Animal Precinct on Animal Planet. It amazes me how badly some people treat their pets.

Don't know if this was mentioned but I was hooked on Temptation Island. I wish I could find out what the contestants are doing today.

Also Outback Jack - is he still with the girl he picked? I would love some updates.

I love, love, love Blind Date! The kooks matched with the straight-edged partners, along with the snarky comments in the balloons just crack me up.

There is only one show that I occasionally watch that I'm ashamed of *laugh* and that is [[My super sweet 16]]

Yes, they got married in September. There was an article in People magazine.

ITA! Used to have this on season pass til they re-ran it too often. I mean, it's not funny at the point you know where the snark's coming in. Lol. Good stuff, though.

I also used to watch the old Love Connection when that was on... almost a forerunner to reality tv in that they paired 2 people up for real and got the rundown after. And Chuck with his "two and two" compulsion. Ha

I like any of the old 70s shows (the real ones) if I run across those. Someone mentioned Kim Possible - when we didn't have cable I used to tune in to that on a Sat. morning, that was decent.

I also consider a lot of these reality shows 'guilty pleasures' since I'm not sure I'm enhancing my life by watching those LOL. I don't like the competitive ones, I like the 'candid' ones. But then I'm not a competitive type, but I'm very curious about other people deep down. So it's kind of feeding that compulsion in me - to know stuff I don't need to know. Lol

I can't think of any outright trash tv offhand that I'm into but I'm sure there's something! During that no cable tv time I also watched Cheaters sometimes but then it bothered me, people getting hurt for real it seemed like a mean setup. Then other times totally faked. So at that point I tuned out - neither intrigues me. That was before the alleged stab incident.

I kinda like the movie Showgirls (but have only seen it once). I'm trying to think of a tv equiv of that, and I can't.

Right now my guilty pleasure is "Canada's Worst Driver". It's on Monday nights at 10 pm on Discovery Canada. As someone who has never learned to drive, and becomes more afraid of it with each passing year, I'm getting a great amount of joy out of watching people who are probably worse drivers than I could ever dream of being.
