My Favorite TV Channels For 2012

 Starting last September, I decided to monitor what TV shows I loved watching every week, and what TV channels I mostly watched.  I ranked shows from #1 to #10 and gave 10 points to the #1 show, 9 points for the #2 show, and so on and so forth.  So the number beside each channel indicates the points the channel got for each show that appeared in my weekly top 10 list.

As of December 14, 2012, here is the ranking of the channels that top my TV fare.  I am not surprised that HBO tops my list since I watched a lot of HBO TV shows earlier this year.

Here are my favorite channels for the year -

#1 HBO -84

#2 Jack TV -78


#3 Crime Investigation -69

#4 Nat Geo -60

Will Smith Movie Tops My Most Favorite Show This Week

 

It's been another bumper week of good and interesting shows, at least for me.  Here are my favorite TV shows for the week ending November 9, 2012 -

#1 Star Movies - The Pursuit of Happyness

#2 Bio - Marisa Tomei

#3 Universal - Criminal Intent - I love this show!  This is actually the first episode I've seen of this show where Vincent D'Onofrio discovers that the killer he's investigating might have been his father.  Que horror!

#4 Universal - Criminal Intent - Chris Noth aka Mr. Big plays a detective in this story and it's another interesting one wherein the girl he dates in one night, kills herself the night after!

#5 Velvet - A Gifted Man- Patrick Wilson plays a doctor in this series and the episode I watched was interesting since one of his patients here dies of rabies!  I did not know rabies, when symptomatic can lead to death within 24 hours!

#6 Bio - Celebrity Ghost Stories - Paulina Porizkova is one of the storytellers of this episode that I saw.  She had a very scary story!

# 7 Bio - Celebrity Ghost Stories - Tempestt Bledsoe of The Cosby Show was one of the storytellers of this episode.

#8 Lifestyle - What Not to Wear- another episode I loved watching - the girl they chose wanted to be a journalist but she loved wearing rock chick clothes

#9 Star Movies - Unstoppable - an exciting train action movie with Chris Pine and Denzel Washington - grabe, heartstopping talaga because of all the trains!

#10 AXN - Amazing Race 21 - The race continues and the Monster Truckers are eliminated...nagtrain kasi instead of riding the taxi, mga shonga talaga!

A Horror Movie My Top Favorite TV Show This Week

Since it's the November 1 weekend where Filipinos visit their beloved dead relatives, it's not unusual that my favorite TV show this week is a movie - a horror movie - and this one is special since it's also the first movie of one of my favorite actors - Tom Hanks!

Here are my favorite TV shows for the week ending November 2, 2012 -

#1 TCM - He Knows You're Alone

#2 Lifestyle Network - The Conversations with Amandade Cadenet

I really enjoyed this chatfest even if all the guests were women - Alicia Keys, Eva Longoria, Kelly Preston - and they talked about woman stuff.  It was like they were just guests in your living room.  Bravo!

#3 Nat Geo - Science of Saints

This documentary featured the lives of Saints Chrysanthus and Daria and the forensics involving proving that their bones were not fakes.

#4 Nat Geo - The Truth Behind Zombies 

 This interesting documentary tries to prove that zombies can actually become a reality - so there was talk about a viral pandemic, hypnotherapy and Haitian vodoo!

#5 Nat Geo - Taboo: Mating 

This documentary talked about women who love men who are in jail!  Very interesting stories!

#6 AXN - Amazing Race S21

It's another leg for the racers and they are still in Dhaka, Bangladesh!  It's a place I want to visit even if it's really poor and crowded!

#7 Jack TV - Big Bang Theory  

This episode was really funny since everyone in Sheldon's group of friends did not quite like his new 'girlfriend'

#8 HBO - 30 Minutes or Less

This movie of Jesse Eisenberg and Aziz Ansari is really funny.  Loved it!

#9 Bio - Celebrity Ghost Stories

A new batch of ghost stories although this one was not very scary.

#10 Nat Geo - Hooked - Giant Devil Catfish

It was funny that I ended up watching a documentary about fish - and fish in India!  You should see the catfishes - they're uber huge!
