One thing that really helps me wind down at the end of a stressful workday is watching other people's crazy lives on television. I admit, I LOVE reality television! There is something about watching mindless nonsense that really helps bring a relaxing end to my day. I have always told myself that I have so much intelligence going on in my brain that I can't possibly watch a tv drama with good acting because there simply is no more room to process that sort of thing. It's a work-life balance.
I would say I'm the garden variety reality tv watcher - somewhere in the middle of Dance Moms and National Geographic March of the Penguins. My all-time favs are The Bachelor/Bachelorette, The Challenge (MTV), 19 Kids and Counting, and The Little Couple. I also really like shows on HGTV, Discovery, Travel but they really are not the ridiculous reality tv I am looking for at the end of the day. Once in a while, when I really need to relax, I will watch Honey Boo Boo - one show that literally makes me laugh out loud. So redic.
I Wanna Marry Harry got me hooked and then it was cancelled, really? I didn't think it was that bad! Lucky for me, Fox then released all remaining episodes online and On Demand. My friend Jill just text me the critics reviews of the show: "No one could possibly be watching the show except the losers of bets and people who had just died in front of their television sets." Other outlets proclaimed it was "the worst and weirdest" reality tv show. Annnnd, I had just watched an I Wanna Marry Harry marathon On Demand this weekend. Great, apparently the show was so stupid that I needed it this weekend - must have been a rough week at work.
