Nov. 26th, 2002 11:03 amThis is why I've turned off the Recommendations Auto-record feature on the TiVo. Of course, my TiVo likely thinks that I'm a large family consisting of:
Yes, I know I watch too much TV. Shut up
My Amazon and Netflix recommendations are pretty screwed up, too. My Amazon Gold Box keeps offering me knives, baby mobiles and monitors, and Star Trek DVDs...go figure.
I don't imagine that Netflix knows what to do with me, either--foreign films, science fiction, dramas, comedies, classics--I pretty much like them all. And then I go and rate Dude, Where's My Car? four stars, and blow it all to hell...
- A young child who watches cartoons (Samurai Jack, Invader Zim, Justice League)
- A teenaged boy who watches sci-fi action dramas and rude comedy (Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Smallville, Stargate, Enterprise, South Park)
- A teenage girl who watches teen angst dramas (Buffy, Gilmore Girls Yes, I watch Gilmore Girls. Lauren Graham is a total M.I.L.F. The dialogue is very well-written. Stop laughing. Fuck you...)
- A mother who likes cooking shows and adult-oriented comedies (Good Eats, Naked Chef, Sex and the City, Mind of the Married Man)
- A father who likes real-life dramas and maybe some nostalgic comedies (The Sopranos, 24, John Doe, That 70s Show)
- A random unleashed sex fiend/pervert (Real Sex)
