Watching TV when your sick!

Have you ever noticed that your television viewing pleasure alters when you are sick. Some people have to stay home from work when their sick, while others who work from home take a couch day. Regardless of how you end up on that couch you turn on television shows you wouldn't normally watch. Well, I do.

On a regular day at home or in my office I watch Court TV, CNN, crime shows and the occasional sci fi marathon. When I'm sick my television viewing alters drastically. I find myself watching Jerry Springer, Maury, Montel Williams, and really old comedy series like Becker, Who's the Boss, or Matlock. What does this mean?

What do you watch when you are taking a couch day?

It could mean your taste is impacted by your illness as well!

Or it could mean you want to watch things that don't require a lot of mental input; you can zone out watching them.

Both might be true. Also, I think it's easy to nod on and off during the shows. LOL
