Favorite T.V. shows at the moment

For part of my media blog I have to list my favorite T.V. shows.  I like to watch T.V. and movies on my bed, because I like to create a fake cinema.  I'd put a blanket over my head and the computer to watch any of the following shows.  Surprisingly, I've narrowed it down to six.
1) Grey's Anatomy 
2) Project Runway
3) The 100
4) Avatar the Last Airbender
5) Match made in heaven
6) Friends
I watch quite a few more, but these seem to be the ones that I watch to truly feel something.  The list has quite a variety of genres and I think that's what I like about all of them collectively.  Grey's Anatomy makes me feel more connected to my emotions, by crying when all the characters die.  Project runway inspired me to sew and help me access a creative outlet.  The 100 is a sci-fi and drama, I like it because it experiments with a likely Utopia.  Avatar the last Airbender or is a sci-fi and comedy, and I like it because it's in a cartoon. And overall Avatar the last Airbender has just a really great plot. Match made in heaven is just so funny, it's a drama that's a way to overdone and dramatic version of the bachelor.   And lastly, Friends cheers me up no matter what mood I'm in.  All the TV shows are so different, but have all connected with me personally. These TV shows help me access a variety of my emotions.

My relationship with media

For my first post on this blog, I want to describe my relationship with media.  Media in my life in everywhere.  From what I've learned I am exposed to mass communication wherever I go.  Basically put: I can't escape it.  But with that being said its not like I attempt to escape all forms of media.  I am constantly on twitter and other social medias, I very much enjoy watching movies and T.V. shows and I listen to music instead of silence.  It's addicting and unnecessary, and the amount of media experience in a day.  This blog is a school assignment, but I hope I get to learn and control how much media I receive.
