Manuel’s comments from the TV Talk group.

Funny how set you become in your ways.
At one time all my favorite shows were on one of the three networks, now a days the only show I still watch regularly is the Simpsons on FOX (if you can call it a network)

Lately with all the election stuff I have started watching CNN more and more. I cant stand FOX and finally decided I was no longer going to watch their news.

At one time I though I couldnt live without MTV or VH1 now I hardly ever view them.

Carol Burnett show by far

I wouldnt mind being an assistant to her assistants either.

I'm not sure if Kathy Grifith's "My life on the D List" counts as a reality show, but I really really enjoy it.

She makes me laugh until it hurts.

I liked all of them.
I could never get into Deep Space Nine.

I must have seen them out of sequence or something, but I never found out who were the bad guys. They kept mentioning the "Dominion" but it was never clear to me who or why they are fighting.

I cant explain why, but I became hooked on Project Runway recently.

When I saw shows from other seasons, I became even more curious to see the current season.

This is totally outside my realm of experience, but I enjoy watching the creative process as to what makes good fashion. As I guy, I loathe shopping with girlfriends/sisters because I dont think they really want my opinion, they just want me to agree with their choice.
I also like the interaction between the contestants and I look forward to seeing what Tim Gunn thinks about a particular item.


I thought I would like "The Look"
but I find it extremely annoying and I have skipped it completely.

There are so many reality shows now.
Which ones hold your interest and which ones leave you yawning?

Recently one of our local TV stations has started to rerun the original Star Trek at 3:AM.

Of course I've seen all the episodes since I was a kid, but I was surprised to learn someone has reedited all scenes in space.

Thanks to computer graphics, the Enterprise no longer looks like a plastic model. I am curious to see the rest of the series to check out what they've added.

Recently I rewatched the episode where Spock has to go back to Vulcan to "see" his wife. They added a few new establishing shots of Vulcan...very beautiful. Also when Spoke is viewing pictures of his wife as a young girl....they no longer look like poloroids.

Can you guess from looking at my logo?



I have heard great things about the new Battlestar Gallactica, but I have yet to see a show.

I dont find these shows interesting anymore.
Yawnnnnnn!

I love The Simpsons:
Even after all these years I still find them relevent.

Ive also become a fan of Sponge Bob. I also cant say why.

I like Charlie Rose.
I dont watch all his shows, but I find he asks inteligent questions from a wide variety of guests. Guests will usually be someone in politics or a new author or even someone from entertainment.
