What are your current "first run" guilty pleasures?

What currently running series is your guilty pleasure? For me, it's easy, cause it's the ones I put on the bedroom TiVo because no one else in the family would want to watch it with me.

I won't count Charlie Rose, since I'm not embarrassed by liking it, it just doesn't have any appeal to the rest of my family. I also don't want to count wrestling shows, cause "I just watch them to have something else to do with my stepson". I also wouldn't count the currently hiatused Karen Sisco, as the writing was great, and I enjoyed the scenes with her dad as much as those with Carla Gugino .

For fun and mild t&a I still have loved every episode of Las Vegas.

I also am occasionally ashamed to admit I like watching Judging Amy. I find it calms me, and find her (Amy, not Cagney) stunningly hot!

What are yours?

I don't feel guilty at all watching Las Vegas. Many say The O.C. is a guilty pleasure as well - not me.

I'd say Justice League, Tru Calling and She Spies.

I don't feel one ounce of guilt watching Las Vegas or The O.C. either.

I do feel somewhat guilty for sometimes watching certain sitcoms on the WB, like: What I Like About You; Run of the House, etc...

I felt guilty when I first watched One Tree Hill, but I don't anymore...

Some are guiltier than others, but: Average Joe Hawaii, American Idol (soon), The Simple Life, Celebrity Mole Yucatan (soon), Fear Factor.

I also like What I Like Abot You, but I usually forget to watch it unless CSI is a repeat.
