What I Watch

I've got to tell you about some of my new can't miss shows. First is Outsourced on NBC. My family loves this show but I've got to say it is so blatantly politically incorrect! Short synopsis: Novelty company outsources their customer service department to India. All-American boy travels to India to train employees, cultural differences entail. One of my favorite episodes was titled "Touched by an Anglo". It emphasised the cultural differences between the sexes. If you haven't caught this show definitely tune in Thursday's on NBC.

Next, Piers Morgan Tonight on CNN. I think I'm falling in love with this show. Piers took over the Larry King Live time slot. As I type this I'm watching his interview with Ricky Gervais, after his controversial Golden Globes. Now you may know Piers from America's Got Talent. I'm really enjoying his banter with the guests. If he continues in this vein I will continue to DVR this show.

As always, I still love the Ellen Degeneres Show. She is so funny. After so many years on tv she is keeping it fresh. I love it when she gets 'tickled' by one of her guests. Especially the kids, they can be so unpredictable. I also admire the fact that she uses her show to help others. Many times she has reached out to average people to help them in their life. I also like her penchant for scaring her guests. It is hilarious!

Which leads me to the new OWN - Oprah Winfrey Network. This new network has not grabbed me yet. I try to catch various shows and none of the current schedule does it for me. I especially dislike the Best of Trading Spaces. Those were interesting the first time around but to look back. YUCK! I am slightly intrigued by some of Cristina Ferrares Big Bowl of Love. It is a cooking show that I have pulled some recipes from. Now the family wasn't excited by my salmon loaf even though I liked it. I'll have patience with this new network as it unfolds. What's your opinion?

Note: If you haven't checked out my Just for Fun section to the right, you should. My niece and her hubby have moved from Kansas City to the D.C. area. Their new blog is Hatfields Far from Oz. If you have a blog you think I should check out let me know.
