1. Murder, She Wrote, is one of the newest (well...oldest, but new to me) TV show's that I watch. It's usually on TV at 12 am to 2pm and then at 10pm to 12pm everyday. It began in 1984 and lasted until 1996, 12 seasons long. It follows a mystery writer named J.B. Fletcher (Angela Lansberry, who is pretty much the coolest female residing on this planet) who seems to come across murder everywhere she turns. It's riveting, scary, funny, and heartwarming. But it's old, you protest, well if you think about it, most of the stuff we watch today will be considered old. Does that make it any less good? A hundred dollar bill is still a hundred dollar bill even if it has a little dust on it. And besides there is no expiration date on crime solving genius.
2. Merlin, is another great show that doesn't have inappropriate stuff in it. It's a mix between fantasy and Sci Fi ( I know I'm a dork, I have accepted my inner nerdiness), and luckily puts a twist on the King Arthur tale that does NOT involve affairs. This series has just wrapped up it's third season and will soon be diving into it's 4th.
3. Larkrise to Candleford, is an amazing BBC show set in Victorian England, that follow's Laura Timmons, a girl from the poor hamlet of Larkrise, who travels a very short distance away to the wealthier Candlford to work for her Couisn, Ms. Lane, who is in charge of the Post office. This show tugs at your every emotion and takes you into the lives of every character, and you never want to leave. Though a warning, while the second, third, and fourth season's are impeccably appropriate, the first season does include Ms. Lane harboring feelings for her childhood Sweetheart who is married but also harbor's feeling for her. They don't act on it, but it's there. And the guy goes away after the first season. Anyways, don't let that stop you from seeing this great series, at least give the second season a try.
4. I know you thought you knew that scope of my nerdiness but you were wrong, one of my favorite shows featured in TV form is (Drum Roll) Egypt Unwrapped, an interesting show that explores modern day discoveries of Egypt and disscuses the history of Pyramids and all the things of that sort. (P.S. it's always been my dream to go to Egypt and I will, violence or not, I will go there, and I will get my cheap little pharaoh doll souvenir, and I am so fine with dying in the attempt! I shall succeed!)
5. And then there is Big Time Rush, where the main character's are pretty much your dream boyfriends. And they sing. This show is cute and fun and I watch it whenever I'm bored, cuz it's basically always playing. You think it'll stop, but no, on it goes.
And those are my top 5 favorite TV shows. Now what about you? What are yours? Are the shows you watch clean? Would I not flee in horrified terror if I were to watch it? Do yo feel good when you watch these shows? What's the moral? Are the character's good people? These are important questions that can help you make the right choice when evaluating your media. So make a good choice and watch the show's that you know you could watch anywhere and with anyone.
