News from (Under) the Rock

"Must-see TV" that I, well, haven't seen:

• The OC
• Survivor
• Dancing with the Stars
• The "L" Word
• The Sopranos
• Queer as Folk
• Curb Your Enthusiasm
• Queer Eye for the Straight Guy
• Desperate Housewives
• Dark Shadows (shout out to cult TV)

"Must-see TV" that I saw, but I just don't get it:

• American Idol
• Fear Factor
• Wife Swap
• Trading Spouses
• America's Biggest Loser
• The Surreal Life

Perhaps I'm just too much of a geek. The last programs I watched were History's Mysteries on the History channel and A Haunting on Discovery. The only programs I actually try to take time to watch are Ghost Whisperer and House (but I still like Hugh Laurie better as Bertie Wooster, or in Blackadder). I can't watch Bones any more because I don't return from school in time. Alas.

Too clever? Too dumb?

I know, Shri, before you say it: too weird.
