Aside from the news, what else do you regularly watch on television? Do you watch mini-series like Band Of brothers, CSI, Smallville, 24? Do you like to watch Telenovela (Marimar), Fantaserye (Zaido/Mulawin/panday), AXN and HBO Movies? For those that doesnt know, a telenovela defined in Wikipedia as a limited-run television serial melodrama of the type made famous in Latin America. The word is a portmanteau of tele, short for television, and novela ("novel/soap opera"). Telenovelas are essentially soap operas in miniseries format. A Fantaserye or Telefantasya on the other hand is a genre of Philippine television which mixes soap opera, fantasy, myth, magic and enchantment. Just Curious, SFC

I don't watch very much TV. The shows I do watch are Lost, CSI, and House. I also like to watch movies sometimes if a good one is on.

My husband and I like to watch a lot of news programs on CNN or the BBC. He likes to watch the Sci-fi network, and we both like sit coms such as Frasier, and cartoons like The Simpsons. The rest of the time we prefer to listen to the radio.

I really enjoy The Closer, Saving Grace, Cold Case, Numbers, Dexter and Supernatural. Those are pretty much the only shows I watch nowadays. I tend to watch mostly movies on dvds rented online.

HI Muelitz, [i]I love watching news and some teleserye..LOL! Since I have no TFC here, I am just watching online...it's my way also to feel like I am just home! LOL! I love watching HBO too but this time that I am hooked in Mylot, after 15 minutes watching news in the morning, I will no longer turn on the TV back! I prefer doing something online right now and if I am bored, I will just search any videos at you tube![/i]

I actually try to avoid the news. There's usually nothing good to see and the horrible things they televise just upset me if I cannot do anything about them. But I do watch a few things on a more-or-less regular basis. I'm not a big TV fan, so I don't get upset if I miss one or more shows. My son and husband got me into the habit of watching weird stuff like Family Guy and Futurama, both animated shows, in case you don't get them there. I'm also a big Sci Fi fan so I watch a lot of that, Stephen King movies and the like. I love the nature and history shows, evolution of the Universe, stuff like that. I watch a few sitcoms like Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, Seinfeld, etc. I never watch any of those reality shows. If I want reality, I just look out my door!
