I get up in the mornings and hit the treadmill. Not literally, just go there for some exercise. I like being able to watch something on TV; it makes exercise less heinous.
Now that we have Netflix I have been watching some old series' that I never watched while they were on TV. I am also getting a lot of ribbing from my family. I got hooked on Veronica Mars. It is a teen show about a girl, Veronica, who's dad was Sheriff but is now a PI. She does a lot of sleuthing with him. While she is in High School she ends up doing a lot of sleuthing for her peers.
My family likes to tease me that I am watching a show for teenagers. My husband asked me "didn't you have enough angst in High School?". They don't even have to listen to it when I am on the treadmill. My hubby rigged up a really long chord for the headphone jack and I use my headphones while I am getting sweaty.
I like dramas, mysteries, cop shows etc. I think I finally decided why I liked Veronica Mars so much, aside from the fact that I actually enjoyed the characters and story lines, it's that a show geared toward teens isn't filled with sex scenes and foul language. I could get my dose of mystery and intrigue at a PG level.
So, I have decided that they can rib all they want. I will keep on watching teenage shows if I enjoy them. Besides, you are only as old as you feel. Maybe that's why I enjoy it!!
Since I finished Veronica Mars I am now watching Friday Night Lights. It is about a small Texas town that loves nothing but High School Football. Because they are in Texas there is a lot of prayer on this show too. Although it is a family show it is also classified at a teen show which will make it prime for family ribbing.
Bring it on!
I LOVED Veronica Mars!! Very sad about how it ended though... wish they would have come out with at least 1 more episode to tie up the loose ends.
