Are you a pimp?

C’mon, fess up! I know you’ve had this happening to you.  I mean, instances like going out of your way to hype a TV show you really, really enjoy to anyone who may listen — families, friends, strangers, the neighbor’s dog.

You know…you’re at a party amongst your friends and the conversation switches to television. You can’t help but blast about "Current Favorite Show of the Season" (supply whatever TV show title here)…because, well,  it’s your favorite.  But when you’re friends tell you, "No, we have not seen that" (Their translation: We have a social life. Your translation: You’re so lame, you don’t know what’s IN!) you start evangelizing about it. Non-stop. All night long….that they had to leave the party. Or throw you out.

Ever have this happening to you?

Pushing Daisies,  a visually stunning series about a young man who has the ability to bring dead people back to life, would have to be one show I’ve pimped…or pushed real hard.  The minute I read about it plot’s synopsis as early as spring of last year, I knew this was a show I would love and love to talk about. 

But if I’d have to come up with a list of TV shows I’ve pimped and evangelized (that’s two words that you don’t often see in one sentence!), it would take me a while to build it. TV has been a huge part of me for as long as I can remember.  And my addiction for it has gone full pedal with the internet… you know, being the gateway to all that is free and downloadable (mwahahah!), I can catch any TV show I fancy at my convenient time. Suffice to say, I’ve got a long list.

So, instead of coming up with mine….I’d like to see what’s yours. This may sound a lot more interesting and I might even become your convert!

What TV show have you told people about and insisted they MUST WATCH?
