College football would probably get me to turn on the news...... blech!

Though this complete college football hater is still kicking someone's butt in the College Pick'Em.... :P

I might watch a little C-SPAN. I dunno. There is just something about watching all these "journalists" orgasm over Obama that makes me want to barf. I might watch a little FoxNews but they start to get on my nerves. The only way I would watch MSNBC is if someone paid me a hefty sum of cash. Like 6 figures.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta (I know...I know) is on Bravo tonight. I'll prolly watch that and do my bible study lesson for tomorrow morning.

I can assure you one thing, David will be avoiding the news. He's so right when he says that the outcome of the election will be exactly the same if we watch or not. He's is so smart.

Seriously, I may tune in to VH1 to see if they have any of those "junk food for the brain" shows on tonight. I hope to avoid some of the more clearly partisan analysts who will have foamy spittle running down their chins as they "project" at high volume the significance of alleged exit polling in states of relatively little significance to the electoral college. IMO, one of two things will happen tonight. Either the winner will become clear early, or the whole thing will remain up in the air until tomorrow (or beyond, depending on legal challenges.) I don't expect the totals to reveal themselves in a neat and orderly manner.

At 10ish, I'll tune to a local station to find out the non-final results of the state questions and local races, and I'll look for an update on the internet around midnight.

They have a stupid Trading Spouses marathon for a while (I hate it when they show marathons of shows from other networks) then at 8mt they show the weekly repeats, since no shows have new eps on Tuesdays. This week's Charm School, Celebrity Rehab from last Thursday, then this week's Pick Up Artist, Real Chance of Love and Scream Queens in some sort of order.

If you have VH1 Classic you can watch a "The Drug Years" marathon.

Ms. Camaro has given the best description of those faux journalists and news babes yet.

Awesome!

I might just have to tune into CNN to watch Campbell Brown (ick!) smear her lipstick with all that drool.

Yes, the outcome will be what it is whether I'm watching or not (I've had to apply this principle to the Dallas Cowboys games the last few weeks as well).

I like VH1 Classic, especially when they run the block of 80s videos. Some of them are such a hoot!

That's right!

It's Tuesday, so it's a new episode of Dirty Jobs!

That's one of our favorite shows.

In my mind, nothing will ever top the cow-impregating episode where the guy explains to Mike about matching the bulls with the cows based on their physical attributes.

But, still, an overall excellent show.

I like Charles Gibson. He's no Peter Jennings, but he'll do. I may watch the poker at 10 merely out of curiosity over what it could be since they haven't played any more after cutting down to the final nine...

VH1 Classic was the bomb back when I first got expanded cable 6 years ago. All videos all the time.... just like music television was supposed to be.

About 3 years ago, it began to turn into VH1 Lite.....

Now I only watch it in the morning when I get home from work. And I still got to turn off the ^^#@ 5 minute long Rock Band reality promos they show every other hour..... :evil:

I liked Tim a lot.

I will miss Dan Rather the way you'd miss not having a stray cat in heat underneath your open bedroom window at 3 a.m. on a hot, sweaty Texas night.

Seriously, I won't watch until later...around 10 or so...to see if it's over.

And then any old station will do- I'm not interested in the backstory or the pundits' analyses...just the results.

If this election turns out to be close, watching MSNBC could be a lot of fun if Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann look like they may explode.

And if Donna Brazile is on, I'm turning off that channel.

I do what I do in football season, use the PIP on my set to split the screen... keep CNN on one side and flip the others around to see what's interesting.

It will be tough to have CNN on your split screen and not see Donna Brazile, sss.

She doesn't work for MSNBC; she works for CNN.

I just got an email from Ralph Nader that said if you are interested in third party results, Fox News is the only one that has committed to providing it, most of the major networks are apparently not going to include it in their results.

Lol...and Ralph is shipping out an autographed copy of his book to anyone who donates at least $100 to his campaign...so imagine the surprise the Nigerians would get in exchange for their $5 million check...that could buy a lot of books!!
