I dont watch a ton of TV there are a few shows I do love most are late night after the kids go to bed cable shows- American Horror Story- SOA- Shameless. But I do love the show Parenthood and I have found the show The River- I have to admit I have totally been sucked in. My question is after the kids go to bed what do you watch that is just for you?

What can I do next?

When i was in the US I used to watch "Say yes to the dress", "A baby story", Adoption Story", "Ten years younger" and all that girly stuff...ah, also American Idol and "Cheaters" (I, know, very trashy! :-0) I was just amazed at how reality shows can go that far and, yet, how entertaining that was!

Chopped. I love that show but but kids don't so I'm glad they show the new ones at 10pm or else I would never get to watch it.

Ghost Hunters (International too!) and Raising Hope. I try not to get sucked into my husband's shows (SOA, NCIS, 2 1/2 Men) but it always happens so I guess I'll count them. :-)

The River, but only when husband is off.. it's CREEPY! And Shameless and House of Lies are great.. then pretty much anything on ABC, Castle, Grey's, Private Practice.. Criminal Minds, Person of Interest. I work hard all day so at 10, the kids are down and it's just me and the TV (except when husband is off which is about 50% of the time) I'm not lazy I'm just home alone a lot and have an amazing DVR haha.

Parenthood is my favorite. I also watch Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Parks & Rec, The Office and all three CSIs. I don't watch them the nights they come on though. I watch a couple here and there before they expire online.

We only do Netflix, so we don't have current seasons.

The Gate (SOO upset they only had one season, it was awesome)
Teen Wolf (hangs head in shame)
The Office
Walking Dead
Survivors
Daybreak

There are more we watch from time to time, but those are the current series. When husband isn't around, I love things like
North and South
Middlemarch
Downton Abbey
pretty much any bbc/masterpiece theater/Jane Austen type of series

Jersey shore....Tragic to watch but it makes me feel better about be a REAL human being....and not...well.....Whatever they are.

Everything else I watch on TV they normally enjoy too....Like Survivor, Big Brother when it is on, Mystery at the Museum, Ancient Aliens, Decoded and any of the other investigative stuff like that...they love it.

They could also watch Dumbest stuff on wheels, Ridiculousness and Nitro circus all night long...And since we only really have one TV in the common area and I hate having two different TV's on in such a small house...mom usually gets over ruled by the men:(

I do not mind.....I get pay back when it is a Jersey Shore night:) hahaha which makes the rest of the house cringe!!

answers from Salt Lake City on

Since we don't have regular TV any more, I watch what's available on netflix or PBS streaming, so I'm not exactly current in my preferences. I tend to go for either highbrow or guilty pleasure viewing. I just finished through season 2 of Downton Abby, and I will start the most recently available season of True Blood soon. I also watch Dr. Who and Torchwood, and pretty much anything Joss Whedon has had a hand in.

I love the show "Revenge". It's not appropriate for my kids to watch, and my husband hates it because it's kind of like a trashy soap opera, but I think it's fabulous.
