What shows do you enjoy that you're not necessarily proud to admit?

My fiancee' is a big fan of Glee, and I've got to say, I've started to be a fan.  My biggest "guilty pleasure" show is Hell's Kitchen, though.  I'm addicted to that show.  I'm not sure what's so entertaining about watching reality contestants get belittled, but this is one of only a handful of shows that I either watch or record every week.

maybe it's not a guilty pleasure, but what about The Boondocks on Cartoon Network/Adult Swim? has anyone even seen or heard of the show? it's a great show.

House Hunters and Property Virgins on HGTV.  It makes me really want to move to Atlanta, you can get a mansion down there for the price of a 1000 sq ft condo in boston.

I can agree with both. Hell's Kitchen, like all Ramsey shows, is so fake -- yet I keep watching it.

While I have missed many episodes of Glee and want to fast forward on many occasions, I have watched most of the episodes and generally like the show. I actually loved when they did To Sir With Love in what I guess was the season finale -- obvious move in hindsight, but brilliant for any fan who has seen the movie.

I don't think there is anything embarrassing about watching that or Adult Swim in general. That is a very good show.

It's considered a classic by most people I know.

Gotta say Jersey Shore. Don't know why my remote gravitates towards it, but I have trouble turning it off.

True Blood. The storylines are adolescent at best, but I keep coming back for more.

Any show about midgets, I mean, little people.  I have no idea why, but I'm fascinated.

Well, at least it doesn't bother like the majority of the shows my daughter watches.

Hell's Kitchen is a must on the DVR, along with Real World/Road Rules Challenges.  For some reason the spirit of competition makes me intrigued with these shows.

Jersey Shore as well.

For some reason I'm into the show Weeds.  It was good in its earlier seasons and got corny during seasons 4 and 5, but its good for a laugh, even if it is about a pot-dealing mom of two.
