I couldn't resist this TV meme, which is floating around. I love TV almost as much as books, so here goes…
1. Name a TV show series in which you have seen every episode at least twice: The Office (American version). I can watch this show over and over. Same with Arrested Development.
2. Name a show you can’t miss: The Office, this season of The Bachelor, Mad Men
3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to watch a show: Alec Baldwin, Jon Hamm (love his arc on 30 Rock), anyone from Arrested Development.
4. Name an actor who would make you less likely to watch a show: Britney Spears
5. Name a show you can, and do, quote from: The Simpsons
6. Name a show you like that no one else enjoys: Swingtown
7. Name a TV show which you’ve been known to sing the theme song: The Backyardigans. (Such a sweet song!)
8. Name a show you would recommend everyone to watch: Mad Men!
9. Name a TV series you own: I have some of the early seasons of The Simpsons, when it was still excellent. I also have The Office Season 2, and the final season of Six Feet Under, which is worth it for the end of the finale – the best 15 minutes of television I've ever watched.
10. Name an actor who launched his/her entertainment career in another medium, but has surprised you with his/her acting choices in television: Alec Baldwin – in a good way.

13. Ever quit watching a show because it was so bad? Desperate Housewives – yuck.
14. Name a show that’s made you cry multiple times: I used to cry watching ER. I had to stop watching it. The finale of Six Feet Under – I cry just thinking about it.
15. What do you eat when you watch TV? Usually nothing, but sometimes popcorn or the weird Japanese ice cream from Trader Joe's that I have recently become addicted to.
16. How often do you watch TV? I DVR everything so I fit it in at night while I am also working, blogging, surfing or emailing. Usually about 1-2 hours at night.
17. What’s the last TV show you watched? Last week's episode of The Office, which I watched last night.
18. What’s your favourite/preferred genre of TV? Drama and reality, with a few select sitcoms.

20. What TV show do you wish you never watched? Desperate Housewives, Joe Millionaire
21. What’s the weirdest show you enjoyed? That fake reality show – The Joe Schmo Show – about 5 years ago. Absolutely hysterical. "You are dead to us."
22. What TV show scared you the most? I hate scary shows.
23. What is the funniest TV show you have ever watched? Arrested Development.
