GuiltyPleasures
#58281
The Live Action Resident Evil Films. Well except for Apocalypse
#58283
I have a secret thing for {{shoujo}}:
#58284
''FruitsBasket'': Melodrama up the wazoo, yet I was still hanging on tenterhooks over who Tohru would pick.
#58287
However, I hold my head up high and pronounce that ''KimiNiTodoke'' is the best shoujo ever.
#58290
And to see Jack "CrazyAwesome" Rakan in action.
#58291
''Ramen Fighter Miki'': It's bereft of any higher influences, yet it somehow wraps right round from 'idiotic' back to the most elementary Looney Tunes-style slapstick comedy.
#58292
''{{Sekirei}}'': FetishFuel. I... I have no other excuse.
#58293
''BlackLagoon'': I burn with shame every time I hear the theme song, yet I dance along to it any and every time I hear it.
#58294
''{{Change 123}}'': Okay, I'll admit I initially came for and stayed for the boobs, but the main story's winning me over with its adherence to realism. Plus, introducing a believable, developing romantic plot between main characters is my catnip.
#58295
{{Anime}} and {{Manga}} in general, mostly because I can't admit to anyone in my age group that I ''like'' the simplistic morals, the impossible stunts and the fanservice that pervades the medium, and the LongRunner nature of most of the {{Shonen}} series. I noticed this when I showed off my collection to someone and she wasn't that impressed by the quality.
#58296
''GoodWillHunting'': Some call it {{Glurge}}, but
Shaun's advice to Will is the finest, most inspirational and humbling dialogue I've ever heard. Same goes for the dialogue in ''DeadPoetsSociety'' - ''Carpe Diem''!
#58297
Lately, fanfic. I read, nay, devoured ''FanFic/ThousandShinji'' just so I could see the Angels get
violently kerbstomped. I read its sequel ''FanFic/TheOpenDoor'' for the big, big guns being used in a multi-crossover UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny... and I liked it.
#58298
I will say that ''FanFic/{{Team 8}}'' and ''FanFic/HarryPotterAndTheMethodsOfRationality'' are worthy of all the praise they can get.
#58299
I don't have a defined musical taste, so this isn't that surprising, but - Hal Cali. Apparently, my brain doesn't like cheesy, sparkly J-pop unless it's served up with rap sauce and seasoned with
a funny vid. To quote fandomsecrets, "WTH self?"

When I confessed to my best friend that I secretly listen to Paula Abdul, he said, "Oh, honey" in the same tone he would have used if my cat had died. Who cares? I am
Forever Her Girl.
#58302
Tropers/AgentAlpha
#58303
Musicals. Granted, I have a very ecletic tastes when it comes to music (the only genres I don't listen to are country western and hip-hop), but I do enjoy certain musicals, particularly anything with lyrics by DannyElfman or StephenSondheim... or has anything sung by NeilPatrickHarris.
#58304
''StarWars'' fanfiction. Actually, that ''used'' to be a guilty pleasure. I haven't read (or written) any in years.
#58305
Yoga. It helps that I'm flexible enough from taking eight years of gymnastics as a kid.
#58306
Tropers/{{Agent0042}}
#58307
None. I refuse to feel guilty for any of my pleasures when it comes to media. And if anyone is telling you that you should for any of yours, you need to consider where they're coming from and what is motivating them to say such.
#58309
the Jeremy Kyle Show and Ricki Lake Show - strangely addictive, and excellent viewing when you're ill :P
#58310
Card Captor Sakura
#58311
Anything by Britney Spears :)
#58313
Reading, writing, or otherwise involving myself in fan fiction.
#58314
The HouseOfNight series. Yes, OurVampiresAreDifferent has already been done to death. Yes, Zoey Redbird is a shameless MarySue. Yes, the level of TriangRelations and UnwantedHarem has become ridiculous. So why can't I stop reading?
#58316
And last but not least, the guiltiest of all guilty pleasures, ''Total Wipeout''. *hangs head in shame*
#58317
Tropers/AndThenIWasAZombie
#58318
Oh, for the love of all that is holy, {{Kampfer}}. The plot is thin, the twists are obvious, and the characters are two-dimensional as all hell, but if you get in the way of me watching the next ep ''I will end you.''
#58319
Tropers/AndThusDiscord
#58320
Any music from 1900 to 1950, and by extension, music that tries to emulate that style. Occasionally racist, usually cheesy, brain-shrivellingly patriotic in some cases, but ''oh, so catchy.'' I blame
Bioshock and
Fallout.
#58322
TheLastAirbender- There. I said. I liked the most universally revilled movie of 2010. I mean, when you compare it to adaptations like DragonballEvolution and StreetFighterTheLegendOfChunLi, M. Night Shamaylan at least knew what he was adapting.
#58324
The Transformers movies.
#58325
DragonBallTheMagicBegins.
#58327
Sexy {{Cosplay}}- I guess it gives me an excuse to fantasize over fictional characters. Though, the one I often desire the most is Tifa Lockheart in her original game costume.
#58328
DisneyChannel sitcoms.
#58331
{{Glee}} big time. It's {{anvilicious}}, filled with horrible continuity, and its songs are auto-tuned to hell and back, but damn if I don't love it.
#58332
A huge guilty pleasure is StarTrekTheOriginalSeries. Let's just say that, to other people, it did not age well.
#58333
I really, really like the song 'Kyrie' by Mr. Mister. I really do. Really.
#58335
this male troper has watched rosario+ vampire, likes the story called what i did for love,

Anonymous troper who won't admit her identity:

I have hoodies from Hollister and Abercrombie. Oh, God, why. They were so soft. I couldn't resist. Soft things are a huge, huge weakness of mine.

