Your guilty pleasure show
I'm interpreting 'guilty pleasure show' as something that I watch that other people might think I'm a little strange or mad for watching:
Timmy Time: This is a sort of kindergarten spin-off of Shaun the Sheep. I adore Shaun the Sheep, but I don't think it's really too weird for someone my age to watch it - I mean, it's not weird to watch Sarah Jane or Wallce and Gromit, is it? However, Timmy Time is aimed at infants. We're talking pre-school here. It doesn't have the clever allusions that make Shaun the Sheep an enjoyable thing for adults. It just features Timmy being cute and usually very naughty, and playing with his friends a lot. I love his teacher, and I love the baby hedgehog, and the way the kitten goes 'mew mew'[1]. And I love the theme tune - I know all the words, and if I'm with my Mum I sing them when it comes on (I do this with Shaun the Sheep too). There's no rational reason for watching it, except that it's sort of sweet and comforting, and I think Timmy is the cutest thing ever.
[1] And I'm not a kitten fan at the best of times, ask anyone!
By the way, UK people should know that the new series of Shaun the Sheep started yesterday, and is on every day at 3.55pm on BBC1 :)
