What television show are you addicted to? I don't watch a lot of tv in general but one of my addictions is My 600 lb Life. I feel really bad for the people on there, but sometimes it really bothers me to see them whining about how hard things are instead of doing the work it takes to lose the weight. I know I'm bigger than I should be, but would jump at the chance for a free weight loss surgery and a chance to get help getting healthy!

My favorite shows are Pretty Little Liars and Orange is the New Black!
-
iwas addicted to Breaking Bad loved it and also The walking Dead you can get addicted easily espe cially when other folks friends or family also love the shows. I like Netflix cause you can watch shows from the beginning like i'm watching Madmen good but not addicted to that one.
-
I totally agree with you on the addiction of shows. My problem is I'm addicted to so many of them. This evening for instance, there is The Bachelorette. Later in the week I have to see So You Think You Can Dance. I do my best to see them live as they are airing, but if push comes to shove, I will watch it on DVR. Can you imagine how annoyed I get when there is a power outage during recording, especially during a finale! When that happens, I turn ugly!

I think "addicted" is the wrong word and a word that is way over used. Kind of like other words these days. lol. There are shows that people can like to watch and make every effort to watch it every week but that does not mean they are "addicted" to the show. I also watch a lot of DVDs and have several series and usually put a DVD in and watch the entire DVD before I take it out. But I am not addicted to the show. I just like to watch it. Just my opinion here. : )
-
:) Not addicted but Castle, Rizzoli & Isles, Elementary, NCIS. :)
-
I am addicted to the flash, the first season was simply amazing!
-
I can get addicted to tv shows especially reality shows like the Housewives of_____(any of them really).
For this reason alone, I watch very little tv and only record shows I really, really want to watch when it's convenient for me.
-
The only show I have to watch immediately when it comes out is The Walking Dead.

my son has gotten me hooked on Supernatural as well...the exception is that I dont watch it on live tv, I watch on Netflix so that way I can start at the beginning and work my way through the episodes :)
-
I wouldn't say I'm addicted to any TV shows, but I like to watch several different shows. I like my soap operas, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, Dance Moms and the NCIS shows.
-
I haven't been addicted to a show since I was a teen. The last show I couldn't miss a episode of was The X Files (a decade ago). I'm just not interested in TV like I used to, so a lot of these shows I never even seen (yet).
-
I am really not addicted to any show....
-
There have been some but I really don't watch TV anymore so I guess I am not.
-
Not a whole lot of shows to get addicted to anymore, but I am watching The Last Ship right now :thumbsup:

I agree with you, not much shows to watch these days. I've been watching Last Ship as well.
-
I don't think there's a tv show that i'm addicted to. if i like a show i like it and would watch it without waiting for it to end so i can watch the whole series on netflix or hulu or something.
-
Right now I am into "The Last Ship" but, I cannot wait for the return of "Under the Dome"!
-
I am addicted to seinfield, good times and the jefferson.
-
I am absolutely addicted to shows about hoarders. Do not ask me why lol I think it would take a psychiatrist to answer that one. I love Hoarders, Hoarders Buried Alive and since I have watched all of those two I have now discovered a BBC one called "How clean is your house". It is fabulous !
-
At this moment I am watching Sleepy Hollow and yes I really do enjoy it. I cant wait for the next season to start.
-
I am addicted to many of them to count, but I do not like many reality TV shows, just DWTS, Biggest Loser and AMGT, anything else that is reality in my opinion sucks.
-
I am not a big TV fan but for a while I was watching storage wars every night. I thought the things they found were interesting but then I heard it might have been staged in some instances.
-
cant say any relly...i like jimmy fallon,,,,, :thumbsup:
-
I am addicted to news shows like ABC Evening News and 60 minutes. Plus a number of hour long dramas like Madam Secretary, Call the Midwife and The Good Wife. I was really addicted to a lot of shows that have gone off the air like Breaking Bad, Lost and 24. I watched every single episode of those.
-
not really addicted to tv..now my computer is another subject
-
Not addicted to any shows, but I do enjoy some TV shows that peak my interest more than others.
-
I'm addicted to Star Trek.
-
I am not addicted to any now and I have only been addicted to one ever. The Newsroom on HBO.
-
Some of my shows are just coming back like Extant, Under the Dome, Hannibul and Strain(this month)
-
Psych was the tv show I was most addicted to until it got canceled and had to end ,so if your ever watching something on USA network better stop now before your half way into it and they cancel it.
-
ncis gibbs is cool
-
I like good wife and castle
-
I watch a lot of TV but I got addicted to Empire VERY fast.
-
I live so far out in the country that I don't get any cable service, don't really want to deal with a dish and rarely watch TV regularly anyway, so I rent DVDs and binge watch to catch up on lots of different shows. I only have about a dozen or so favorites! The 2 I have now are Grimm and Haven. I also like to rent older series and re-watch those.
-
The Hubby and I watch .. Walking Dead ... Falling skies ... The last ship .. together
I am addicted to a lot of different shows that I usually catch "On Demand" .. Major Crimes and Rizzoli and Isles .. Most of the TNT shows .. (Cold Justice etc)
I recently got Netflix .. I wanted to watch Lost which I never got to see before .. watched all six seasons in about 3 wks .. definitely was addicted to that one .. great show
-
I am addicted to so many tv shows, The haves and have not, So you think you can dance, master chef, Suvivors, and I can go on and on.
-
battlestar galactica 1978
-
Blue Bloods, Big Brother, Impractical Jokers are shows that I really enjoy watching and try not to miss new episodes
-
The best way for me to be UNADDICTED is to no longer have tv... My roommate moved out a month ago and shut of the cable that was in her name. I don't want to pay for it so I have not signed up for it again. I don't miss it (yet).
-
I was watching *bleep* Stars quite a bit for a long time but now I have a girlfriend and she takes up all my time.
-
we have been pretty addicted to that new show Arrow and then when were just wanting a laugh we like to watch the office and then friends.
-
I've watched that show quite a bit myself. I am about 20 or 25 pounds overweight -- nothing extreme, but still something I need to keep in check. Changing your eating habits is very difficult, but for people who are THAT much overweight, it is often a coping mechanism to deal with some other emotional issues. It is interesting to watch a show like my 600 pound life alongside a show like Hoarders and see the similarities between the subjects who just fall into different patterns of coping.
That said, I think that TLC purposely tries to manufacture "drama" when it comes to the show's subjects either being defiant with the doctor or eating things they shouldn't be -- otherwise the show wouldn't evoke such strong emotions from its viewers and wouldn't draw as many people back each week.
Think about it - they follow and film these people for an entire year and then whittle that down to a 60 minute episode. So the editors are sure to crop in the worst of the worst days just for the shock factor. It is both exploitive AND informative at the same time. Still you can't help feeling sympathy for some and dislike for others...
