late night tv

I have times when I just can't sleep, so I start watching TV. But late night TV is somewhat strange.
I've seen a couple of dog shows (one is on right now!), and I've seen infomercials. Magic Bullet food procesor anyone? Perhaps some oxiclean? or brilliant faux gold jewelry? And of course one can always start some kind of real estate buisness. . .
So what do you other insomniacs watch?

We'll we only have 1 TV in the bedroom right now, so I get up and come to the computer and post. Sometimes, I write or draw or work on my art or write a song. It just depends on my mood. I usually fix myself some cafe vienna coffee, or some hot chocolate, and hope I get sleepy enough to go back to bed

I usually sleep for about 4 hrs when I have insomnia then get up and watch Fox news all night. It's all repeats from the day before. Then Fox and Friends comes on and every hour they talk about the same thing over again. I also like to watch jewelry tv.

DO NOT BUY THE MAGIC BULLET....5 out of 10 I sell come back as returns.Remember ,those "DEMO" people have prep people in the back getting things all set up perfectly,and they only tape the perfect results...if you have to BUY something...buy OXYCLEAN..it works.

Thanks for the tip dancing. The magic bullet looked pretty good to me too.
There are always medical drug testing advertising. "Is your child possibly suffering from ADHD? Come into future search for a free trial and small compensation." They always try to get you when you are sleepy and bored. I bought a bunch of 60's legend records for $150 that way and found out later that you could get it just as easily for $80 on Amazon.

I'd suggest getting TIVO. Then you can record shows to watch when your up late. It's my favorite toy ever and I just couldn't live without as I'm a late night tv watcher too.

    I have a question.  When I was transferred from one hospital (civilian) to the military mental hospital, I was transported like this.  The wife took the pix for evidence of what was going on as we were having a hard time getting info out of the docs and the nurses kept lying to us about my condition and care.  Come to find out that once they think you are suicidal they are under zero...

    Moving monday when he is at work. Monday is the big day I signed the lease today and paid $1140 plus the $900  deposit I paid last Saturday. I'm blowing threw my emergency exit fund. My one bedroom apartment is small. It pisses me off that I'm leaving some of my belongings at this mans house. I'm praying so hard he doesn't come home early from work. Please pray for me. So far I ordered a daybed....
