rotting our brains

We all love TV, but there aren't that many shows that you absolutely can't miss. However, there are those few that people fall in love with and MUST watch every week. With our summer schedule being so flexible we have found more opportunities to watch TV than throughout the school year, especially during the day and later at night. (And by late at night, I mean later than 9:00!)

So two new shows we can't miss are Mad Men on AMC Thursday nights at 9:00 and Ice Road Truckers on the History Channel Sunday nights at 9:00. If you haven't heard of either of these, go check them out...

We're already also glued to the second season of Design Star on HGTV, which comes on Sunday nights at 8:00. They've only had the first episode (Making the Cut), so they have chosen their eleven new contestants and tomorrow night will be the first "real" episode. Other than these three, a must watch for us is The Office on NBC Thursday nights. (even the reruns are hysterical) We can't wait for this season!

If you're not busy this weekend turn on AMC and you can catch Mad Men along with the complete Godfather series. They are playing 'round the clock all weekend long. And there have only been two Mad Men episodes, so if you missed them, you can catch up pretty quickly. (One great thing about MM is their lack of commercials...twenty solid minutes of show before breaking, so only two breaks within the hour!)

If you ever find yourself visiting Greater Ada, a must-watch local show is Advantage Auctions (formerly known as Bargain World). Thrifty, Smelly, Sometimes profitable, always entertaining!

Please share any of your favorite shows with us. Everyone loves great TV!
