Someone asked me to put up a list of things I like to watch on TV. Firstly, I have to admit that as far as the TV is concerned, there is complete despotism at my place. HM is the master of the remote control and I don't see the point in rebelling as I don't really mind watching the same things that he likes to watch. I have heard about epic remote control wars happening at various homes and I don't see the point. Why fight over something that can be watched on YouTube the next day? And why do you HAVE to see something or anything on the TV at all when you have books? Read something, I say. Anyway, all that aside, here is a list of sitcoms and series that I like to watch on the TV or the computer or wherever there is a screen that can transmit stuff.
1. Modern Family: This has got to be the most hilarious sitcom ever. I guffaw like an idiot when I watch this one. Need I say more? Oh and it won a ton of Emmys this year, so there.
2. Parks and Recreation: Full of delightful characters and abundant satire about the inner workings of the Local Government. Simply brilliant.
3. How I met Your Mother: I watch this only because it reminds me of 'Friends' and its kind of funny too. I'll watch anything as long as its funny.
4. Taarak Mehta Ka Ulta Chashma: For all those who think only English sitcoms can be funny, watch this.
5. Cheesy, badly dubbed Tamil/Telugu/Kannada/Malayalam movies with the most shocking dance moves and an array of weirdly dressed Actors and Actresses. They have the best Villains.
6. New Girl: I have a thing for Zooey Deschanel. I adore her.
7. 2 Broke Girls: Anybody who likes or is a superbly sarcastic person with a caustic sense of humour will love this sitcom. Plus it has Kat Dennings. What's not to like?
8. The Middle: This sitcom will be loved by young and old alike. It is heart-warming and funny at the right places.
9. Glee: Only because I love music and drama and this has both with a generous sprinkling of witty humour.
10. Gossip Girl: It is addictive and it has the best dressed and best looking people as the cast. It is a style and fashion guide in itself. It made me wear a hair band with a bow. Enough said.
11. Masterchef Australia: IT IS ABOUT FOOD! Do I need more reasons to watch it?
12: Food safari, Man versus Food, Feast Bazaar, Poh's Kitchen and every other food show ever created. If its about food, I WILL WATCH IT.
13. Phineas and Ferb, Courage the cowardly dog, Dexter's laboratory etc: Because you are never too old for cartoons.
14: Keeping up with the Kardashians: I don't know how to explain why I watch it. Maybe give it a go yourself and you'll know why.
This is quite the comprehensive list, isn't it? I do watch other stuff too. I like random documentaries on Discovery and Animal Planet or Nat Geo. But HM tends to watch all this more than I do.
So we're done here. Feel free to tell me what you like to watch! Toodles, Y'all!
My favorite is F.I.R. on SUB TV...I am like proud fan of Gopi-the-englishman..and his line-"wellll...what is tha problem is tha? Delhi mein airport Paalam is tha"..:D
ReplyDeleteHM (the better half) is a big fan of FIR! I love Chandramukhi Chautala!
DeleteQuite an exhaustive list indeed ;) i am not much into series , though i shared your love for FRIENDS long back . ( still being viewed regularly on my laptop ) . I end up watching more of movies , star movies and movies now being my favourite . Being a malayalee , i should say , we have more of simple, entertaining movies compared to the flamboyant ones bollywood has. plus cheesy movies are rarely a part of mollywood movies . they are more of a part of kannada and telugu movies . Loved the post . following you
