Looking At the Show's I have DVR'd...Says Something About My Brain!

Annabellethecat66 — Sun, 02 Jun 2019 18:12:32 GMT

OMG! I just looked at the titles I have on my DVR that I've copied for another day/time.

There's "EVIL TWINS", "Forensic Files" (5 of them), several versions of "Dateline" (all are about murder mystery), "See No Evil" (about how cameras help capture mostly murders), and on and on.

OK, so there's the occasional soap (ever day, gotta have my 2 soaps), and "Game of Thrones", "Chicago PD".

But mostly it's shows about murders (people who've been caught) and police chases, etc.

I think it just MIGHT say something about my personality that I have never DVR'd any of the Hallmark series or anything remotely heartfelt and 'uplifting'.

My version of 'uplifting' is seeing a murderer or anyone who hurts (even feelings) get what's coming to them.

I think I just might need to 'unplug and plug back in' my thought process because just maybe something is misfiring.

Isn't that what they tell you to do when you call Comcast and tell them your TV is going kinda crazy?

I prefer to think of myself as someone who always wants to (at least try) to envision terrible people getting what's coming to them...yes, I'll go with that; and that way I can stay away from a psychiatrist's couch....

You bring up an interesting topic. I myself never watch true crime or fictional crime or cop shows. I’m kind of squeamish when it comes to violence. I love English shows, some comedy, cooking, and some news programs. Thank goodness for , Amazon , Netflix, and , Britbox, because reality shows and network tv aren’t my cup of tea. I don’t know or care what it says about me, I just like what I like.

@Annabellethecat66 You've been paged twice by @Tweety68 in PetLovers. I thought you would notice the page in your own thread so am posting it here.

I watch all of the murder shows on Investigation Discovery, Dateline, 20/20 & 48 hours.

Those of U who live In Connecticut will understand - I have seen more blood splatter than Dr. Henry Lee.

Hoping Joe Kenda will knock on my door!

I, too, am hooked on true crime shows. They really are fascinating. Lately I've also been watching Live PD on A and E. People really are idiots.

@ImABoor Yes, isn't he a wonder? He visited high schools in CT to let them know what the job of a medical examiner was. My children were lucky enough to attend one of his lectures.

At one point I think he was a faculty member of the University of New Haven.

They say women love true crime shows. I watch so many I.D. shows and so does my sister. See No Evil, Joe Kenda, The shows about winter (cold state) killings, the one about internet killings are some of my favorites. Evil Lives Here is another one I never miss.

I have no interest at all in true crime shows and I don’t understand the attraction to them. Currently watching the NBA finals.

I watch all the programs that @Annabellethecat66 does, but I am WAY behind with the NBA and NHL playoffs. At least I will have something to watch after they are over though.

My husband says I do need help, especially when we're driving and I point out good places to bury someone. I told him to stay on my good side and nothing will happen to him!

Annabellethecat, the saved items showing a theme are INDEED telling.

Many years ago I too discovered something about themed saves in the DVR....that my teen step daughter was preggers.

Every show she had "taped" revolved around the theme of "didn't know I was pregnant'....'teen moms'....'pregnant and alone' etc....

I told my husband I think he needs to have a sit down with her, he scoffed, she ended up coming clean so-to-speak and confssing to her dad about a week later.

Sadly there wasn't a beautiful new addition, God had other plans I guess.

I say - what we save tells alot about who we are, how we are, and what we're interested in - FOR SURE!

Your post made me recall our situation as I chuckled at yours.
