The Shows I'm Addicted To: 9/20/13

So here it is everyone!!  I know you've been sitting on the edge of your seats with anticipation, foaming at the mouth ready to sink your teeth into this week's edition of The Shows I'm Addicted To!  Now for those of you new to these parts, this is a blog where I list the Top 10 programs that I've been watching over the past week.  I've been scouring Netflix (mostly), Hulu, and of course grandfather cable.  But nevertheless, onward and forward with the list!

10. My Name Is Earl

(Last Week: #9)

One week down and anther spot down goes My Name Is Earl.  I think I've only caught one episode this week.  I'm sorry Jaime Pressly, I still love you.  (I would really like to believe that she reads my blog.)

9. Ugly Betty

(Last Week: N/A)

New to the list this week is Ugly Betty.  Now Netflix recommended this to me and so far I'm a big fan.  I'm still on the first couple of episodes, but I will say that I love the writing of this show so far.  Betty is a genius, but I will say that all the other catty fashion people are just as great!

8. Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives

(Last Week: N/A)

Now I wouldn't say that I'm addicted to this show, but boy oh boy did I watch a lot of it this week!  Mostly just one day of it, my roommates and I just pulling a binge marathon of it.  Not sure why, but I love seeing the food here.  I also love to make fun of Guy Fieri, he is just a tad on the annoying side, but it works for the show in a weird way.

7. WWE NXT

(Last Week: #6)

Down one spot this week is WWE NXT.  The WWE's apple of my eye is down one spot this week.  I'm still becoming a huge mark for Sami Zayn but other than that NXT didn't really have too much standing out for me this week.  I will say that I'm becoming a big fan of Bo Dallas' new gimmick where he reacts to all the heel heat he gets with babyface actions.  Keep at it Bo, you're making me proud!

6. How I Met Your Mother

(Last Week: #7)

This is Legend...Wait For It...Dary!  Yep, How I Met Your Mother is up one spot this week.  I'm hook line and sinker for this show, but after all, is there anybody in this world that isn't?  I'm still trying to catch up on it so I can watch the final season with the rest of the world.  I may not get any sleep at all, but I'm going to accomplish this!

5. WWE Monday Night RAW

(Last Week: #5)

WWE RAW chills at the same spot this week, but I have to brag about this week's episode.  Three Words: Stephanie.  McMahon.  Helmsley.  The segments she was in this week were all golden, but the one at the end with Dusty Rhodes and Big Show.  I will say that Big Show can't really act his way out of a paper bag, but just seeing her cold reaction was the stuff wrestling is made for!  Seriously, I'm beginning to have my fill of them screwing over Daniel Bryan, but if I get to see more evil things like this.  I'm down!

4. Weeds

(Last Week: #3)

Down one spot this week is Weeds.  Now I've made it through the first season finally and I have to say that I'm just so into this show.  I really wish I had caught it while it was still airing.  Season 1: Episode 9 is totally my favorite at the moment, where she gets jacked by the college security guy.  I know that this show is only going to get better, but I'm really high on it right now!  (See what I did there?)

3. The IT Crowd

(Last Week: N/A)

Hello, IT, have you tried turning it on and off again?  Those famous words are now my new favorite!  I'm re-watching and catching all that I've missed of this show so I can be ready for the special feature final that's coming on September 29th.  This might be the funniest show of the last decade and I'm ready for the finale to bring it all together!

2. New Girl

(Last Week: #1)

Dropping from the top spot this week, New Girl has had an interesting watching schedule for me this week.  Now I know season 3 just premiered, but I had just finished season 1.  So I was kind of lost for a while this week cause I didn't have any more episodes this week because my Hulu watching has been glitchy.  But then I got an email from Netflix saying season 2 was up!  Holy crap I watched about 5 episodes right after the email!  New Girl has returned to my screen and it's here to stay!

1. Total Divas

(Last Week: #2)

Finally climbing up to number one this week is Total Divas!  After being stuck in the background at #2 for most of its season 1 run behind Orange Is The New Black then New Girl, the women of the WWE have grabbed my attention this week.  With this being the season 1 mid-season finale, and having Natalya's wedding, the show was really good this week!  But more interesting was the reunion episode that followed.  Nikki Bella continued to get on my nerves, but hearing Jaret come out and say horrible things to TJ was intense, I was hoping for a WWE throwdown right there!  But with no new episodes till November, who knows where Total Divas will end up on the list next week!

So that's it!  There is my list this week!  What do you think?  Do you like it?  Do you hate it?  Do you not care about this blog at all?  Tell me!

Until next week!

