30 days of television: Day 16

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show

1. The new series of V. Because it is really not very good, even with nice special effects. There are two reasons I hang in - I enjoy the snark way, way too much and I'm seriously hoping the priest gets killed off. OK, three reasons - I want to see how long it takes before someone notices that FakeBrit has an Australian accent, if ever.

2. Midsommer Murders. OK, I have to be in the right mood to watch this, otherwise it irritates me. But when I am in the right mood it's hysterically funny to watch.

3. Anything with Agatha Christie's in the title. Not least because the letters section in the Green Guide positively teems with people pointing out mistakes or changes from the book the following week.

4. Head Case. I blame Dean entirely for this one.

5. Super Group - So completely bad and yet I'm still watching it. Again, this is entirely Dean's fault. At least I'm pointing and laughing - he's mostly in awe of the musicians. I just giggle a lot at the hair mostly.

I enjoy Midsomer Murders and usually save it for when I've got a pile of hand sewing to do. I tend to watch them across at least two sessions and without looking at the screen often. This does make it a bit hard to figure out tell the different suspects apart. I complained to T that the casting agent fills the show with identical pasty white English countryfolk and he called me a racist.

Haha....the pasty white Brits are usually well known character actors, so not only are the victims always the really irritating characters they're never the most well known of the guest 'stars' - that's the murderer :0) I love this show its so entertaining & relaxing...televisual meditation :) someone made the point that there's no mystery regarding the high crime rates on jersey and in midsummer...it's John Nettles...
