I personally am opposed to Netflix. I like watching current television series and on Netflix the options are what I consider "old" and not current. I like watching live television aka tuning into a certain station at a certain time to watch a show when it originally airs. Okay with the exception for my marathon CSI DVD watching. Yes, the episodes are old and the first season is from Fall 2000 but I get a free pass right? So yes I binge watch CSI, my current watching schedule is Season 1, then a jump to season 9, next season 7, then 8, then 2 and 3. I skipped to season 9 because I wanted to see the last episode with Grissom and also I didn't have season 2 and 3 at the time...so it all makes sense now. I really like the Grissom and Sara Romance (GSR). I think they were made for each other. Fun fact the character of Sara Sidle was written to be a love interest for Grissom however, they didn't actually enter in a relationship until season 7. Anyways I could talk about CSI all day but the article is about my tv picks so let's get back to that...
I think I have great taste in my television watching choices so here is my current television picks
Monday night (the night that I consider the WORST night for television)
- Celebrity Apprentice at 8pm on Global--this is the first time I've watched it and it's entertaining. However, it drags on and on. It should be 1.5 hours because they are in the boardroom for an hour and the apprentices bashing each other should be restricted to half an hour.
- That's it for Monday. I didn't like Gotham I found it boring, too graphic and confusing.
Tuesday
- Pretty Little Liars 8pm on M3--scary, breathtaking and this season really creepy and morbid. But I am a super fan having read all 18 books and I have never missed an episode. The liars fashion is on point too.
- Degrassi 9 pm on MTV--the Canadian cult classic is a must watch for me. Although with the new actors and their HORRIBLE acting I just want to see the characters that were in Grade 9 when I started watching graduate then I'm not sure I'll tune in anymore. However, the show is the best at representing CURRENT teen issues including this season's sexting scandal. Issues also seen in this season include: date rape, suicide, drug use and teen pregnancy.
- Real housewives of Beverly Hills--Very entertaining and I used to watch RHW of Vancouver. I love realty tv its entertaining and hilarious. I also find it interesting how other people live their lives. With the new additions to the cast its going to be great season. This is a show I wish was two hours because it feels like an hour isn't enough.
- See my review of YTV's Open heart.
Wednesday
- Dragon's Den 8pm on CBC--Love this show. My mom introduced me to it to teach me how to value a business since I was in fashion design and I told her I was scared of going bankrupt. The new cast member Wek is hilarious however, the show has lost some spark with the departure of the infamous Mr. Wonderful aka Kevin O'Leary. The show is still very entertaining and keeps my attention through the hour.
- The Middle 8pm on City TV--This show was discovered by my family eavesdropping on a guy recommend the series to a friend on a bus at Disney World. This show is so relatable to my family from the teenage boy Axl, the teenage girl Sue and the try-really hard mother, Frankie. It's hilarious and the only series my family all watches together.
- Law and Order: SVU 9 pm on CTV 2--I love this show, even after 16 seasons the writers still have original and gripping storylines. It keeps my attention the whole hour and I look forward to it every week.
- Say Yes to the Dress Canada 10pm on W--Cheesy and amateur but I cannot stop watching.
Thursday
- How to get away with murder 10pm on CTV--see the past review on my blog!
- other than that...nothing
Friday
- Shark Tank 9pm on CTV2--I learn a lot from it and the hour goes by so fast. I love it. Also I tune in just to see what Mr. Wonderful is going to say. Also it's interesting what people have come up with as inventions.
- Blue Bloods 10 pm on CTV--I have been watching it since it returned and I really like the plot involving the view of a law practicers including the DA sister, the two brothers that are cops and the father who is the police chief. The plots are also gripping.
Sunday
- CSI 10pm on CTV--the writers always out done themselves and after 15 seasons still keep me at the edge of my seat with each episode. Additionally, with the departure of Nick Stokes at the end of the season every episode this season counts.
- Girls 10pm on HBO--always both entertaining and cringe-worthy. My mom hates but I like it. I consider it very educational about sex and relationships even more so than sex ed. Although they say the characters represent our generation I don't feel that. Sexy Adam Driver doesn't hurt either.
Every week day: Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy 7pm and 7:30pm--I have a gift of answering puzzles and I know a lot of random stuff...
