There are a lot of different programs on that require a little thought. There are a lot that don't. So, what do you like to put the brain in neatral and veg-out to?

For me, it's courtroom shows. Judge Joe Brown, The People's Court, etc. It doesn't take any thought to watch vindictive fat broads suing each other over cell phones. laugh.gif

biggrin.gif Gotta love syndi-court!
I'd have to say I like to chill and watch those shows, but if I want something to think about on the screen, I usually turn it off.

I like to think, it make the show more intresting because then there are somany different possibilities and when you find out the answer, your always suprised. Shows like LOST are good for me.

Sometimes though, i just kick back and watch some family guy or the simpsons just to laugh.

For good, mindless entertainment - toilet humor, gratuitous violence, and cruelty to just about everyone and everything - South Park wins hands-down.

South Park "Jesus vs The Devil" or "Christmas with Saddam" both were absolutely hilarious.
