If so, what are your favorite shows to watch while you scrap?? I like ones that I can listen to without having to watch the screen every second. BTW we have a DVR so I can record my favorite shows and watch them whenever I want to...I love it!!

My faves:
Oprah
Good Things Utah (a local show, obviously)
DIY scrapbooking (sometimes you have to watch closely to get everything)
American Idol
Apprentice

Oprah is a good one! Except when she's doing the Oprah's favorite things show, then there's so much you HAVE to see!

Movies are good to watch, re-runs from my fav shows... Sometimes I watch Law and Order... I know you kind of need to pay attention, but half the time I don't care. We also have TiVo and it makes life so much easier to watch stuff over... so if I miss something and I notice it, I just rewind!

I want Tivo...............................

That whine aside, I don't scrap to TV - I can't see the TV from where my desk is. Which is probably just as well - with my luck, I'd emboss myself....

I wish I had a TV in my scrap room...I don't even have a radio in there right now! It gets very quiet in there, so sometimes I haul everything downstairs to the family room and scrapbook in front of the TV. Typically I'll put a movie in, but sometimes I'll watch a lot of The Learning Channel (TLC).

I have to watch TV for the background noise. I sometimes don't even know what's going on in the show. We don't have cable in our new house - hopefully we will soon. When we do, it will always be on HGTV! I love that channel!

Occasionally I listen to Friends, but I don't have a TV in my scraproom, so I usually listen to music.

We don't have our tv hooked up LOL but I do scrap to movies though. Has to be ones I've seen before or ones I don't care about much. DH likes bloody war movies so a lot of times I scrap while he's getting his fill of violence.

I can't scrap to TV, it's too distracting for me. Sometimes I'll put a movie in but I end up not usually knowing what's going on in the movie.

Whatever DH is watching! I don't like watching TV, so when DH is watching, it's a good opportunity to sit in there with him and scrap

My scrap area is in the computer room - so no tv. I watch DVD's on my computer or listen to cd's. I use netflix so it is nice to watch the movies I get and work at the same time. I find that I normally fall asleep if I watch a movie and just sit on the couch. I never see the endings. This way if I am working I can't fall asleep and I actually see a whole movie!!

I usually have the tv on in my scraproom unless I am in the mood for music. I like to have background noise and in the evenings I usually have on my fav show, TLC, HGTV or Food Network!

We don't have cable and a movie would distract me too much. I usually listen to the radio or pop in a CD.

I usually pop in a DVD of a movie I have seen hundreds of times. It basically serves as background noise. If it's something new, I find I stop scrapping and start watching the television.

I like to watch my fv shows while doing anything - folding laundry, scrapping, dusting etc. I usually scrap late at night so I usually watch old movies. My mom has a huge collection of movies and I borrow from her. Right now I am watching all the old harrison ford movies I have never watched. Otherwise friends and SATC complete seasons. I have seen each episode at least twice so if I miss a little here and there, its no big deal. I also get chick flicks and teeny bopper movies from the library that dh wont watch with me - The last two I watched were Raise your Voice and Raising Helen.

I have the TV on for background, not by program but by station:

Weather, Fox News, HGTV are on the most.

I listen to music while I scrap... something loud and upbeat always gets me in the creative mood... Lately it has been Shania Twain, and cross-canadian-ragweed...

I usually have the tv on while I scrap in the 1 big "living room" of my apartment. I like Law and Order, because I can listen to it without watching the screen and still understand whats going on.

I usually watch tv or a dvd once the family has gone to bed.
