GUILTY PLEASURES
We all have them. We pick a show or episode from a favorite show that is somewhat "guilty"
Some of my pics
JOAN OF ARCADIA It ran for only two seasons but it was kinda fun and quirky at times
DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES I loved the first season but dropped it midway thru Season 3. I did tune in for the finale. Felt I owed it that much.
MISTRESSES This is a new one just started. I recall one of the BBC by the same title. I happened to tune in and can see that this is just a rehash of the BBC series. The plot is identical. Is it watchable? I doubt it but Alyssa Milano is smoking hot.
DALLAS The new series. I got hooked on this and actually enjoy it. Can't wait to see the third season next January.
Be interested to hear some of yours

Doctor Who's bisexual mate played by John Barrowman leads an entirely bisexual team of Alien fighters to battle villains such as: a terrible CGI demon thing, a cyber woman, a group of cannibals, a terrible CGI version of death and (I'm serious), a sex monster that feeds off orgasms. Oh, and the whole thing takes place entirely in Cardiff.
It was branded as "Doctor Who for adults" when really it was just "Doctor Who with worse acting, worse characters, some blood and lots of sex and swearing", but it really was enjoyable.
And then surprisingly the third series was actually really good. It was hard to believe that you were watching the same show.
And then season 4 was co produced by an American network, they introduced a bunch of awful characters and it was no longer brilliant, it wasn't even shit but enjoyable. It was just boring.
I am a huge fan of this American classic which ran for 11 seasons, from 1989 to 1990 and from 1991 to 2001.
I used to know all my Baywatch girls as well as my Bond-girls.
Probably about 15-20 Baywatch girls had recurring roles over the years. I am talking official life-guard roles of course.
In Baywatch world, life-guards are hired first and foremost for their cheerleader appeal and "form" when running along the beach.
It's one of the great cheeseball dramas, but it has it's own distinct charm. I would say classic Baywatch is the first 6 seasons. Then it got real tacky, which isn't actually a bad thing, as it transitioned post Pamela Anderson. Anderson was such an iconic star of the show, that they overcompensated for her loss, by overloading with a bevy of new boob-job actresses, including Carmen Electra.
Eventually they got back to a more manageable cast. The final season did not include the Hoff though. I don't think Baywatch was meant to be, minus the Hoff.
The early seasons have almost an innocence about them. The characters dedication to live-saving and their own personal dramas is so very earnest. ;)
Unfortunately this show is not available on dvd in North American beyond the first four seasons. The complete series seem to exist in the Euro market only. Germany in particular. The Hoff factor I guess.
I of course do own the first four seasons on dvd, but some day I've got to get hold of a PAL or an all-region player I guess, and order the 7 remaining seasons.
The 1990's decade was defined by Brozzer Bond and Baywatch.
It's very good indeed. Now, it's in the same vain but Murder, She Wrote is a real guilty pleasure of mine.
I remember my mom watching re-runs as I grew up. Such a class show.
Although it was created by the same people, I'm not a big fan of Murder, She Wrote - it is definitely classed rightly as a GUILTY PLEASURE!
The bulk of the series is very good. Though avoid it's 5th season at all costs, It's a terrible season with new shoehorned characters, crazy plot and repeated jokes. It's also why Brosnan couldn't do The Living Daylights, however It's good Dalton got the role as Brosnan still looked too young despite being in his mid 30's at the time. Anyway that's my Guilty pleasure. :)

In terms of shows, I used to watch 'The OC' when it was on every week. It's quite embarrassing, but it had its moments. My new guilty pleasure (thanks to the never-ending stampede of 'Watch this, watch that.' by my girlfriend) is 'The Fosters.' I...it's enjoyable.
Desperate Housewives I thought used to be quite smart for a dramedy/soap/melodrama. The first season I enjoyed shamelessly. Then it became a caricature of itself and I stopped watching it.
One of my favourite Tv shows, though technically Movies. Peter Falk is a legend. I think the only one i have never seen is the last one he did. Owned various Box sets over the years.
the shame. Occasionally I keep up with the Kardashians. L-)
I always thought Miami Vice was highly regarded as a tv show. Now after The Wire I don't think any cop show holds a candle to it, still Miami Vice is nice in an escapist way.
Showgirls
D.O.A
Dr Strange
an entire slew of cheap horror film including many trashy 80s Italian horror flicks
and the utterly abysmal yet oh so amusing Blood Feast
I love the work of Dario Argento, in particular Suspiria and Tenebrae
I have a movie in mind which is the ultimate definition of a 'Guilty Pleasure'.
Escape To Victory. I love it not because I love films (it's an utterly crap movie) but because I love football. Pele scores an overheard kick and Stallone saves a last gasp penalty. What's not to love about that?
since when is D.O.A. trashy?
