    Default How many television shows can you understand without the video?

    I bought an inexpensive radio yesterday, which has a television band with six broadcast channels, including the major networks. Which shows are there that you can just listen to without needing the video?

    So far, I've found I can listen to news, a basketball game, one of the morning news/entertainment shows, the "Jeopardy" game show, and I was actually able to follow the plot of "Bones" last night, although I only listened to the last ten minutes.

    I was not able to only listen to the game show, "Wheel of Fortune" or to "Lost," and so went back to regular televison immediately after a few minutes of "Lost."

    So how many shows can you name where you only need the sound to understand them, and not the video?

    Anything on TV Land. Before I put the old Tivo in my sewing room it was the only thing decent on in the middle of the night. I could sew and sew and never look at the TV. Now I'm constantly looking up 'cause I want to see what's going on with whatever show I happened to Tivo! Argh, what a delicious distraction, Tivo!

    Full House, Roseanne, The Golden Girls... I've seen every episode of each of those about a two dozen times. Any of the court shows work pretty well, too. Usually there isn't much to see aside from the occasional picture of demonstration. Divorce Court is the best.
