American Idol
The Bachelor
The Bachelorette
I agree with all these except Chelsea Handler. She's funny sometimes.

LADY GAGA. I just don't get it. Her songs sound like Ace of Base/Madonna and I don't get what is so "cool" or "edgy" about her. I am the only person on the planet who doesn't like her. lol.
But not these. I am a closest top 40 fan in the car. There's something about vapid, catchy lyrics that have become my guilty pleasure.

Nooooooooooooooooo! I'm obsessed with Mumford recently. British folk rock = basically my dream genre, and it's super chill, which is the phase I'm definitely in with my 'real' music tastes (i.e. not top 40 stuff).

Forrest Gump?!?! This is my favorite movie, by far. It has just a little bit of everything, which is why I love it so.

The last movie is now coming out now that I'm done with my fourth year of college. I.grew.up.with.Harry.Potter. And I will never, ever speak ill of him or allow others to.

Maybe I have a different definition of "Overrated" than some?
No, I had the same thought when Efron and some others like Jennifer Aniston were brought up.

Yeah, I know lots of people love it. But I don't -- I probably would have walked out of the theater if we hadn't been there with friends. I've given it a try once of twice since then, but I just can't watch it. It's just way too syrupy and lacking in subtlety for my taste.

OMG. I am about to agree with you. I love Florence and the Machine. I listen to her album at work all the time. She has a quirky voice and interesting songs. She's not quite top 40 which is what I guess I like about her.

Ex-Mr 33 would be so happy to see all the Forrest Gump hate. He detests that movie.

The British Office is WAAAAAAY better than the American one. David Brent is SUPPOSED to make you squirm. Plus Tim & Dawn are a lot cuter than Jim & Pam.

Everyone dissing FOTM & Chelsea Handler better sleep with one eye open tonight.

"Allow others to"? You don't have to speak ill of him if you don't want to, but I just did, and I still think Harry Potter is dumb.
