I went on a Sandra Bullock kick and have been watching rom-coms. The Proposal, Miss Congeniality, and The Lost City. I hate the trope of successful but sad woman finds happiness with a dude/embracing her feminine frailty/etc.
But I love all of these movies and will always rewatch them.
What else do you hate to love?

I have been craving a good viewing of While You Were Sleeping - I used to watch that all the time. Please put it on your list!
Hallmark movies are my guilty pleasures. They all follow the same formula, but usually there's a cute guy and I don't have to pay attention too much to the storyline because it always goes the same way. I DVR all the new ones. I even save some of my favorites for repeat viewings.

Train-wreck reality TV shows. Since I have only Netflix at home I am especially guilty of this when tucked into bed by myself in a hotel room.
My 600-lb. Life
Teen Mom
Married at First Sight
My Lottery Dream Home (some people are sensible but some go nuts with high-maintenance gardens, massive pools and lawns, and square footage that will cost a fortune in utilities).

While you were sleeping was weekly viewing in college with my roommates. I watched it a few months ago with DD13, it held up surprisingly well.
I've been craving a good 90s rom com like 10 things I hate about you. Need to figure out which one to watch this weekend. Would be great if it was something for DD13 too.
Survivor is my guilty pleasure. Seen every episode.

Hallmark movies are a good escape from reality. Yes, there's a formula but sometimes you need a little happy escape.
I got hooked on one season of Love After Lockup. We watched some of 90 Day Fiance.
I watched the original Teen Mom. I also watched the first few seasons of the Real Housewives of Orange County back when it was just them and later NYC.

Oh geez. I hate to admit it. It's almost embarrassing.
I watch 90 Day Fiance and the spinoffs.

Eating peanut butter with a spoon right out of the jar.
Fondling fiber. I took a spinning class and I'd go to class early just to pet all the fibers. |

I can't stand Hallmark movies and rom-coms.
My guilty pleasure is 90 Day Fiance.

My standard answer, there's nothing guilty about pleasure. But to answer your question, Big Brother.

I love the goofy John Candy movies from the 80's (The Great Outdoors, Uncle Buck, Summer Rental). My 600Ib Life and Hoarders Judge Judy (now Judy Justice)
80's hair band music (my niece recently asked me WTH that is...she is 22). Def Leopard is my favorite.

I was stuck at the hospital for 2 afternoons while my relative was having surgery. One of those days the television was on HGTV, and I was watching back-to-back home remodeling shows, and loving every minute of it.  |

There’s a British show called Escape to the Country that I like to watch. Very similar to House Hunters except they visit amazing, usually historic houses. The only problem is I now really, really want to retire to a barn conversion - One of those big stone barns, hundreds of years old. We don’t have those in the US South.  |

Hoarders. I haven't had cable for almost 20 years so when I can park it in front of someone else's, I watch Hoarders. Then go home and clean!

Hoarders has the same effect on me. I stopped watching old episodes at bedtime because I didn't want to be energized to clean that late at night.

Expedition Unknown and/or Expedition X marathons. Last Saturday EX because I was tired from all the fun I have during the week. I can get Lucy Worsley Investigates on hoopla. I haven't tried the video offerings. She acts out and researches historical stuff on PBS. Not necessarily a thing to binge. Food wise: cool whip and fruit or chocolate animal crackers. M&M peanuts. Large amounts of black coffee. I usually have a mug of coffee with me in the morning. Afternoon I'm off coffee.

I currently have over 50 episodes of Chicago PD on my DVR. I have also found out that I like them enough that they are not background noise. I actually watch them.
It's not good for my sleep because they are keeping me up until 3 or 4 AM.

You need to either make your cats watch these shows to or train them how to feed themselves first thing in the morning as this is not good |
