TV takes advantage of your time off

Long weekends are good for several things, like catching up on AfterEllen.com content you might have missed, or perhaps taking advantage of a last day at the lake before it starts getting too cold. Or, you can be completely lazy because you have the right to, and watch consecutive episodes of Project Runway on Bravo.

Television marathons are a genius invention that allows you to catch up on any shows you might have missed. Even if you are lucky enough to have TiVo, it's still way more fun to veg out and let the cable box do all the work while you have one channel on all day. And hey, maybe you've seen every episode of Army Wives already, but you've never once checked out CSI: Miami. What better way to see if you'd be into the show than to watch from the beginning? Labor Day was made for this type of awesomeness.

Here's what you can find on television all day today:

CSI: Miami (A&E)
Project Runway (Bravo)
That 70’s Show (FX)
Murder She Wrote (Hallmark Channel)

Army Wives (Lifetime)
America’s Next Top Model (MTV)
Beverly Hills 90210 (SOAP)
CSI (Spike)
The Closer (TNT)

Scrubs (TV Land)
High School Confidential (WE)



What will you be watching?

Okay

Last day at the lake are over weeks ago. This summer has been so cold and totally weird. And about catching up on afterellen things, no, more like checking if there is anything new :-P

project runway

I switched on Bravo because it said that Project Runway was on, but that lame show about those d-bag brothers who are also realestate brokers was on. I feel so betrayed.

Murder She Wrote

Although I could easily enjoy about 8 out of the 11 shows listed, I am definitely a diehard Murder She Wrote fan!  I absolutely love JESSICA FLETCHER!

CABOT COVE HERE WE COME!!

It would have to be Jessica for me too! I looovvveee the older ones when she still lived in Cabot Cove. Fab tv!

I have to say though, if she ever came knocking on my door I would be on the road out of town as quick as you could say Boo! for fear of being murdered or accused of it!! MURDER, SHE WROTE RULES!!

CSI

I tuned in to the CSI marathon on Spike TV as soon as I got home from work (yes, I had to work on a holiday). There's a two hour interruption due to a dick flick -- err, i mean guy's movie -- so I'm waiting for 9pm to come around to continue watching.

The Closer

I watched a couple of The Closer episodes after my partner and I returned home from a picnic in the Rocky Mountains. Aspen trees, mountain bluebirds and Kyra Sedgewick are my idea of a really great day.
