TV shows you will hesitantly admit to watching

Okay, what TV shows do you watch that you may be somewhat hesitant to admit? I'm not talking about the shows you watch that every other guy watches. I'm talking about the ones you got sucked into watching (most likely by a girl) and have somehow kept watching. I'll go first, since I posed the question. I will admit that with my wife I watch and actually enjoy:
- True Blood
- Most any singing competition show (X Factor, American Idol, The Voice, America's Got Talent, etc.)

Alright. In this case sucked in by 2 women (wife and daughter). Dance Moms (original, not current Miami version) and So You Think You Can Dance. As background, my daughter is a dancer.

Yeah, my wife is addicted to So You Think You Can Dance as well and, as a result, I have been "forced" to watch it as well from time to time. I must admit though, there is some SERIOUS "talent" on there.

Damn MJ... it sounds like we're married to the same woman. She loves all of those Reality Shows you've mentioned... PLUS Hell's Kitchen, all other Chef/Cooking shows, Modeling/Fashion Shows, other Dancing Shows, Bachelor/Bachelorette Shows, Love in the Wild, Big Brother... the list goes on and on. You name it.. if it's a reality show, my wife wants to watch it. SMDH
Btw... I'm guilty on all counts. lol

All of the stupid reality House Wives shows plus the fictional Army Wives. I get sucked into watching those with my wife.

That's ok, cuz where I'm considered lucky (compared to most guys) is... my wife also LOVES to watch football (all levels). She not only watches, she knows the game and will make calls (plays and penalties) during the game, like any football fanatic man does. She also loves to watch college basketball... and at times, even the UFC. What makes it fun, is how she yells at the refs, players, coaches, etc... she will scream at the TV the same as she does at a live event. Hell, she gets more fired up than I do most of the time. What can I say... I'm blessed. lol
Now you can understand why I give her a pass when it comes to reality shows.

The good thing is my wife isn't into all of the Bachelor/Bachelorette type shows. She is into some really obnoxious shows like the Real Housewives of _________, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, etc., but she knows to not even try to watch those with me around b/c I have to draw the line somewhere.
Like your's, JJ, my wife is a HUGE sports fan and would rather be sitting around watching football or basketball games than anything else, but on weeknights there really isn't much of a choice. My personal favotire non-sports shows are pretty much anything on History Channel, Military Channel, NatGeo, etc., but she loathes watching those types of shows as much as I do the sleezey shows she watches on E! (see above), so we agree to just watch those on our own or when the other one is busy or asleep.

I consider myself lucky that my wife doesn't watch football. So I can watch it by myself without hearing her make play calls. lol.
