watch me

I neglected to shoot pix of the daily activity which takes up the majority of my waking hours. So here's a rundown of what I subject myself to in front of the idiot box in the name of entertainment:

-- Jewel In The Palace: Now watching it for the second time on cable, even though I know exactly what's gonna happen. I even know how to sing the theme song already...and it's in Korean.
-- War And Beauty: TVB drama set in the Forbidden City. But being the Hong Kong version of Jewel In The Palace, of course it is sexed up with four royal concubines trying to out-slut and out-bitch each other. Only three more episodes to the finale. I'm gonna be so bereft when it ends.
-- Triumph In The Skies: TVB drama about pilots with incredibly bad dubbing when the pilots have to speak to the control tower in English.
-- Sea Of Love: TVB drama about people working on a cruise ship.
-- White Flame: TVB drama about trainee nurse. What can I say? My evil twin and I share a love which does not dare to be named...we adore TVB dramas!
-- Twin Of Brothers: Yet another TVB drama with a title that cracks me up. Also in the subtitles is something known as the Evil Supreme Sarira. If you really need to know, the show is about two orphans who roam the "giang hu" and master some immortal skills.
-- House: The best show on TV. Why can't my doc be more like Dr House?
-- Love Airways: The "best" show on TV. Why can't my doc be more like Dr Love?
-- Nigella Bites: Food porn at its finest. I wanna be Nigella when I grow up.
-- Martin Yan's Quick & Easy: His entire vocab consists of "And then...And then...Beautiful...And then...Beautiful..." but his recipes are not bad.
-- Designer Guys: They make it look so easy, but of course it is easy when you have an unlimited budget and access to a nail gun.
-- Design For Living: The show sucks and so does the host, but I'm a sucker for decor shows.
-- Debbie Travis: One of the best home makeover shows, especially when compared to the crappy While You Were Out. I want Debbie to visit my home too.
-- One Tree Hill: Gave up after a few episodes. Too much teen angst. But I'll admit the boy is cute.
-- Everwood: This boy is cute too.
-- Gilmore Girls: Formerly my all-time fave, but now I'm tired of motormouth Lorelai.
-- America's Next Top Model: It's no fun cos I've already seen the final episode when I was in New York. And I'm underwhelmed by the quality of the contestants.
-- The Apprentice: Ditto.
-- Reruns of Globe Trekker, Amazing Vacation Homes, Travel Hit List, Beach Breaks, Planet Food and any other Discovery Travel & Living channel show.
-- Since I Met You: C-grade Korean drama shown every week day at 6pm, which is my family's dinner time, so we just watch for the sake of having something to on TV.
-- Survivor and The Amazing Race: I feel almost obligated to watch the "direct off satellite" telecasts in the day, just because I can. But I'm bored by them already.
