Do your favourite TV shows say something about your character?

    This is a question that has bothered me (kind of) for a while. The two tv shows that i adore more than any other are: Shameless & Skins.
    It is pure unadulterated pleasure when I sit down to watch them. This is my favourite time of the year, both of them are back on telly and I always watch the repeats as well as having them on DVD.

    Do you see my point - sex, violence, drugs, murder, torture, debauchery, dealing, crime etc etc. :(

    No little house on the prairie, or fair city here.

    I have often been told I am quite Niles-ish.

    But that has less to do with personality and lifestyle habits, more general weakness.

    So no, your viewing habits say nothing about you. Unless you like Russell Brand.

    I love House MD! i am a cynic, like to call it as i see it, tend to annoy people(the truth hurts)! So i think i like the character as im a bit like him:p although funny thing is when then initial outrage passes im often thanked for not just saying what it is that is wanted to be heard lol.

    I love ''America's Next Top Model" and "Ugly Betty". I also love depressing programs, about serial killers, drug addicts and the like. And "The Simpsons''. Don't know what that says about my character.