The Shows I'm Addicted To: 9/13/13

Here we go everyone!  It's the middle of September and it's all most that time...Yep, fall premiere week is just around the corner!  I'm mostly looking forward to Once Upon A Time and its spin-off Once Upon A Time In Wonderland, but there are plenty of other great shows on my radar too.  But that is next week and this week I'm here with a new list of my Top 10 Show that I'm addicted to!

If this is your first time reading, here's a little bit of info to catch you up.  I'm pretty much addicted to television, and here are the things I've perused using Hulu, Netflix, the internet, and of course cable!  These shows have made me enjoy life and kept me up all night watching and watching and watching...

Let's Go!

10. Kitchen Nightmares

(Last Week: #6)

Kitchen Nightmares falls down a couple spots this week barely hanging on.  I caught a little bit of one episode, but I was on a vacation for a bit this weekend and then I've been binge watching other shows.  Gordon Ramsey is still entertaining and everything, but he simply loses to everything else that's going on.  With tons of shows premiering next week, I wonder if Mr. Ramsey might get chopped...Speaking of which, has anyone else seen the show Chopped?  It's fantastic, I have a deep obsession with food shows.

9. My Name Is Earl

(Last Week: #8)

Dropping down one spot this week is My Name Is Earl.  This show is sort of suffering the same fate as Kitchen Nightmares, I just haven't had much time for it this week.  I must apologize to this show because I still have so much love for it...and Jaime Pressley.  The more I watch of this show though, the more I'm sad it no longer airs cause it really should!  It's hilarious and has some of the best characters of any show I've seen.

8. How I Met Your Mother

(Last Week: #7)

After an impressive debut on the list last week, How I Met Your Mother drops one spot this week.  Now I know the show is starting its last season this fall, but I'm still on season three.  I know I'm behind on the times, but I've got this problem where I like to watch things in bulk every night on Netflix rather than catch it every week.  But my goal is to hopefully catch up on the series before its finally!  

7. Million Dollar Quiz

(Last Week: N/A)

I will admit that I really don't understand this show, it's got the most confusing game show layout in the history of history.  The weird thing about the show was that no matter what I did I couldn't look away.  Ryan Seacrest was yelling at me and then Al Roker was pulling people out of bars in New York City!  The questions were easy and you get paid to sit in a chair!  Excitement abounds!

6. WWE NXT

(Last Week: #3)

The awesomeness that is WWE NXT falls down a few spots this week.  The show itself was awesome but it wasn't a complete standout to me like last week.  I'm still a huge fan of Sami Zayn and I'm always one to mark out for Paige, so I don't see NXT leaving this list anytime soon!

5. Hollywood Game Night

(Last Week: N/A)

Hollywood Game Night made its debut on the list two weeks ago and then the next week it vanished just as soon as it appeared.  I caught the show again and it reminded me how much I enjoy it.  This week had a ton of fun people on the show Sean Hayes, Amy Poehler, and Jason Sudeikis just to name a few.  This show will have you dying laughing, it's pretty much the best game show on TV right now.

4. WWE Monday Night RAW

(Last Week: #5)

The top tier of sports entertainment comes in this week at number four, jumping up one spot from last week.  Now NXT still has my heart but Monday Night RAW will always be the flagship of the WWE.  I'm getting really anxious to see where they are taking the storyline with Daniel Bryan, cause it's starting to feel a bit stale, I'm waiting for a wrench to be thrown in the machine.

3. Weeds

(Last Week: #4)

Jumping up one spot this week is Weeds, now I can't tell you how much I'm falling in love with this show.  Every character is fantastic and I would really like a Heylia button that just says snappy comebacks to anyone when I'm having a bad day.  This show is proving to me why is was such as huge success.

2. Total Divas

(Last Week: #2)

The forever number two it seems is Total Divas.  This week we got to see what happens when Jojo attempts to sing...it wasn't pretty.  It was weird cause I got to see her singing debut on WWE Superstars before it actually happened and the commentary team played it up so well, it was weird to see the reaction in the back.  Also Nikki Bella got hurt.  This show is really just a tool that teaches me how much I really don't enjoy them.  I mean there okay in the ring, but...yeah, that's it.  Next week is the mid-season finale, so we'll see how it all works out.

1. New Girl

(Last Week: #1)

Still at number one this week...Who's that girl, who's that girl?  It's Jess!  New Girl is sort of my addiction and season 3 starts soon, now Netflix has season 1 and I just finished it, so I have to turn to Hulu to catch season 2 so I can be caught up.  I'm not sure what happens, so don't spoil it for me, but I'm praying that Schmidt and CeCe get back together!  Wow I sound like a chick, but it's true. 

