This Holiday Season is the most popular time for Television Marathons. Yesterday, I watched some of the $100,000 Pyramid Marathon on Game Show Network. Today, the Let’s Make A Deal Marathon was on my agenda. Do you see a theme with my marathons?
Yes. I’m somewhat of a game show addict. One day…I hope that you’ll see me on TV and say… I know that guy! He’s my real estate agent friend in Columbia, South Carolina. Sorry. I digressed. Anyway……. These marathons motivated me to share with you my personal 2008 Television Marathon. These are the shows that will give me a break from the real estate world. If you are looking for something new to watch on TV, give these shows a try.
1. Family Guy – If you are a member of Generation X, this show will be hilarious!
2. The Boondocks – Aaron McGruder’s Comic Strip comes to life on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim.
3. Countdown with Keith Olbermann – I can describe this show in eight words “World’s Worst Person in the World and Special Comments”. Don’t forget to by his book entitled Truth and Consequences.
4. The First 48 – This is a REAL LIFE (not staged reality) show based on homicide detectives in cities such as Memphis, Tennessee and Miami, Florida.
5. Reno 911! – If you are a fan of the long running television series COPS, you’ll love this parody! This is another hilarious show!
6. Mythbusters – This show deals with the validity of urban legends that have existed throughout history. Does mice actually scare elephants? This show attempts to answer that question.
7. American Gangster – This is a documentary series featuring some of the most notorious African-American gangsters. Ving Rhames is the narrator.
8. Dr. Frank E. Ray, Sr. – Dr. Ray is the pastor New Salem Missionary Baptist Church in Memphis. If you are ever in Memphis on a Sunday morning, Dr. Ray's sermon is a required activity. I watch his sermons on The Word Network.
9. Boston Celtics Games – I am a huge Kevin Garnett fan! This will be his best opportunity to with a NBA Championship! “Let the truth be told!”
10. The new television show of 2008 that catches my attention. Here’s wishing you a safe, blessed and healthy (and great TV watching) 2008!
Have a Safe, Healthy and Prosperous 2008!
Wow, I only have a couple and one of them is Prison Break, CSI, Missing in 24 hours and so forth on those topics. But favorite movie has been Rudy, what great inspiration that movie is to me.
