Guilty Pleasure TV

[doc_3]

I know we all watch Bones, and several of us watch Fringe, but what's your guilty pleasure show?  Mine would have to be the new 90210 - it's like reliving your youth, only with better hair. 

(Have to watch something until November ...)

First off *dies of love for your icon*

Secondly... hmmmm... let me think. I feel like I haven't watched much telly at all lately. Sometimes I feel like Bones IS my guilty pleasure TV... no-one I know, besides my sister, in RL seems to know it exists!!

I have started watching Fringe too. We have seen up to ep 2 over here, but I have that one on my Sky+ box ready to watch so no spoilers! I did enjoy the pilot.

DH and I are watching The Wire season 1. We bought the box set off lerdo's suggestion and are loving it - so not a guilty pleasure though, it is fantastically well written and very, very cool ;)

Still wracking my brains... I feel like catching the odd ep of Buffy or Angel on SciFi is quite a guilty pleasure. I've been doing that quite alot lately.

There is so not much on at the moment here. Oh - talking of reality TV though, which you did on another comment I think, I'm currently hooked on Strictly Come Dancing which is our version of Dancing With The Stars. I adore the dances and the pretty dresses - I think I relive my childhood through it or something! So that's quite a guilty pleasure at the mo.

ETA: LOL at the new 90210 and re-living your youth but with better hair. I remember watching the original show with my sister - we were kind of awe-struck by the shiny Americaness I think :)

Yay yay! I'm thrilled The Wire has gained two new fans. :) It's a show that deserves to be watched.

It totally has! I keep meaning to say actually. We watched one just last night :)

I'm finding it a little difficult to separate the fact that the same guy plays similar roles in this and Fringe right now though - the black boss dude!

Yup, Lance Reddick. I was thrilled to see him getting more work. :)

He is SCARY in Fringe ... you get a feeling that he's a slightly softer character in The Wire, so far anyway. The odd peek under the armour ;)

Glad you're getting to watch Fringe - let me know when you get through a few eps and we'll squee over Josh Jackson.

Don't worry - here in America we were all awe-struck by the kids from Beverly Hills back then too. 90210 was pretty far removed from the Southeastern US.
