I am not a hardcore homophobe, so please do not take it that way.

But..........I am so sick of almost ALL of the home improvement shows purposely showcasing Homosexual couples in their shows. It is meant to normalize these realtionships.....they show these couples over and over again.............stop it!!!!!!

PS: Is it true that Ty Pennington is NOT gay...........LOL, hard to believe.

That Geico pig commercial........I fricken hate it. Is it meant to insult the viewers intelligence or what?? Maybe it was OK for a special occasion like the Superbowl. But to make this pathetic commercial a regular.....what are they thinking at Geico???

I actually emailed Geico about this horrible commercial.....lot of good that will do.

It's not wholesome -- it's like child porno. I don't care if this is a tradition in the south, it's a stupid tradition. At least don't show it on tv.

I will refuse to watch those stupid Pawn shows. My husband loves them but they are the worst. And all that crap on A&E now like Shipping War? Are you kidding me? I watched one episode with him last night of Shipping Wars and it was the most boring thing ever. I also will not watch:

Towing/Repo/etc type "reality" shows - so scripted and fake!
Desperate Housewives/Housewives of DC
Toddlers & Tiaras
Mystery Diagnosis - I used to like it, but its the same formula every time, I hate the backgrounds and how the people close their eyes all slow like super dramatic.
Glee
South Park or any other offensive cartoon. Some people love stuff like that but I hate the amount of profanity they use.
Home Improvement shows
Makeover shows!

I could probably go on...

Napolean Dynamite the TV Show. What is with Fox and their string of new rotten animated shows one after the other? The Cleveland Show was pretty bad compared the The Family Guy and American Dad( it could have been funny with a major rewrite). Then there was that show about liberal school teachers or something by King Of The Hill which sucked, that new one about that Donald Trump Kid which sucked, the Bob's Burger show which sucked badly, and now this.
bad commerical: That Geico one with the rowing guinea pigs. Was a slightly cute scene of rowing guinea pigs supposed to carry an otherwise creatively weak commercial?
Also the Flo insurance commericals are getitng pretty weak.

When I watch it with myhubby everytime they show them closing their eyes I say, "They like to show them closing their eyes" "They like to show them closing their eyes." It happens so often my hubby gets tired of me saying it. I think it is funny, but he doesn't get the joke. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Born and raised in New England, I lived there for 34 years. I now live in the South. It's not a tradition here.
