Matt and I have rather varying taste in television. He prefers shows like Criminal Minds, NCIS, Gangland and other shows that give the general public ideas on how to be evil. Of course, he also is known to watch a sporting event or two. I prefer shows like What Not to Wear and Say Yes to the Dress. Legit girlie shows. Okay, okay...I'll admit it. I also like The Office.
But there are a few shows that we do actually typically agree on. In fact, we rather enjoy watching these together and really get into them. I thought I'd share them with you.
In no certain order:
Chopped
Four talented and recognized chefs battle to win $10, 000 by creating an appetizer, an entree and a dessert using whatever mystery ingredients are in the ominous basket. The ingredients are always the most random and sometimes completely unheard of. We always feel bad for the judges who have to eat that stuff. But it's always fun to see what they come up with.

Guy goes all over the nation eating at local eateries that have the most unusual and outstanding menu items. We love it cuz sometimes he comes to Houston and tries the food at some of our favorite places.

It's funny...most people either love Bobby Flay or hate him. We love him. He just seems really good at what he does. The premise of the show is that Bobby is presented with the challenge of recreating a dish that someone else has been made known for. He studies their method in making the dish, prepares a variant of his own and then drops in on them and challenges them to a throwdown (hence, the name of the show). I like watching the different dishes being made. My favorites are breakfast and desserts. I think Matt likes it because Bobby is always challenging himself to be and do better.

Call us old and laugh, if you will, but we say every time that someday we're gonna be on this show...as a team, of course. One of us usually can figure out half the puzzle and the other finishes it off...almost always before the contestants can figure it out. We've probably won well over a couple million dollars and trips all over the world from the comfort of our couches.

Not sure why, but for some reason we've found ourselves watching this show a lot lately when we never had before. Okay, fine. I may or may not make him watch it with me. Sometimes I wonder why I make either of us watch it. Too many horror stories and definitely too many emotions.
So, those are our joint choices for viewing pleasure. What's on your line-up these days?
