TV shows you secretly love but are too ashamed to admit

[planespotting]

I am addicted to Gossip Girl

This is so bad. I am 38 and a mum. I professional woman that has travelled and has strong opinions on most things.
Yes I swallowed Pretty Little Liars like there was no tomorrow whilst breastfeeding my newborn

Then Gilmore Girls again

And now from 8-9/8-10 I watch Gossip Girl
Love it
On season 5

Please tell me your dirty secrets 😫

Traffic Cops
Police Interceptors
Parking Wars
The Sheriffs are Coming (actually ANY rubbish BBC morning programme including really dull ones about roads)
Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian
Extreme Weightloss
Pretty much anything on Investigation and Discovery or Crime and Investigation especially stuff about serial killers

I am an educated, professional woman (no really)

I watched a few episodes of Dance Moms. I saw the tears and tantrums as the two rival groups prepared for the Big Competition they both just had to win. And then I realised there was a Big Competition every other episode, so it was difficult to care really.

I'm ashamed to say that I watch:

Banged Up Abroad - I'm particularly fascinated by the prison escape episodes. Although one recent episode was so harrowing that I felt quite down and angry afterwards.

Repeats of Gladiators on Challenge

Family Guy

American Dad

And I was addicted to Masterchef Australia for ages. I've no idea why because I'm not really into cooking.

Ice Road Truckers

Judge Judy
"If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck..."
"What are you? A NUT?"
She cracks me up

My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding/Christening/Christmas/
Funeral. I love looking at the big ass dresses :o
Columbo, Cracker, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Glee, Man VS Food, Judge Judy and there's a newish Judge I watch on YouTube, a young American lady, I think her name might be Faith.

Ah yes, Monk. I love that show too.

Sabrina the teenage witch 🧙‍♀️

I know its an old show but i love it and got the box set a couple of years ago, im 40 😂

Made in Chelsea
Love Island
First Dates

RuPaul’s drag race...Actually addicted and binge watching my way through the older series on Netflix.

First Dates
Family guy
Mr Robot

And remembered I like Empire and Star too. They're so far fetched and tacky (both by the same people).

90 day Fiancé
Arranged
Neighbours with benefits 😲

'Just one more thing...'

I used to go into my parents house and they'd have on Monk or Diagnosis Murder and I'd comment along the lines of 'oh ffs, you's watch some crap'. Then I'd find reasons to have to stay a little bit longer because I'd get sucked in and need to see who the murderer was.

Oh and The Father Dowling mysteries I think it was called too......they loved that!

I watched father Dowling every day when I was on maternity leave years ago.

DD and I love Bondi beach rescue. I like dance moms and I used to love big fat Texas or whatever it was called. Now that was trashy.

I also like a touch of frost and all the poirots, marples and things on itv3.

Ru Paul's drag race, can't believe how much (s) he looks like Tyra Banks

The chase
Pointless

I watch repeat episodes of Who Wants to be a Millionaire quite regularly on challenge, I got to the point where I was actually watching clips on YouTube .. a few of the chasers from the chase were on it actually!

Classic corrie & eastenders
the bill
The peep show
Sabrina teenage witch
4 in a bed
Random murder programmes
Gavin and Stacey

Robot Wars for me, love the carnage.

Diagnosis Murder, great choice
So is Murder she wrote @Mumthedogsbeensick

@IamFrauBlucher oh I have had Friends as background in the past for some periods yes
@SymphonyofShadows wait where can I watch the Originals???

OK I will also add that when I was a teen I would watch soap operas
Proper Venezuela and Mexico imported ones.

I have watched desperate housewives 3 times. I also liked gossip girl.

@MrsJayy 
@RegularShowRules exactly. I'm almost 40 I enjoy watching high school American kids get in situations that would never happen

@trinitybleu Nate 😍 I did check his age before I decided I like him. I like Chuck more. I am ill 😫

Do I need to watch thus Housewives stuff?

The Royal & Heartbeat, to a lesser extent. I know they are so very twee, but I just love imagining what life was like in those times

I watch neighbours every day.

I like re-runs of inspector morse on itv3.

I also have a soft spot for an Island Parish when it's on.

I don't watch anything like I'm a celeb or love island anymore - I don't think you can be embarrassed by them though as everyone watches them!
