If you’re like me, even though the TV regular season is over, you’ll still tune in to find something you haven’t seen before or return to old favorites. However, I have compiled a list of warning signs of when you need to go outside and enjoy the muggy weather and turn off the TV.

*You say the following to yourself: “Hey this show on E! might be good.”

*You start crying when watching Kelly breaks up with Zak outside the Halloween dance.

*While flipping through the channels you discover LOGO and wonder “What’s the deal with this station?”

*As you watch reruns, you don’t find it strange to watch Christmas episodes in July.

*You get so engrossed in”The Lot” that you start finding Carrie Fisher attractive again.

*During the Macy’s 4th of July Spectacular you scream at the screen when they don’t show enough crowd shots during the fireworks, because you truly care about the facial reaction of a 48 year old plumber from Staten Island.

*Flipping through TV guide you think “I need to watch this. I’ve found that Richard Greico movies are pure cinematic treasures.”

*While watching an episode of X-Play you start believing that Adam Sessler isn’t an arrogant prick spewing his jaded views on video games and always asking the question “Why couldn’t Gauntlet 2 be better than the original?” No, you now view him as a video game prophet, who has worth while opinions.

*You begin to appreciate the plots of late night soft-core porn and discuss them with co-workers. “I’m telling you Bill, I didn’t think that the big breasted Asian Masseuse would turn out to be the whore of the flick.”

*After watching Dawson’s Creek on TBS, you call up a friend to complain that no real teenagers talk like that.

*Al Roker becomes funny to you.

*You don’t turn off Comedy Central Presents when you discover it’s a female comic.

*Finally, you wonder what ever happened to that dude on ESPN who used to do weight loss exercises in front of military aircraft.
