BEDA Blog #17 - TV

A lot of people really hate TV. They think it's a waste of time and it rots children's brain. But like most things, I don't really see a problem with it as long as it's in moderation. And because of this, I really like TV. It's another form of creative expression, just like movies, writing, art, or dancing, the people who create TV shows are doing what they enjoy and are good at, so I can appreciate that. There are three parts of this blog: what I watched as a kid, what I currently watch, and what I wish was still on TV.

Part 1 - What I watched as a kid
I was a 90s kid, who I watched pretty much all the typical shows. As a really young kid, I liked Barney. As I got older I moved onto Nick shows; Hey Arnold, Doug, The Wild Thornberrys, Rugrats (I still watch this on Netflix when I'm bored), Are you Afraid of the Dark (which scared the crap out of me!), The Weekenders, Pokemon, and Power Rangers ( the original).

Part 2 - What I currently watch
I don't actually watch a lot of TV on the actually TV. I mostly watch stuff on my computer through Netflix/DVDs. Shows that are currently on TV that I watch are: Glee, Pretty Little Liars, Modern Family, NCIS ( but I don't watched the new eps, just reruns), Cougar Town, and Off the Map. But things that I also watch that don't air new shows are: Gilmore Girls, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, and Firefly.

Part 3 - Shows I wish were still on TV
Most of the shows I already mentioned I wish still aired shows but specifically Lost, Battlestar Galactica and Firefly. Firefly was such a good show and the fact that it has such a hugh fandom over 14 eps. and 1 movie just show what an amazing show it was.

If I had to pick a top 3 favorite shows in no particular order they would be Lost, Firefly, and Battlestar Galactica. Which is weird cause I never pegged myself as a Sci-fi person, but those are all Sci-fi shows. I mean I've never even seen Star Wars, I should get on that.
