I remember when I was a kid and every Saturday night we'd watch The Muppet Show, and then later on we'd come aboard The Love Boat, after which we'd head straight out to Fantasy Island. It may have been a kitschy evening, but it was an evening of new television shows--none of which anyone could say was remotely "reality."
Tonight, after a fairly busy week, Christopher and I are spending the evening in, and we've spent the past two hours scrolling through the channels in a desperate search for something to watch. We spent some time watching home makeover shows on TLC, but then decided that we wanted something a little less angst-full.
We passed some Disney movies, NASCAR, college football and the baseball playoffs. But we really wanted something with a little bite and--if possible--just a little bit of a plot. There are a couple of movies on that would have been good, if we had caught them at the beginning, but who wants to watch a thriller like Rebecca after missing the first 30 minutes?
So we're watching DVDs and playing on our computers. Yeah. We really know how to live it up on a Saturday night, don't we?
