We probably won't. After a full week of new TV shows - and me probably buying the DVR service from our cable company - I will have plenty of missed shows to catch up on. Neither of us vote mainstream so unless my son has some project for school, I am not going to watch the top two duke it out. I always wonder, why do they have to show the debate on so many different channels? Seems like a waste of air time.

I probably won't knowingly, but if my husband is home and decides to turn on the tv and catches it, it will be in the background, so I might catch some of it..I usually don't watch because by this time I already know who I am voting for, why listen to them put each other down only to stress me out, no thank you!!!

If they didn't' do such much campaigning and mudslinging prior to the debate I think more people would watch.

Well, unless they are interupted because of the Crisis the US is in due to the Stock Market, etc. I do plan on watching this. I feel it is vitally important to watch this, and see where both candidates stand on a lot of the issues. For me, if not with any other Election, this is the most crucial one ever, and I feel that there are some issues I really want to see where each one stands on. The Economy here in the US is at the worst it has ever been, and it will take a complete miracle for it to ever completely improve, but a lot of it will be who is Elected in November as President as well. For me, I find these types of things quite interesting as I Love to follow Politics even if I do not always agree.

I am not planning on watching it. I doubt there will be anything on that night that I will want to watch, so I guess I will have to rent a movie if I want to watch something.

If you like SciFi stuff, the SciFi channel has Stargate on Friday nights. Usually the first episode is old, but the second episode is new.
