilty pleasure would have to be Dancing with the Stars. I love this show and never miss an episode (but you didn’t hear me say that).

1) I don’t even own a tv. I do make sure to be around one for Steelers football though.
2) Not so much a guilty pleasure but my biggest none the less. My hoard, my books. I not so recently moved from FL to AZ and over half the U-Haul I drove back was my books. I cannot even unpack most of them still because I am having difficulty finding big enough book shelves for my new house. Even when I was a kid my family said they never had to worry about me doing anything else because I was addicted to books.

I voted in Round 3-tougher and tougher each week!
I only watch Bones and House…and I enjoy both for their protagonists–snarky, smart, and logical. :3
1. I don’t have FIVE favorite shows, because I just don’t watch that much TV. I like reading better
The only show I currently even see on a regular basis is Ghost Hunters. I sometimes watch History Detectives on PBS if I remember when it’s on. Been thinking about picking up the first seasons of Fringe and Supernatural, to see if I like them, but currently I’m too busy for that. I’ve already missed the start of Stargate Universe.
2. I have no secret guilty pleasure…everyone knows I’m a chocoholic. (Although apparently I have what other people consider a weird taste for licorice. I always get black jelly beans around Easter.)

Posted a link on my Facebook and will vote on round 3 later because my phone doesn’t support the right Javascript.
Good luck with your move, Rachel!!! Moving is a MAJOR PAIN IN THE…

Loved Jim and Pam’s wedding… awwwwwww! ;0)

#1 I rarely watch TV..too many good books to read.. so I don’t have 5 fav., but I did just finish watching True Blood on DVD..why I love the book series, and wanted to see if they were going to royally screw it up for the show or get it close..
#2 guilty pleasures? not guilty, but probably smut books too [that would curl your hair..lol]. I stick some of them with other files so that if my brother snatches files while working on my machine, good chance he’ll end up with some he doesn’t want. LOL Lucy you got some splaning to do..

done awesome interview
Oh! I also went over to Jim’s interview
Doctor Who - it’s just epic. David Tennant will be sorely missed.
Castle - Nathan Fillion is one of the funniest people ever!
The Mentalist - The MC fascinates me and the supporting cast/characters are great too
Chuck - I have a weak spot for adorable nerdy types. Plus the whole spy element is awesome too
Dexter - What’s not to love about a serial killer who murders murderers? Plus Michael C. Hall has lovely eyes.
2. I don’t really have a guilty pleasure… I’m definitely guilty of singing in the car, though. Oh, and indulging in chocolate. A lot.
3. Done
4. On my way

I am thinking the same thing a lot of people are saying…Five, huh? I also read a little much.
1.) Top Chef- My hubby and I watch this weekly together.
2.) Good Eats- Cooking I can actually duplicate!
3.) Sons of Anarchy- ‘Jax’ is wonderful eye candy (who doesn’t like to watch the bad boys)
4.)Spongebob Sqarepants- I wish I could live in a pineapple under the sea
5.)RW/RR: The Ruins- In case I feel lacking in drama, I can always get into theirs
Guilty Pleasures for me are definitely smutty books.
I have voted for Vampire Assistant.
I have voted in Round 3.
1. Bones–love the banter between Bones and Booth (LOVE David Boreanaz) and the macabre nature of many of the cases.
2. Fringe–not quite The X Files, but almost…
3. The Vampire Diaries–what can I say…I love vampires!
4. Sanctuary–fantasy and paranormal all rolled in to one. Love this show!
5. Supernatural–Dean and Sam…is any other explanation needed?
Guilty pleasure? Watching The Real Housewives of Atlanta! Don’t judge!

Voted in the Round 3 FPAY Awards Poll
1. True Blood - its great. So glad it turned out as well as it did, even with the differences from the books its still great.
House - I love his attitude and meanness, its amusing.
The Office - Great Humor.
Ghost Hunters - The best ghost hunting show out there. If they think its haunted it really is.
Eastwick - Surprised that its turning out as well as it is. At first watch just for curiosity.
2. Bad realty shows and shows like 90210, Melrose Place, The Hills, and Gossip Girl. I really cant explain why I watch any of them. I dont go out of my way to see them but if they are on, I will end up watching.
3. done

The Office: They have the best writers, best show eva.
New Adventures of Old Christine: I always laugh out loud watching this show.
UFC: Hot guys beating up each other, yummy. I pretend they are fighting over me!
The Soup: I love that I don’t have to watch all the crap on tv. I can watch The Soup and get the low down on all the best parts!
Dirty Jobs: Mike Rowe is hot and the jobs he does are so gross! Love it.
My guilty pleasure are iCarly and iced lattes from McDonald’s. I always get one when I am out running errands.
I voted in the polls
My favorite shows are True Blood (well, that’s obvious!), Weeds (It’s so funny and jaw-dropping all at once), Bones (I adore TJ Thyne and the show is always interesting, even if it is formulaic), So You Think You Can Dance (Hey, it’s awesome dancing! And I love watching people just throw themselves into their dreams. It’s always great to watch people do things they love), and Mad Men (this is a fantastic show. I used to do theater with one of the main actors and have always been a fan and followed his career. I get a kick out of seeing him do something so well-received. (hint: he worked with david Boreanaz, too, for a little 6-degrees thing))
My guilty pleasure is availing myself of all things Alexander Skarsgård. I adore him in a probably unnatural yet completely natural way. He’s the ONLY one on my “list”, if you know what I mean. Even Johnny Depp got the boot and he’s been on there forever. Never been so head over heels for an actor before- I’m like a giddy schoolgirl sometimes.
I have done the rest or will as soon as I click off here. Thanks!
1. Castle (love Nathan Fillion)
2. Heroes (great story line, keeps me guessing)
3. Sanctuary (keep coming up with new abnormals each episode)

