We might be reluctant to admit it in mixed company, but we all have at least one tv show that we watch faithfully every week regardless of what's going on at home. For me, it used to be "The X-Files." Even though I taped it for the archives, if I had to miss it "live" and didn't get a chance to watch it late Sunday night, I was at a loss the next morning at work when everybody was talking about what happened to Mulder and Scully. When the closing credits were playing, I could usually count on my friend Steve, another X-Files fanatic, to call so we could discuss the show. Now that "The X-Files" is off the air (although it will be aired forever in syndication), "CSI" has taken its place. While "CSI" is a consistant top-ten show in the ratins and has spawned two other hit "CSI" shows, I've had a hard time finding CSI fanatics to discuss the week's episode. That was before I found www.televisionwithoutpity.com.
TelevisionWithoutPity is a forum for TV lovers. There's a section for most of the current drama or science fiction tv shows. They even have original series from HBO, Showtime, and MTV. You can read very in-depth re-caps from previous episodes, and if you want to express your opinion you can post on the message boards. Back in the summer, I spent an hour one evening actually LOL while reading the message boards about Jessica and Ashlee Simpson's tv shows. What was so funny wa not the comments themselves, but the fact that while these people were merciless a they trashed the shows, they apparently watched the shows on a regular basis or else they wouldn't know the details. For some reason TWOP dropped their forums about Jessica and Ashlee's shows. But don't let that hinder you - go check out their site.
