Summer television sucks. With a capital “s”

Thursday’s quandary: I’m running out of space on my DVR. I’ve become a certifiable HGTV junkie. And *apparently* House Hunters, House Hunters International, and Property Virgins run several times per day (who knew?).

I did get here…somehow. There’s definitely a dearth of good television during the summer. No one is going to argue that. And now that they’ve changed the format of So You Think You Can Dance, well, I’m all like “eh” about any of the “regular” channels. So, my quick fix is multiple hours of HGTV goodness. Obviously. I’ve even gotten The Husband involved. We sit, nightly, in front of that glowing screen. Large cat on the back of the couch, rotating every few minutes to alternate her fat ass at each of our faces (why does she do that? We still can’t figure it out). Barely talking. Trying to guess which house each of the couples will select. A healthy marriage, I think. Thank you very much.

What I didn’t account for was the anger we would both feel when any one couple makes the “wrong” decision. Like that pair in Italy who selected an absolute dump. It was cheap, but caving in on itself. Price doesn’t much matter when you’re house is a pile of rubble. Or those people in Boston who chose a miniature two bedroom walkup (they will regret it sorely when with child. And stroller. And groceries. I speak from personal experience here).

On the upside, I can now redecorate any room, even a small space. (I hope you’re listening, Nate Berkus.)

What’s your favorite summer entertainment activity? I would hope it involves television.
