- "This is SportsCenter!" resounds through your home way too often. This favorite show of your boyfriend's plays the highlights of sporting events from around the United States (and sometimes the world) everyday... on a loop... for all of eternity. You can't help but wonder that if your boyfriend maybe ventured outside and actually played a sport, he'd still fit into those jeans you got him last Christmas.
- This program follows a Louisiana bayou family living the American dream, who stay true to their family values and lifestyle while maintaining a thriving business. Or rather, it's a show about a bearded redneck family who "quacks' for a living. Either way, your boyfriend loves it. Maybe it's time you flew the coop.
