'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You heard that's out on DVD? Or coming out soon, I forget which.
Did it suck? It probably sucked, didn't it? I have to Netflix it. Oh, and get a working DVD player. There's only so much I can watch on my computer. Someone please help me in 'Tech. I can't make the decision on my own.
I watched all of the tv I wanted, whenever I wanted. My teenaged years I memorized TV Guide cover to cover and had the listings grid memorized for every night (even for shows I didn't watch). I was obsessed with the fall preview issue. (I was the same way about movies, actually). I don't know that it did anything for me socially, in school, although everyone always counted on me to give facts about tv and movies.
Javachik is me! My family called me a walking TV Guide...even though we didn't actually get TV guide.
I posted this link in music, but can someone tell me where the top picture in this blog post is from?
No Matter What You Call it, Goth is Goth
It's from Let The Right One In.
even though we didn't actually get TV guide.
Wow, what did you use?? The newspaper? ESTVP?
We never got TVGuide as a kid, but the Washington Post used to include a TV listings magazine-style insert in the Sunday sections. (Maybe it still does - I haven't lived in DC since high school.)

Oh cool! I've been meaning to see that. Is it out on DVD yet?
Yes, according to DH. Apparently we own it. (I have no idea what media comes into my home. I just see the shelves continue to sag under the weight of boxed sets.)
My high school TV viewing was slightly more me, less Parentals: Trek (TNG), ENG (was that high school or was it college? I think it was high school), Kids in the Hall, The Red Green Show, Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Doctor Who (which was a constant from the fourth doctor to the seventh, frankly, and I'm shocked I left it off list the first), Are You Being Served?, that one with the old dudes with antique stores, Twin Peaks, Lovejoy, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Beverly Hills 90210, QVC (I loved him first, you Mike Rowe come latelys! This one time, with this neon wall sign of a rainbow and clouds? OMG, he cracked me up. "Turn it on, sunny. Turn it off, cloudy!"), National Finals Rodeo, the nightly horse racing recap show (local), Bombshelter Video, 120 Minutes, Liquid Television.
Wow. I watched a lot of TV.
I think I just didn't sleep.
Wow, what did you use?? The newspaper? ESTVP?
There was a supplement that came with the newspaper. And, until I was 12 or so, we only had 3 channels. After that, we only still had 12 channels, so there wasn't that much to remember.
