Apologies to Spaz, another boring thread.
I don't watch the Olympics, was never a sports fan, so turned on what I thought would be the Raymond and Becker shows. (Yea, I like 'em, laugh if you must).
I was sooooo ticked off when I found, not my simple little shows, but that idiotic Survivor show being rerun. I absolutely hated that show, hated the premise, hated the greed, hated everything about the show and never watched a single episode. I have to admit I did watch for about 15 minutes once and was bored to tears.
Will this thing never go away? Enough already! What's the point of re-running these shows when everyone already knows who won the million dollars?
Edited cause Raymond has a y in it.

jada...I only watched one episode late in the season and hated it myself. I still can't understand how anyone finds eating rats and turning into one yourself being very entertaining.
I have a friend who sent in a video for a shot on the next series, but she hasn't heard back. Although I think she would do really well, I'm secretly hoping she won't make it. I'd hate to have to watch it just so I could see her on it.

Hi Njrazd and Femme - Thanks for responding, now I don't feel so alone.
Njrazd - If your friend gets a spot, I will have to break my own rules and watch. After all, it'll be sort of knowing a celebrity, (from far, far away).

Count Me In Too! Didn't Watch and Won't Watch! The premise that you had to cut everyone down to make $$$$ was to much for me.
What has happened to TV? Where are the good old shows like . . .well, like. .no..Well I'll get back to you!

JADA --- Yea, I would put Freddy The Freeloader up against the so called "Survivors" anyday!!!
And My Mother said that the Grape Dinosour is no worse than "It's Howdy Doody Time, It Howdy Doody Time . ." but I just don't remember it like that.
And How about the Lone Ranger and His Side Kick Tonto!
Oh Oh what was that one called where the guy always went deep sea diving. Sea Hunt? or something like that?
Then there was Perry Mason that lawyer/crime solver who could get the job done in a "hour"!
Mannix-- now he was good!
Too old well I do recall spenting Friday in front of the telly watch "DALLAS" just waiting for J.R. to get his just desserts but that may just be a Texas thing.
These days I if turn the TV on I usually take a nap, but that may just be an old thing I don't know!

I wish I'd read this thread last night - it would have put me in a much better mood!
I thought I was the only one who detested the whole Survivor - Brother kind of shows. Nice to see I'm not alone. I saw about ten minutes of the brother show and threw up. Well, not literally - but, it was nauseating.
My favorite oldies include Dick Van Dyke, Andy Griffith and I Love Lucy - in that order.
