"Guilty pleasure " movies/tv shows, what's yours?

[Dogdragoness]

Mine is ... Sappy feel good romances and romantic comedies like Jane Austen's Emma, and movies like Miss Congeniality and Penelope with Christina Ricci (which is one of my favorite movies!!! What can I say I am a fan of awesome on-screen kisses

But the other side of this is movies like Labyrinth and the dark Chrystal

So ... What's yours?

 

[JacksonsMom]

My guilty pleasures that I often don't want to 'admit' that I watch are Pretty Little Liars and Switched at Birth. lol. They can be sooo ridiculously corny, but I still watch. Same with Once Upon a Time.

I don't really have guilty pleasure shows. Besides maybe Grey's Anatomy. Lol I love Once Upon a Time, too.

I have guilty pleasure books, however. Vampire romance novels. I think it's the Brotherhood series? Can't remember the author name.

 

[Laurelin]

Trashy reality TV. :rofl1::rofl1::rofl1:

And some anime.

 

[MicksMom]

Judge Judy! After all, Days of Our Lives is must see tv, right? Books- I love trashy romance novels.

 

[Linds]

I feel NO guilt! I love all my TV shows and movies no matter how cheesy they are and will talk about them all at length and with pride!

I also refuse to feel any guilt about my reading choices be it books or even my beloved fanfiction. NO SHAME!

 

[Elrohwen]

Well, I'm watching the Bachelor right now, so... Lol

I like complete opposites. My ultimate guilty pleasures are horrible Mtv reality shows (Real World, 16 and Pregnant, Teen Mom, etc) and stuff on PBS Masterpiece Classic and Mystery. Downton Abbey, Sherlock, and Mr Selfridge are current favs but I own DVDs from a lot of Jane Austen mini-series and others. I like to balance my trashy tv with classy tv. Haha

And some anime.

Anime is not a guilty pleasure. Anime is a part of life.

...I watched Toddlers and Tiaras with my sister on Netflix this last weekend. I'm so embarrassed admitting that, but we find the show so hilarious LOL I just like reality shows about crazy people in general.

Also, I used to watch Vampire Diaries but stopped at Season 3 because then it got too terrible even for me. I also will watch bad Disney movies (like, the straight to DVD sequels of the classics). I never like them, but there's something satisfying about watching a movie that's just plain bad.

Exactly. Zero guilt here. Good lord, I spent a big chunk of a day watching old Major Dad episodes one day!

This!

Elrohwen, how can Downton Abbey be a guilty pleasure? 'Tis wonderful. <3

I thought that until my aunt watched one episode and said "It's a soap opera. You are watching a soap opera."

And I realized she was right.

 

[Assamiea]

Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, the LOTR trilogy (is it bad that I own the regular DVDs and the extended editions for all three?) and Interview With A Vampire. I could watch those all day, every day.

 

[Tortilla]

Coronation Street. :rofl1:

 

[LostAndConfused]

Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, the LOTR trilogy (is it bad that I own the regular DVDs and the extended editions for all three?) and Interview With A Vampire. I could watch those all day, every day.

How is Interview with a Vampire a guilty pleasure? Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, young Kirsten Dunst, and Antonio Banderas.


Supernatural
Merlin
I was watching The Vampire Diaries, but have given up on that.

Ummm, I take offense to Supernatural being a guilty pleasure. I wear my Supernatural love loud and proud, as should everyone!

 

[LostAndConfused]

My husband hates it so much. I now can't decide if I watch it because I love it, or if I just want to drive him crazy (it's because I love it)

 

[Elrohwen]

Equinox, I was watching Toddlers and Tiaras one day and my husband walked in. He watched 5 minutes and said "I feel kind of dirty now". LOL. It's like watching a train wreck and I can't stop.

Agreed! Watching the S7 finale right now... I can't believe it took me this long to start watching, but boy I'm glad I did. I've watched almost the whole thing in a couple weeks. It's great to have on while I'm drawing!

I don't consider anything I like a "guilty pleasure" really. True Blood is campy as hell but I love it and am not ashamed to talk about it! I guess I used to enjoy watching the rare episode of Jerry Springer or similar shows but now that I don't have a TV I don't do that. That's all I'd feel guilty about :rofl1:

Yeah, basically this. I lurv it though.

My husband actually loves this show, though he hates all of the other British stuff I watch (except the 5 hour version of P&P with Colin Firth). Even he says it's such a soap opera and that's why he loves it.

I consider all of the British mini series guilty pleasures because usually nobody else will watch them with me. They're so good though!
