How many of these programmes do you end up watching regularly?? Multiple Choice available. Feel free to expose your guilty secret on others not in the poll.

Forgot the NONE option, if a mod can add it, great. If not you'll just have to post on here so we know you're better than the rest of us.

NONE option now added

How soon is now?
Eastenders is a guilty pleasure, I know its crap and I openly laugh at how bad it is, but I do make a bit of an effort to watch it - as yet I've not stooped to resorting to "watch again" if I miss one, but you never know.....
And I watch Strictly Come Dancing by proxy, Mrs Scooter loves it and therefore its on - and as with everything, i've started to find myself commenting on the efforts of the "celebreties", not that I know diddly squat about dancing

None of those. In fact I like to think I don't watch crap. The closest thing to crap I watch is probably come dine with me, but I think it's awesome!

I occasionally watch X-Factor, mainly for the comedy auditions in the early shows.

I'm a celebrity get me out of here should get done for false advertising and certainly never makes an appearance on my TV

Only Strictly Come Dancing, due to the girlfriend and the mum. Plus, the standard of judging is roughly 19348583 times better than X Factor so can make interesting watching occasionally.

Typical Strictly judging (any of them except Bruno):

"Your feet were not quite pointed enough, the pirouette was slightly mis-timed, however your balance during the final coda was excellent."

Typical X Factor judging:

"You've got the X Factor, you'll go very far because you have the likeability factor."
"That was without doubt, THE BEST performance I have ever seen."

I have never EVER heard properly critiqued judging on X Factor. All 4 of them just talk inane bollocks.

X factor.

I clicked on Corrie and Eastenders too, because the girlfriend watches them, therefore I sit through them. I can't say they are ever on if she goes out though.

Why are the programs you have on your list 'crap'?? 10m+ viewers would tell you otherwise.

None.

I have been watching a new american show on line. It's called "Glee". It may be considered crap TV, but it is hugely successful over there. It is coming to E4, the pilot episode will air in December, then the show will start proper early next year (They did a similar thing where the pilot episode aired after the American Idol finale, then the series started proper in September).

It is set in an American high school following the fortunes of the Glee club (a club that gets together and performs music numbers). Yes, it is a musical TV show. It is awesome and I can't really do the show justice.

Be interested to know what you consider crap if you rate all those programmes as being anything but inane or crap.

I watch X-Factor and I'm a "celebrity". X-Factor is mainly down to the girlfriend always watching it but I do enjoy the judges bitching and arguing, even though it's staged. The number of adverts is so frustrating though.

I do enjoy watching I'm a "Celebrity" though, mainly for the trials rather than the in between bits. Ant and Dec are quite funny too.

Have no interest in Strictly or the soaps.

I REFUSE to watch any of the above any more having seen enough in the past to not want to bother, however Corrie is the one I'd object to least.

By the way after last nights showing Top Gear can go on the list, totally overplaying the same "hiarious" japery jokery. I liked it when they attached rockets to things and didn't try too hard to be the mad crazy funsters they think they are. :censored: Geeks.
