Less sports( football,basketball, anything that requires a ball), Car races, cartoons, gurus of any description, home repair, and salesmen. :lol: What about more movies, nature stuff(except for those African Murecats), and fishing programs?:biggrin:

(blush) the Young and the Restless! In Spanish or English! I hardly ever watch tv but confess to liking that garbage if a show. I also love all Law and Order shows. When I'm in baja I watch more tv than i do at home if my room has a tv. In the U.S., I usually only watch tv once a month or less. I could easily handle not having a tv 'cept it's how i use my internet and my young daughter and I would curl up our toes and die with no internet access!

If someone came up with some sort of an intelligent real world combination of Junk Yard Wars, Building DaVinci, Myth Busters and McGuyver I'd watch. Leave the silly costumes, and the marooon on DaVinci, and the giant flaming explosions in Hollywood, but give us people with huge imagination, widely based skill sets, reasonable mental health, and meaningful challanges to demonstrate their enginuity. Flavor liberally with elements of Robinson Crusoe and Tom Hanks' island. OK, now you really know too much about me!

Oh, DanO, Star Trek was funny and I'm not even fluent in Spanish!

I can always do with a good laugh, so I like the funny commercials shows, especially the international ones, they're WAAYY more fun than US ones. And the funny home videos are always a fav. Can't have too much funny in your life.

"Lost"????? I tried to watch that when it started, I think I'd need 2 weeks and the dvd box set to get caught up on that one. After a couple of vinos the minute (that's my-NOOT, not Mi-nut) plot changes get lost. (get it....LOST?!?)

Actually, what do I want to see MORE of on TV? Well, as for us, there are enough dedicated channels for food, animals, travel, health, religion, porn, sports, cartoons........... from someone who's had full access for a while now, I think that if you can't find something of interest on the tube......GET A BOOK!

there's always something to watch, if you have all the channels.

Through it all I never considered what my fellow Nomads watch or what they might prefer. I think I know some of their bents and biases but it would be very interesting to hear from them about the kinds of TV programs not on the airwaves now, that they would find engaging.

I'm not asking what you watch now: NASCAR, Bill Maher or How to Stop Killing Innocent Children and build More Defined Abs.

I'm asking "WHAT NEW SHOWS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE?" Asked another way: What new or original forms of electronic entertainment can you envision, concoct, find a market for that would be sure to please some of our members?

More Baja news and pictures is a given but the room for more has no boundaries I can imagine.



My post heading should have been: LET'S TEST THE READING COMPREHENSION LEVELS OF MEMBERS OF THE FORUM. WAS IT NOT CLEAR THAT I WAS NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT YOU WATCH NOW? I WAS TRYING TO GET YOU TO IMAGINE NEW SHOWS, NEW SUBJECTS THAT MIGHT BLOW UP YOUR VARIOUS PANTS/SKIRTS. ALL I GOT WAS THE WEST COAST TV SCHEDULE FROM A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO USE THEIR EYES BUT NOT THEIR GRAY MATTER. SHEESH.

Good thing I'll be in summer school this year.
