Default Totally off topic Q

Hey all,
I NEED to know what tv show your parents or you (if your over 20) watch between 5-6pm just before the news?

If you dont watch normal free to air tv, then please let me know what tv show you remember most from 5-6pm or freinds you know watch etc...

The older the person, the better.

Please reply and help me out with this.

Thank you
Paul

My parents watch tv most of the day... I can't stand it. I know my mum watches that godawful show The Bold and the Beautiful (I think it's on ch 10 at 4.30pm?). Also they watch Deal or No Deal or The Price is Right. They are oldies, as in 67 and 69 respectively.

I refuse to watch morning/daytime tv, if it goes on at all it's for the Simpsons and SBS world news, that's it really.

Mum would've just come back from work; I guess she watches the Ch10 news, or mostly the weather.

My grandparents are in their early 90's - they watch TV every evening between 5-6pm, but I guarantee you they remember nothing!

Whatever may be in my DVD player in my car. I'm pretty sure you can't transmit ads via wireless technology yet...
