Jerry Springer-Maury Povich
It's Daytime Television!
Judge Joe Brown and old rude Judy,
Making wise decisions

Soap Operas or "My Stories"
Housewives love the most,
Same stories-different channels,
Watched from Coast to Coast

Game Show Network-Family Feud
Newlyweds 'back then'
Those repeats of Millionaire
"I'd like to phone a friend"

Balladeer likes "Classic Golf"
Memories so fun,
watching Arnold Palmer
From 1961.

Black and white old reruns,
And I've heard it said,
Lassie donned a horse-suit,
And starred as Mr. Ed.

So grab you TV remote
Then try to "Press Your Luck"
No matter what the channel,
Daytime TV sucks!!!

ToeMan~
You reminded me of just why I turn THIS THING on~

I detest television ... an invention that falls so short of it's potential~

Now ... go take a walk on the wild side~

Hi Toe!
This is exactly why I don't watch TV!
Rather be here in pip any day!
Love ya, Nancy

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.

Only "daytime" tv, Toerag?  Nope - "all time" more likely.  Thanks for a fun read!

Yep, the good shows like "American Idol", "The Apprentice" and "Queer Eye for a Straight Guy" are all on at night! (grins) Oh, Oh, and "Project Runway" too.  That one really gets me thinking!

Yep,

I would say "thank heavens for DVR"... but when I was out last week, the cable went out, too... along with the AC... I had to get better in self-defense! LOL

Enjoyed this... daytime TV is the pits!! *S*

Is this a survey? 'Cause I wanna vote YES! And are surveys supposed to be this much fun? Hope and pray all is well in your world and you're not watching daytime TV 'cause you're home trying to recuperate from somethin'!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

So true.   But...
Were it not for daytime television and the Weekly World News that I always grab while in the checkout line at the grocery store...I would have no education at all.
Enjoyed!

NOW you tell me! I thought TV only had shows on in the evening ~ like the News, Documentaries, History Channel, etc. LOL

Loveya, Witty One!

P.S. I was addicted to Daytime Soaps when I was home with my babies! Now I'm into evening programs ~ Reality Shows! lol  I can sing and dance with the best of them (from my recliner)
