I found this article highly interesting. Particularly this chart:

Dexter, Damages, and Lie To Me (occasionally). My other currently-showing favorites are Boardwalk Empire, Weeds, and Justified. I like shows about bad people doing bad things. I watched one episode of Mad Men and decided all those people just needed to die. Advertising and screwing around is not enough of a crime to interest me.

I'm pretty surprised to see Kourtney and Khloe that high on *either* list, frankly, I would've assumed the viewers of that show are too vapid to even know what political party they'd identify with, if they even thought about it all. In fact I'd go so far as to say that I'm not sure it has "fans" per se, just people who are too drunk or stoned to deal with the higher-brain functions necessary to change the channel.

I don't regularly watch any of the shows on the Democrat side, but I do watch several on the Republican side. Guess I'll have to call up the Registrar/Recorder and ditch that "Independent" party affiliation.

I don't understand why anyone watches the Kardashians either. But I make money off it, so I won't complain.

I was pondering this some more. (What can I say, I was bored while driving around running errands

How strong is the correlation between being a Republican and having a family? (I honestly have no idea.)

That's a terrific article. Thanks for the pointer.

The other day I saw this and highlighted which shows I watched in each; three in the Republican column and six in the Democrat. I still find it rather surprising that Modern Family is where it is.

And you should definitely try watching Breaking Bad. Julia and I are huge fans. I'm not sure you'd like it but you should at least give the pilot a try.

Off-topic, but I like your user pic. I'm not sure what it means, but it looks good.

You'll be a little sad to know it's a courtroom drawing of Lindsay Lohan's shoe.

Dexter is the only show on either list I've ever seen.
