    Question Saturday nights- what do you watch?

    This is assuming that, like me, you're home most Saturday nights with your child(ren).

    It just seems like there's nothing on worth watching-- Cops and the Ohio Lottery gameshow are all I can even think of that's usually on.  I don't watch either one of those, so I end up flipping through cable channels.  Sometimes Iron Chef is on the Food Network- I do like that one.


    In my more energetic days, I'd just turn off the tv and find something else-- like scrapbooking-- to do.  However, being pregnant and sick, TV is about all I can handle by evening time.


    So what do you watch if you're home on Saturdays?

    I'm not a big TV person. Since we don't have kids we go out a lot on Saturday nights or go to friends' house so I don't know what comes on Saturday nights. Since we're hanging at home tonight we will probably watch a movie and relax.

    There's usually nothing on TV (in Kentucky, anyway) on Saturday nights. DH and I watched Matrix Revolutions today, and he's now playing Game Cube.

    As I typed that last sentence he shouted down the hall "You wanna do anything tonight?"

    If there was a good show on, he wouldn't even ask.

    We get Netflix, since it's cheaper than renting movies at the store. In my opinion, I like it because it I forget that I'm getting movies in the mail and which ones I have on my list, so it's always a suprise.

    Better go, the bored husband is calling. It's not enough that we're wives and do all that goes along with being a wife, but event planner/entertainment guru? I mean, really...it never ends, does it?

    Not much... Since DH works nights, I usually let it be what ever the kids are wanting to watch. Lately it has been the Disney movie on the Disney Channel... I take the time to do some deep cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom, and maybe do some extra laundry.

    There is one show that comes on, but I can't recall if it is 48 Hours or Investigative Reports. I don't typically watch it, because it comes on pretty late, but I tape it and catch it early on Sunday evening (before Cold Case )

    I don't watch Cops because, as they say, "I is one." When I was going through our academy, we used to watch Cops and WWF just about every night, just to point out and laugh about what everyone was doing wrong!

    We watch Little People Big World on TLC from 8-9 and then see if there is anything else on, if not we put in a movie.

    Usually I can't find anything to watch on Sat. Unless ABC family, TNT or TBS has a pretty decent movie or there is a good comedy on USA. Other than that I mostly don't watch TV much on Saturday's until Joe gets home and then we usually pop in a DVD or one of us will play on the computer and the other will play a video game.
