My TV Vice

We don't watch a lot of television.  Most of the time, it's turned off.  We have a couple shows that we like to watch, like Modern Family, but anything over half an hour we ignore.  Lost hurt us.  Never again can we become addicted to an hour long TV show.  There's too much commitment.  There's too much drama.  And who has the time?

We ignore this rule for one show.  My favorite show.  The best thing that ever happened to primetime.
Yes, I'm talking about The Biggest Loser.  More specifically, Jillian Michaels.  Have I told you how much I like her?  How I want to be just like her when I grow up?  If you don't watch the show (which you should), Jillian is one of three trainers who takes a group of people and whips them into shape.  Some may say Jillian is the meanest.  I don't know about that.  Her yelling gets results.  And she has great hair.  She doesn't take any nonsense or excuses from anyone. 

Ya ya, we also like rooting for the contestants and seeing who can pull through the competition.  And I like how they inspire people to change their lives.  But most of the time, we're watching the show eating ice cream and sitting on our bottoms, talking about how much we I like Jillian and Bob.  I think most of the population is.  I'd like to be on the show just so Jillian could yell at me, because let's be honest, I wouldn't make it there for a day.  But I like to think I'd persevere, bulk up, and then Jillian and I could be besties.  Alas, it will never happen.

What is your TV vice?
