And, I like Law and Order and the show Doc as well, and have started watching and liking a new show "Jack and Bobby". When I watch t.v. I seem to be drawn to CBC Newsworld (24 news channel with a variety of segments on current affairs) or the political channel. But, I confess to watching re-runs of MASH, Cheers and the Golden Girls from time to time. As for reality t.v., it, to me, seems to be so far from reality that I find it embarrassing, frustrating and unbearable to watch. Perhaps I am naive, but the way people behave on those shows is repugnant and really unbelievalble to me. Reality t.v. seems to bring out the worst in people, and I just have a hard time watching how mean, ruthless and cruel the participants on those show can be just to win some money. It's sick, and I just can't imagine any of those people behaving like that in real life. It seems staged to me, with the most successful participants being the ones who exhibit the most reprehensible behaviour. But, I am not a competitive person. Maybe if I was competitive, I wouldn't find the behaviour so disturbing.
