Guilty Pleasure TV/Music

[orlyb1310]

Life's too short for guilty pleasures!! Enjoy your shitty reality tv and the oldies radio station with your whole chest

 

[abitfairytale]

I made sure I put TV/Music in the topic header just to reiterate that the thread was NOT purely due to self-isolating boredom

Two questions:

1) Favourite guilty pleasure TV

Mine was Jane McDonald's Travel programme. I realise as a 35yr old, I'm slightly too young for her target demographic, but some of those holiday's/city breaks looked lush!!!

Also quite partial to a Channel 5 royal history documentary, particularly about Henry VIII (+wives) or Edward/Wallace!!!

2) Guilty pleasure radio/music

I will admit to being a BBC Radio 2 fiend.... Fave shows are weekday mornings with Ken Bruce (love Pop Master), but it's a Saturday for me - Rylan followed by Liza Tarbuck!! Bloody love it. Also very partial to Heart 80's/90's.


For the record, yes I maybe 35 but apparently I'm going on 45/55...

I love ‘trashy’ documentaries but they seem to be less common these days and I’ve seen most of the old ones on YouTube

Also BBC Doctors, the afternoon soap. It’s just so unrealistic and bizarre but in a fun way. The Facebook group is great, I love going on there to read viewers criticism, ideas, and poems

Ooh Casualty is mine. Its so unrealistic and I always end up shouting at the TV, especially any birth stuff but I bloody love it (and Dylan)

Fleetwood Mac is not a guilty pleasure, it's classsic

 

[IndigoViolet]

Law & Order on 5 USA for weekday TV. They sometimes throw some Murder She Wrote into the mix too.
Loving Heart 80’s radio wise.

Most things on MTV, would never admit that in real life.
Smooth radio.

 

[no-no]

Seeing a lot of guilty pleasures on the unpopular opinion thread so thought I’d bump this.

I miss the days we had cheesy bangers like this




Love, peace, I’m out of here brothers…

I'm a sucker for a programme about property like hotels etc. Like There was a channel 5 series about iconic hotels, that sort of thing I like.

Also stuff like about holiday parks, cruise ships, really random stuff like that. Those fly on the wall, behind the scenes shows.

I think it comes from growing up loving watching Airline on TV.

All of your no 2 favourites!

TV ... currently Tenable at 3 pm with the lovely Warwick Davies ... can stop work early (home working although that’s gone quiet), veg for an hour and then oops, it’s time to get tea ready. It’s like school hours really.

I like tenables I love it if I get all 10 in a list.
