I did it - I crammed a few more shows into my life

With the new television season upon us, I figure I'll make an annual count of my official list of things that I watch. I've dropped some things off lately, which is VERY difficult for me to do - I'm a go down with the ship sort of girl (see: Lost), but things like Glee and Once Upon a Time are just completely unwatchable, so away with you! I've got better things to do.

These are shows I'm currently up to date on. Thank goodness they don't all air during the same months.

Castle

Downton Abbey

NBC
30 Rock

Well, that's 30 shows. 30. And I thought 24 was a lot. I also have people regularly telling me to watch other things that I don't really have any interest in - things like Modern Family, which has to have the worst advertising I have ever seen, and Parenthood, which I tried to watch but sort of loathed, despite Lauren Graham and Peter Krause.

And that doesn't even include the TV I watch at work.

There's more where that came from.

An Update

Since my last post, I've picked up some shows and dropped some. An update:

DROPPING OFF:
Once Upon a Time (ABC)
Pan Am (ABC)

PICKING UP:
Smash (NBC)
Being Human (Syfy)

There has only been one episode of Smash, sure, but the writing very much impressed me. Which is to say, the dialogue wasn't very good, but the pace of the episode, the characters, and the premise were all quite good, and I will watch again.

And there's more where that came from.

Admit that we are powerless against Television

I watch 24 television shows. I have a problem. I'd like to point out that this doesn't include the several shows I watch on DVD that I'm either not caught up on or didn't complete, or are done airing. It also doesn't include the shows I watch at my job, where I get paid to watch television.

We admitted we were powerless over television – that our schedule had become unmanageable.
