Thirty five shows!! That's practically a full time job.  Seriously?  And I wonder where all my time goes?!  In light of my search for a better me (thank you Oprah), I've decided to give up some of my TV watching.  I cannot go cold turkey, and there are a few shows that I watch that have a deeper meaning.  Ok, truth...there's no deeper means, I just really, really, really like these shows!

I've decided to remove the gory ones, I only want light-hearted TV in my life now. I've removed CSI, CSI Miami, Law & Order SVU. Down to 32 shows now. Much better!! Fine...I'll also remove all shows that you should be 16 to watch.  So bye bye 90210 and Gossip Girl.  I refuse to give up Glee!  Come on, the title says it all! Down to 30.  That's like a full time job with part time hours.  If TV was my job I'm sure I'd qualify for a good pension plan with those hours. 

Hmmm....Desperate Housewives is in it's last season, and I've been with it since the beginning so it would be ruin to leave them now.  Consumed is all about clutter, which I do not have, so I feel I can part with this.  And my lovely silverfox Anderson...though I love you, your show reminds me of a classy version of Jerry Springer.  I'll stick with you on CNN so you can go to. For the record, I do not record Anderson 360 on the DVR so that does not count towards my total recordings. 

I've lost count...down to 28 now?  Getting better!! Kitchen Nightmares can go, I see enough of Sexy-Chef on Master Chef and Hell's Kitchen....those aren't currently on so they don't count either.  Ok...27. That still seems insane?!

I have Ellen, The Talk and Rosie...I don't need three daytime talk shows. The Talk sucks since they got rid of Leah Remini so they can go.  Rosie is still way too high-strung for my new found zen life so she can go too. YAY Ellen...congrats you win!! 

25...

For the record, Two and a Half Men is recorded for Todd, and The Simpsons and Family Guy are for the kids (don't judge me).  FINE....The Simpsons and Family Guy can go...they are always on reruns anyway.  Phew....23!!

New Girl is a new show, I'm not totally addicted to that yet, so I will let that go.

22!!! 

Perfect Couples....I don't ever remember even watching this show!?  See ya later!

21!!

Ok...NEW LIST:

1. Modern Family (Too funny to ever give up)
2. Glee  (Music! HELLO!)
3. Survivor (The tribe has spoken...this stays as we watch it as a family)
4. Cougar Town (I plan to be a cougar in the near future...strictly educational)
5. Lie to Me (This is a good show for catching my soon-to-be teenage children)
6. Rookie Blue (It's based in Canada...I support my peeps!)
7. Desperate Housewives (Last season...)
8. Ellen (Have a little fun today! yah yah!)
9. Parenthood (So true to life...it's practically like watching a documentary)
10. Grey's Anatomy (Uhh...two words...McDreamy and McSteamy)
11. Private Practice (It's just on after Grey's...)
12. Raising Hope (HIGH-LA-RIOUS)
13. SNL (I really only watch for the Weekend Update, so it's like 20 mins, not 90)
14. Happy Endings (I just like the title)
15. Up All Night (Parenting show...again, educational!)
16. X Factor (Simon Cowell...come on!)
17. 2 Broke Girls (FUNNY!)
18. Two and Half Men (For Todd...this doesn't count!!)
19. Hart of Dixie (It has the chick from the OC, and I love her so I cant give it up)
20. Amazing Race 19 (Almost over anyway)
21. Oprah's Lifeclass (It's OPRAH, you can never have too much Oprah!)

Soooo, 21 shows.  I've now be downgraded to a part-time job.  Six of those are only 30 mins, so it's like I really only have 18 hours of TV. This is more manageable and I fast forward through the commercials so technically it's more like...uh, I suck at math. It's more like 18hrs of TV minus 20 mins of commercials per hour.  Sooo, you figure it out!!

Now, what to do with all my spare time....
OHH LOOK!!! Youtube!!
