Sometimes I am convinced that I will know nothing because of a topic and find out I do - lol.<br /><br />Lin, I couldn't even get into Survivor in the beginning. I felt like such an outcast because everyone I knew was watching and simply had no interest.<br /><br />Catherine, Glee is one of the non-reality shows I MUST see. Love it.<br /><br />Jill, I like HouseHunters too. I've spent a lot of time watching when I should be doing things like cleaning, writing, laudry.<br /><br />Alicia - boo hiss on your cable company. How dare they get rid of one of the best channels there is.<br /><br />Jennifer, I totally forgot about Idol (probably because it isn't on at the moment). But that is a must watch for me. I am very curious about how the season is going to go with no Simon and the judges. It could be interesting. But, I will miss Simon.<br /><br />Terri, I have never seen the Amazing Race. I will have to check it out next time it is on. I know my sister loves it.<br /><br />Shiela, you are stronger than I, or have more refined tastes, I love Project Runway. I will admit, I fast forward through some stuff. I like to hear the challenge, see what they plan and then see what they come up with. The middle part, where they are not alwasy nice to each other, I can do without and have fast forwarded through. Again, my interest is how they do with the challenge they were given. <br /><br />MissLynda, HGTV is one of my favorite channels. I've gotten some great ideas from watching the makeovers. In the past, when I have not been motivated to clean my house, I will turn on HGTV on Saturday morning, and they are rearrangeing, throwing stuff out, redoing rooms. It always motivated me to getting moving and keep my house in order - lol.Amy DeTrempehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04785965181851533070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-78610279733102547222010-09-21T20:02:09.285-05:002010-09-21T20:02:09.285-05:00We love most to the Food Network competition shows...We love most to the Food Network competition shows - - - and Bobby Flay's Throwdown.

Unfortunately my dear cable company decided that clearly too many people were satisfied with the current line up and therefore changed it compeletly- removing Bravo from me. Ripping it out of my cold dead hands is more like it, but anyway, I have missed my Top Chef tremendously. Cupcake Wars is a good one too! My 7 year old loves to watch all of the cake shows with me- that may be the sweetest part! ;)aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12258131603482525764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-45184218311650440182010-09-21T12:17:45.499-05:002010-09-21T12:17:45.499-05:00My favorite show is House Hunters on HGTV.

And I'm all about the shows like Project Runway and Top Chef, too. (Yes, you'll need to go to the gym more often after watching Top Chef: Just Desserts.) I have to admit to a fascination with shows like Survivor and Big Brother, though. While there is no inherent talent required in order for a competitor to do well on either of these shows, they give a great glimpse into the human psyche. You really learn what makes people tick, what people are willing to do for money or to win, etc. I've taken a lot of inspiration for characters for my writing from these reality shows, because they are real people put into extraordinary situations.Catherine Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05830640955594808304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884411045598601037.post-84541515089759806232010-09-21T09:48:59.662-05:002010-09-21T09:48:59.662-05:00well, I don't watch reality shows at all.
