What are your guilty pleasure TV shows that you are too embarrassed to tell people! Well, actually you can't be too embarrassed to tell, cause I want to know!
Mine are:
Super Sweet 16 on C4, Saturday at 7PM. It's a reality TV show about the most self-centred, snobby, materialistic, spoilt brat teenage girls who are planning their 16th birthday parties. They whinge, cry and stamp their feet to get whatever they want, making their parents spend upwards of $200,000 dollars on their parties, and on top of that, they always get given a $100,000 + brand new car. They usually wear really expensive revealing dresses, have massive birthday cakes and only the coolest people can come to their party. They have bouncers that kick people that aren't on the list out of their parties. It's so cringe worthy, but I just can't stop watching it!!
The girls on it are so awful. They say things like 'This day is the most important day of my life!!! And I will have whatever I want and if anybody tries to ruin it, I will kill them'
Their parents are run ragged trying to do everything their spoilt brats ask for.
Why can't I stop watching it?!?!?!?!

See, now I want to watch it too! I'm a sucker for those sorts of programmes.
If DD is asleep at the right time, I have to turn on reruns of MASH at 11.30am on weekdays. Don't get to watch them much though.
Real guilty pleasure: Extreme Makeover Home Edition (just so cheesey but nice to watch!) and Survivor. I thought I was over it, but I'm not.

I've started watching re-runs of MASH too and the show before it - Quintuplets. Have been known to watch a few episodes on the Disney/Nick channels too
Probably should also admit that not only do I watch Short St but also if I'm not busy I catch the daily reruns even though I've seen them!

Willie watches Family Feud every night. If he gets home too late for a shower before it starts he sits in his stinking work clothes and watches it. And him and Maya do the sound effects when they get the wrong answers.

I always watched Maternity Ward when I was pregnant and it freaked me out! Couldn't stop watching it though, it always made me cry too. Wish it was still on.
Extreme Makeover definitely makes me cry.

Hahaha Murray does this as well. He gets home and sits stinking in his work clothes while watching it, answering all the questions, getting annoyed with the contestants who get them all wrong and then bitching and moaning about how he hates the programme so much and can't believe that 'I' watch it.

Ummm, well I have a few, but at the moment it is UKTV - Family Affairs I think it is called, and George and Mildred....
Then there is the typical everyday programmes - Deal or No Deal, Disney Channel - Kim Possible ROCKS, H2O, Shorty St, Fair Go and when I get a minute, which is not very often, Home and Away!

Kim Possible isn't on anymore?!?! Noooo!! (Altho I did find it weird now that her and Ron are boyfriend/girlfriend) - Gosh I'm sad!!!
Anyway, Home and Away and Shorty St are my guilty pleasures... oh, and ANTM when it is on. Hate reality TV but can't seem to tear myself away from bitchy models... oh, and bitchy chefs! Quite enjoy Top Chef as well
Heyyyy and Outrageous Fortune is almost back. Can't wait! There is no guilt in proclaiming I'm a huge fan of that show

hey dannichick I am also a gilmore girls addict. I missed it last week and was gutted. When DF went to Europe without me last year I kept myself company with Lorelai and Rory and caught up on the first few seasons. Sad is it may sound I got through those months before we met up again quite well.
On a more grown up thing I LOVE house and boston legal.
