I have a lot of media musts. The word musts is starting to look really goofy now. I am going to go ahead and claim that it is indeed a word. Musts musts musts.
TV
the shows I would tivo if I had a tivo.
Gilmore Girls - I've been watching it since the beginning and I can't stand to stop, even when the plot gets really stupid sometimes. No one in my presence is allowed to talk while watching this show.
Lost - Again--getting really stupid but I'm hooked.
Heroes - OMG the greatest show ever! I have to tape this one every week because of Handbells and I usually end up watching it twice. If you haven't watched it, shame on you.
The Dresden Files - I'm on a Sci-Fi kick right now. This show is pretty good, but I would like to read the books.
Supernatural- Another one I've followed since the beginning. I maintain that it hasn't gotten stupid, Gypsy maintains that it has. I still like it.
What not to Wear - Its a Friday night staple, and any other time its on. My remote always finds it, even the UK version. Gypsy and I used to watch this together every week. We've become lazy home bodies so we usually watch it then talk about the new episodes the next time we see each other. Sad I know, but we enjoy it.
Two other guilty pleasures - I don't watch these regularly, but I do enjoy them immensely: Campus Ladies, and the Sarah Silverman Program. They are just too funny. Gypsy insists that I am just like Sarah Silverman. I don't know what to think about that.
Podcasts
I listen to my ipod at work so there are a lot. Here are the staples:
Lime and Violet - Is there really any way of describing why to love L'NV? Bathtubs full of gin, yarn pron, and crazy dogs. That's all you get now go subscribe it you haven't already. These gals are awesome!
Pottercast - I've been listening to this one since they began and I love them. Melissa, John, Sue, and the rest of the gang are a weekly joy. Its also a very professional listen, which I enjoy.Squeeeeeeeeeee!
Mugglecast - I've listened to them from the beginning as well. They have matured a lot. Its crazy how discussion is so different from Pottercast even though they talk about the same news and a lot of the same book conundrums.
Craftsanity - An interview show about all kinds of crafts. I love it!
Cast On - Brenda Dayne rocks and her voice is so pleasant to listen to.
Craftborg - Rosemary and Julie had a great idea on this one. I just wish they would update more often. I love the potter-themed socks!
Those are my musts but here are the other ones I'm subscribed to and listen to as well: Craftcast, Craft:magazine, Crafty Chica, CrochetCast, Its a Purl Man, Knitting Psychos, KnitWit, LetsKnit2gether, Lifechurch.tv podcast, PixiePurls, PodcastFondue, Sticks and String, The Mosh Knit, and last but not least The Princeton Review Vocabulary Minute(yes its meant for youngsters, but I get a kick out of the songs hehe).
Video Games
yeah I like games too, but I don't do too much gaming. I am very easily addicted to games and I have to limit myself. I only get to play one until I finish it and that's in hour increments or so. So it takes me a long time, but I enjoy making them last. I usually play a level and then look at awalkthrough to make sure I didn't miss anything. I don't know how anyone can play a lot of the games with out a walkthrough. Props to you if you can.
Kingdom Hearts (ps2)- I am behind the times I know, but I am really into this game right now as I have blogged about before. The only thing that really annoys me is that you can't skip cut scenes that you've already seen. Some of them are really stinking long. I don't have instructions to this one, so if you know how to skip them tell me please. I can't wait to play the second one (jack sparrowrawarrr)
I have also played all of the PC versions of the Harry Potter Games. I'm now wanting to get them for PS2. They are pretty inexpensive right now. That makes me happy. I'm ready for the OotP game! WOot!
Guilty Pleasure: The Sims (And every variation of it known to man). I don't know why, I just like it. You can make fun of me if you want, but I will assume you've at least never played it or you have been addicted to it at some point.
Print
we'll have to talk about magazines and blogs later. Too many to mention right now.
Now that I've shared mine...What are yours? You don't have to be exhaustive, although I always enjoy a good read.
