I've been steadily maintaining my addiction to Chopped All Stars (love to see the judges in the hot seat!) and Top Chef All Stars (my vote is for subtlely crazy Richard!). Erik is on board with watching the shows and is into the excitement; I'm glad to have a buddy for the ride. We were thinking of having a Chopped competition of our own. If the ingredients were ham, cheese and bread, Erik would be a shoo-in.
"Winning!"And after hearing an awesome piece on PBS' This American Life a couple years ago about people who buy unclaimed storage lockers, I wanted to pee my pants with excitement over A&E's new show Storage Wars. Alas, it's a little too staged for my liking, but I'll still DVR a marathon just to listen to Barry's quips.
This all, of course, is in addition to anything on HGTV - especially Cash & Cari and The Antonio Treatment. Side note: After enjoying House Hunters for years, I will never look at it the same way after learning a crucial piece about the production of the show (I won't write it here - don't want to break anyone else's heart).
Don't feel bad for Erik - he has plenty of time to play his Legos games on the Playstation. We are an equal opportunity TV household.

love me some top chef. i'm always using the lingo to describe lunch to the kiddos... 'a duo of....' or 'a trio of...' . i vote for richy too.
I'm definitely a HH fan. You have to tell me what the deal is!
Kristen - a duet of peanut butter and jelly sounds much more palatable.
Kelly - they choose couples that are already in escrow with one of the houses. So there is no "choice" to be made!!! Now I look for "tells" while they tour houses - trying to see which one they already picked ahead of time.
as an avid HH fan, you just broke my heart a little bit.
I found this out when I looked into how the couples get compensated for the show (word on the street is they get $500 and their mugs on TV). I still watch the show, though!