Alrighty folks, there's this week's list!  Like it?  Hate it?  Is there something that I need to be watching?  Let me know!  Until next week, this is Joey.  I'm out!

The Shows I'm Addicted To: 9/6/13

Hello Guys!  Welcome to the first September edition of The Shows I'm Addicted To!  This is of course my weekly blog post that lets you know the shows that I'm currently watching and staying addicted to!  Now I'm catching all these shows via Netflix, Hulu, and of course good old regular cable, so they can be from current to past!   So without any further ado, here are the programs that are keeping me awake at night this week!

10. Wipeout

(Last Week: N/A)

Coming in at number 10 this week is ABC's Wipeout.  Now this show is something I've taken to enjoying in the breakroom while I'm work.  Now I know this might be the most tasteful show for some people, but if you don't enjoy watching people fall headfirst into things or tumble off the big red balls, then something is wrong with you!  As they say in German: Schadenfredue, it's happiness in the misfortune of others.  (Thanks for that word Avenue Q!)

9. Phineas & Ferb

(Last Week: #6)

Phineas and Ferb stays on the list this week, falling down a few spots to number nine.  I'm slowly but surely becoming a huge nerd about this show.  It doesn't help that I work for Disney and I see Perry The Platypus stuff everywhere.  Seriously with Disney's merchandising and my frivolous spending, this show might break me.  Also, I really want a talking Baljeet action figure!

8. My Name Is Earl

(Last Week: #5)

Also falling down a couple spots on the list week is My Name Is Earl.  I feel really bad about not catching as much of this show as I want, but it's really just a victim of the other shows I'm watching (and my life) taking up too much of my time.  I still love this show and I'm still waiting on Jaime Pressly to accept my proposal of marriage!

7. How I Met Your Mother

(Last Week: N/A)

New to the list this week is the impeccable How I Met Your Mother.  Now I feel ashamed about this show, I've been trying to play catch up to it for so long and I'm still just starting season three.  But this week, thanks to my roommate Kati, I've begun catching more of it!  I'm just going to say it, you can't not like this show, it's too good!  Also just look at the cast, there's not a bad one in the bunch!  Also: Neil Patrick Harris, nuff said!

6. Kitchen Nightmares

(Last Week: #3)

After jumping up a few spots to number three last week, Kitchen Nightmares falls back to its usual home on the list at number six.  Much like I said with My Name Is Earl earlier, this show falls only due to the fact that I've been watching so many other shows.  I do have a request if this show decides to return, can Gordon please do a fast food place?  That sounds like TV gold to me!

5. WWE Monday Night RAW

(Last Week: #4)

Dropping down just one spot this week is WWE Monday Night RAW!  This week has the misfortune as not being as exciting as last week to me.  Now I know that it must be hard to write so much television.  Doing a live broadcast every single week has to be crazy, but last week was so good, this week just didn't live up to the hype.  But I'm still with you WWE!

4. Weeds

(Last Week: #7)

Jumping up a couple spots this week is Weeds.  This show was my next stop cause I lost the TV show of my life that was Orange Is The New Black, but Weeds is just as good.  Who knew that the writer of that show would have another successful show?  I know Weeds has been on longer and I'm playing catch up right now, but I really do love this show!  Can I say that I'm very high on this show??  I'll stop with the puns...My apologies.

3. WWE NXT

(Last Week: #9)

The biggest jump this week comes to us from WWE NXT.  Now I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is the best show that the WWE has right now.  The real reason for the jump up this week?  Did anyone else see the match between Sami Zayn and Jack Swagger?  That match was Pay Per View quality!  Seriously, the fact that you had to go to Hulu to see that match was cruel, I want to see this on my television each week!  Seriously one of the best matches I've seen in some time!

2. Total Divas

(Last Week: #2)

Chilling in its usual spot on the list is my always guilty pleasure Total Divas.  This week we got to see a creepy "romance" "blossom" between Jojo and WWE Superstar Justin Gabriel.  While we got to see that couple crash and burn, Natalya was busy having her bachelor party and stressing over if she should flirt with this other guy or her fiance...Duh Nattie.  Also, drunk Bella Twins...Just as annoying as sober Bella Twins.

1. New Girl

(Last Week: #1)

Still on top this week is New Girl.  I really can't tell you how much I enjoy this show.  I want to hang out with these people and I would like to also extend an invitation of marriage to Zooey Deschanel if this whole thing with Jaime Pressly doesn't work out.  This show is all about dorky awkward and I love it.  If you haven't seen this miracle of a program you need to reevaluate your life and your choices.