2. The Big Band Theory, cus it’s hilarious as! Gotta love Sheldon!
3. NCIS - but only the original, not the one with chris o’donnell (gag), cus I love Mark Harmons’ acting and cus I love cop shows too.
4. Smallville, cus I’ve always liked superman, and I’ve watched Smallville since I was young and it began, so I love it.
5. ER, cus I used to watch grey’s anatomy and then started watching ER and dropped grey’s like a hot-cake cus it just suddenly stopped appealing to me lol.
Here’s a really old show that I love 21 Jump Street starring Johnny Depp. Love him!

1.) Vampire Diaries
2.) Supernatural
3.) True Blood
4.) Sanctuary
5.) CSI (got to have one regular show in here…)
The first four are because they are all of the unnatural. What might be, could be, and possibly are.. All deal with the dark side, and that my friends my guilty pleasure, the dark side of life… (I have a dungeon inside of my home)
1. Supernatural. I’m gonna marry Jensen Ackles. The whole show is just awesome.
2. True Blood. All around fantastic show. And, come on, Aleksander Skarsgard?
3. Flashforward. Fantastic new idea.
4. Bones. The interaction between Booth and Brennan is great.
5. Burn Notice. Hot spy, kick ass female, and funny.

1. Damages - Glenn Close is amazing, Lost - Because I have to figure out what’s going on, FlashForward - It’s unique and science-fictiony, Stargate Universe-Reminds me a bit of BSG and I have always been a stargate fan, Sactuary-ok, it’s a bit cheesy, but I love the subject matter, TrueBlood-Is an explanation really needed?, and I have to add a fifth because I love Vampire Diaries (or maybe I should put this down for my guilty pleasure).

1. Wow, I’m not actually watching five TV shows right now, but I’ll try to make this work.
#1: Castle
#2: Chuck (which returns in March! — can’t wait)
#3: The Guild (a Web cast, but it counts, right?)
#4: Mythbusters
#5: Watching my DVDs of either The Middleman or Firefly
2. I don’t think I actually have a guilty pleasure — certainly not a secret one! The pleasure my husband teases me for the most is reading romance novels.
3. Done
4. Done
5. Done
Gah! I forgot to say why I liked the TV shows.
1a: Castle, because I love what the showrunners are doing with comparing the writing process to solving murder mysteries. I also love the banter between Fillion and Katic, and think the cast is doing a great job selling the characters.
1b: I miss Chuck so much — the season finale last year was jaw dropping! It’s good spy fun — lots of funny, but also lots of heart. Again, stellar cast: Levi, Baldwin, and Strahovski have great team chemistry.
1c: Wow, does anyone need a reason to love Mythbusters? Explosions! Science! Humor! It’s a great show.
1d: I just found The Guild after “Do You Wanna Date My Avatar” was released, and it’s a great, quick show — episodes are usually between five and eight minutes. The format is really exciting, and Felicia Day plays an awesome gamer geek.
1e: The Middleman and Firefly were both cancelled before their time, and if there were new episodes, both would make my currently-watching list. Great writing, great acting, great concepts.
1 Here goes, the top five shows I enjoy watching:
CSI Las Vegas
CSI Miami
NCIS
NCIS LA the new spin off
Fringe
and there are a few more:
Stargate Universe
Medium
True Blood
2 Guilty pleasure: I love staying up late so I can read in peace and quiet

I am definately going to see The Vampire’s Assistant.

Here are my favorite shows:
Cities of the Underworld
Clash of the Gods
Ace of Cakes
House
NCIS
I don’t know if I have a guilty pleasure that my family doesn’t know about. They all know about my addiction to books, especially romance, and my love of volleyball in all forms. So, if I have a guilty pleasure they don’t know about, perhaps it would be my secret stash of Reese’s pieces (even though they know it’s my favorite candy).
I have voted in both places!
I just wrote Jim a question (#173) and completed the other stuff already (#73).
BUT I do have to correct my spelling of Kisten’s last name… it’s Felps (sorry Kim Harrison… what’s wrong with
me?)
OK, here we go:
1. Tell us what your top FIVE favorite TV shows you are watching right now and why you like them.
DWTS - okay, normally it’s better than this year, this year it’s a train wreck.
Eastwick - I always love watching the witches!
Bones - My hubby is so addicted, I’ve kinda caught on too.
Army Wives - Not quite as real as it should be, but still good.
Ghost Whisperer/Medium - I like them both, though they are very different.
2. Guilty Pleasure: Other than hubby? Okay, that means, I love to take a nice relaxing bath with bath oils to make my skin soft and sexy.
3. VOting for vampire’s assitant - already done.
