Watching the History Channel show, The Innovators: The Men who Changed America, is my most favorite TV show this week since I learned a lot about the economic history of America in the early 20th century and the last part of the 19th century. Names like Carnegie and Rockefeller and their contribution to the economic growth of America sounded pretty interesting.

#1 Diva Universal - The Trouble With Dee Dee
This feel good story about a woman-child and her father is my favorite TV show this week. I was surprised by the character and how generous and giving she was and how she sacrificed her well-being just to give to those who have nothing. And it's a comedy too!
#2 AXN - Amazing Race
I feel bad that the hippies are gone and mainly due to them foolishly losing their passports! Also, Russia is such an interesting place which the show features very well at this leg of the race.
#3 Jack TV -American Horror Story Asylum
Another freaking scary episode this week - and this time, we finally meet the people one of the sisters was feeding!
#4 History - The Fall of Penang
I thought this would be a boring show but I was very wrong. It was done in a pretty interesting manner! I hope we could have a local version of this. The Fall of Manila, perhaps?
#5 Diva Universal - Army Wives
I chanced upon this show about, well, army wives, and their episode today featured a battered army wife. The character was still young but she was tough. Domestic violence is never an easy experience.
#6 History - Mankind: The History of All of Us: Empires
A magnificent documentary! The episode I saw featured the Roman and Chinese empires.
#7 Bio - Celebrity Ghost Stories
I love this show and this week, they featured Houdini and Jonathan Scaech.
#8 Bio - Ghostly Encounters
Another show that I love watching and this week was really scary - theater ghosts!
#9 Bio - Ghostly Encounters
This episode featured a CD moving in a haunted house!
#10 Nat Geo - Is It Real: Vampires
A nice documentary featuring real vampires.
