Random September TV Watching

There are some of you out there that are addicted to certain shows and have to be in front of the TV when they come on, or the world may come to an end. I am not one of those people but there are some shows out there worth making time for and here is my short list.

Shark Tank

This is a new show that I have decided to sink my teeth into and it hasn’t disappointed in my opinion. There are plenty of awkward moments as bad business people get ripped apart before your very eyes. It also has those moments where you catch yourself yelling at the TV begging for the person to take the offer only to see them crash and burn. This past week there was a guy who came in and took the sharks by storm. I wish I knew his name off-hand but if anyone saw it they know exactly who I am speaking about. This guy went toe to toe with every person in the room and came out a winner. Great TV. I think this show has a decent life span in front of it and I will be one of those watching each week.

Biggest Loser

I will admit that this pick has some sappy moments and those little kitchen tips turned mini commercials are kind of annoying, but the show has legs. It is widely popular for a reason and makes for some great TV. I personally love the stories each of these people have and how they must battle themselves to overcome their weight issues. It seems recently the show has gotten away from the “game play” aspect with contestants caring about each other rather than just getting a payday. It is nice to see but we all know we love to see people get stabbed in the back. This season I am pulling for team orange with the dude from last season. I love the fight that kid shows each week! The Biggest Loser will be running until someone decides to pull the plug because I can’t imagine the ratings ever dropping on this giant success.

Office

A great show with the perfect cast for this sort of comedy. I know some people that just don’t get this show and to me that is what makes this one great. You don’t watch this and say it was just OK. You either totally love it or aren’t into it at all. In writing that is hard to accomplish and still be a huge success. Steve Carell is a genius pure and simple. He is the master of making the uncomfortable moment laugh out loud funny. How many times have you sat there with an uncomfortable feeling watching him interact only to burst out laughing? Great acting! You take all this and sprinkle in some Dwight Shrute and you got yourself a major hit on your hands.

So, these are the three things I am into right now besides watching an inappropriate amount of football games. I am sure there are other great shows on but I am a Sagittarius, so focusing my attention is kind of a sore spot for me. If I sit down long enough to get hooked on something else you all will be the first to know about it.
