TV is background noise for me for the most part. As I type this some inane "home improvement" show is on. I just finished watching Top Gear which I watch intently and Canada Worst Driver is on in 20 minutes. I also watch the Holmes on Homes, Aussie Top Gear and Fifth Gear but beyond that I really cant think of many shows that I have to see. Whats most interesting is that a lot of the "content" I watch is downloaded.

I cant watch golf or any other sports on TV. I would rather play. I couldnt imagine watching Poker.

I still enjoy "Cops". I always feel better about myself after watching the cops bring the beat down on some drunk doper wife beater jerk.

On off switch...how quaint :p

It's a power/standby soft touch OLED pad! No one actually uses "switches" anymore :p

22 year old Dane won $9.1M and became youngest WSOP champ ever... and I enjoyed watching the entire two hour final table show. ;)

Why? ;)

Sports is the only reality tv I enjoy. I know.... poker isn't a sport, but it does take cunning, guile, nerves of steel, math skills, and the ability to concentrate for hours on end.

Like NASCAR, baseball, bowling, golf, billiards, darts, mudwrestling.. (okay that last one is a stretch) the more you know about the game, the more there is to enjoy and appreciate.

I don't watch much TV beyond a few tivo'd shows like Good Eats and Iron Chef, but I will cop to watching poker from time to time, especially if I'm traveling and can't get to sleep in my hotel room (which is most always). Poker is all about psychology, and as long as the announcers mostly keep their mouth shut, it is fascinating to watch the subtle stuff that goes on at the table. It's like a focused social experiment :D

I've played LOTS of poker. Just can't watch.

I'm glad you enjoy watching. :)

Television happened to real poker.

Texas hold'em makes for better television.

So I figure I'll watch, right? Not on, of course:mad:

I played Texas Hold'em






once, did not care for it. I like craps, or stud poker, 5 or 7 card

I caught a few minutes... It choked...

Hard.

what about that show where people get tattoos? THATS exciting.
or another "top model" show or cooking show, that what this country needs. you ever notice they all have their token "gay guy", not that there's anything wrong with that.
i was hoping this was to complain about all those "mini comercials" they put at the bottom of the screens. they seem to get bigger and bigger. yeah, i got issues:D

had a strange but fun dream the other night where a friend and myself were traveling the world to watch weird games. reality tv games type games.. a couple I can remember were bullfighting on ice, handgrenade hot potatoe, lawn dart dodge ball, lawn dart badminton, mine field hopscotch, hold my beer and watch this... this might even be a little too weird for Japanese tv.
