What are your "guilty pleasures" when it comes to TV programs, and why? Here are a few of mine: Judge Judy: I DVR this show every single day. I have respect for dominant women, even moreso if they're intelligent, and Judy fits the bill. On top of that, she calls idiots idiots and is rarely wrong in her assessment of people and their intent. And let's face it, putting stupid people in their place never gets old. Maury: I get just as angry when watching this show as I do giddy, truly an enigma. How many people in the United States really don't know who fathered their babies? How many people find a condom in their bed and still need a lie detector test to prove their significant other is cheating? And yet, I can't stop watching. Jerry Springer: I used to watch this back in the day too, when Jerry used to have shows about the KKK and its members, back when it was more of a "talk" program than now. It's since degenerated into a show about sexual debauchery that may or may not be real. I watch this for the same reason as Maury: it's a character study about the general degradation of society, the people within it, and morality as a whole, and it helps me remember that my stupid daily problems really aren't all that bad.

I used to watch Jerry Springer back in high school, in the mid-90s when it was at the height of its popularity, but eventually grew tired of it. True be told, I don't really have guilty pleasures. I've never really been one of those people who are like "Oh, this show is so terrible but I have to watch because I just can't look away." I know several people who will watch the worst stuff on TV (Operation Repo, Jersey Shore, Storage Wars, etc.) but are like "It's so awful, how can you not watch?" I guess I'd rather just spend my time watching things I actually like and get something out of besides laughing at their badness. If I watch something, it's because I like it, and I'm not going to feel "guilty" for doing so. The only "reality show" I watch regularly is History's Pawn Stars, because you actually get some historical/educational knowledge out of it with a lot of the really cool stuff that comes into the store.

RAY DONOVAN if it weren't for Jon Voight (JON VOIGHT?!) i would have left this show but he is so good! ARROW It shamelessly rips off the story line from BATMAN BEGINS and recycled lotsa stuf but... I find it compelling. And, i do not now why. Maybe someone here can tell me what it is about this show that makes me like it brm
