Change the channel every time a political ad comes on. And every time a commercial bashing men comes on.

Doesn't matter what you watch, it is what you write down that matters.
NCIS

Did you get a shiny new dollar bill with the diary? We were a Neilson family back in the day, and always looked fwd to our shiny new dollar bill. Have they raised the amount for inflation? We always just made shit up, and mailed it in. Viewed it more as a nuisance really!

Fox ran the episodes out of order, changed viewing times and rushed Joss Whedon to wrap up a story that still had to many parts to be told.
One of the best shows / writing on TV ever IMO
My condolences. I had them hooked up to my TV and the box would phone home. It would pop up on the half hour and ask who was watching it. Ie: kids, me, ect.
After half year or so I called them up and told them to get their shit out of my house. It wasn't worth the money they were paying.

i agree with you here. there was so much story there that it could have lasted for a long time without be tired of it. i feel it appealed to alot of people being a space fantasy that was alot like it western so you have people into that watching. heck my wife would watch it with me and we typically cant deiced on what to watch together.
Fox News - 18 hours of viewing per day...minimum.

Sounds like Fox news might be better run than Fox network based on the Firefly comments.
Maybe....
For the OP, all that does matter is what you write down. Been there, done that.
Look on TitanTV or wherever to see what you might have watched if you bothered, and consider that in your diary.
Please don't put down any channels that are 20% commercials (Spike for example).

Well then make note that you turned the channel during those commercials.
"Dear TV diary: Today I found some really pretty flowers outside that smelled really nice. I also watched so and so TV show. This stupid ass political ad came on and I turned it and did not continue watching that show afterwards..."
Anything other than NBC.
Law and Order SVU and most of their decent programming has turned into "Why white men are evil and Republicans ruined the world" Tv.
Owe my balls
So how much cash did you get? I've done them before and got $20 bucks the first time and $30 when I said we were a spanish speaking household.