Oh god, the
Eurovision Song Contest, but honestly, some of the songs are actually really good...about the 1%, but stil...
#58341
Countdown shows, you know, like "top 100 most whatever"

Music: I have a prejudice against bands (not against rock and metal per se, just bands), and I'm inexplicably proud of not following any...damn you, Nightwish, why did you have to make Ghost Love Score so enjoyable?! Most of my pleasures that most people would consider guilty I'll readily concede.
#58348
Tropers/{{Arcadiarika}}
#58349
In roughly alphabetical order:
#58350
{{The Angry Video Game Nerd}}. Second only to
Linkara for personal favorite Internet reviewer. While I am not a fan of {{Refuge In Vulgarity}}, somehow he makes it work enough for me to enjoy some of it (that isn't swearing).
#58351
Boy bands of the '90s. Backstreet Boys, N* SYNC, you name it. Heck, some pop music from the '90s in general. Yes, that includes the Spice Girls. Cheesy, but it's so good. I kinda miss that.
#58352
And while I'm on a roll with music, {{Nightwish}} as well. Whether it's Tarja or Anette, the band always comes through with brilliant, epic music. (Yep, I happen to like both lead singers. You can't make me choose, darn it!)
#58353
''{{Legends Of The Hidden Temple}}.'' Basically, your basic {{Nickelodeon}} game show
meets history. And who doesn't groan at the people who utterly fail at putting together the Shrine of the Silver Monkey? Or make other such slip-ups?
#58354
''{{Nickelodeon Guts}}''. Whether it's the original or ''Global GUTS,'' it's fun to watch contestants and make fun of some
'winners.' Also, the, er, friendship of Mike and Mo.
#58355
The ''{{Pokemon}}'' video games. I especially like the main series games, ''{{Pokemon Mystery Dungeon}},'' and ''{{Pokemon Ranger}}''. The other games,
the anime, and the manga? Not so much. (Especially, for some reason, the main Dex Holders in the manga come across as
Mary Sues and
Marty Stus to poor old moi...)
#58356
''{{Power Rangers}}''. I happen to like some of the series (* cough*''
Lightspeed Rescue''* cough* ). And sue me, I happen to like, say, ''{{Power Rangers Mystic Force}}'', but only for the [=~So Bad It's Good~=] factor. Same goes with, say, ''{{Mighty Morphin Power Rangers}}.''
#58357
''The Smoking Gun Presents: The World's Dumbest...''. While some people may not like the program, I find it to be enjoyable. It's stupid people doing stupid things. And is it me, or are there some
Crowning Moments of Awesome featured on the show that are already listed in that entry (the karate instructor defeating a pimp, for example)?
#58358
Weight gain fanfics. I have written several, and how much the body can gain tremendous amounts of weight in fiction is rather interesting. Even though such massive amounts will never work in real life for humans, obviously.
#58359
Tropers/{{Arcana07}}
#58360
''{{Maury}}'', particularly the "paternity test" shows. It's fun trying to predict who's going to be proven correct that [x] is the father of [y] and who will be coming back onto the show to test another guy, plus there's a "{{Refuge in Audacity}}" thrill in seeing a woman who's already tested something like 7 or 8 guys coming back to test more.
#58361
Italo disco. Yes, I know they're prefabricated groups orchestrated and controlled by largely Italian producers and if the singers aren't from America or Great Britain the singing sounds rather weird and stilted, but Kano's "
I'm Ready" was one of the first techno singles ever,
Change sounded so much like something out of the Chic Organisation, and Valerie Dore had such a great voice.
#58362
''{{Americas Funniest Home Videos}}''. I've stuck with this program from the Saget years to when John Fugelsang and Daisy Fuentes co-hosted to the present era with Tom Bergeron and I still can't get enough. Even though they have the audience playing more stupid games now and the "winners" selections are largely on the dubious side, it's still fun watching those home videos, and almost aS fun picking out which videos were set-ups and which ones looked real.
#58363
{{Barry Manilow}}'s "
Copacabana". I know it's supposed to be the cheesiest song ever, but I can't help but get into the song whenever I hear it on the radio and have admittedly looked up the song on YT in the past to see if I can replay it if the urge to do so strikes me. A similar effect comes over me with the similarly cheesy original theme to the 1979 NBC dud "
Supertrain", which I just cannot get enough of.
#58364
''{{Finding Nemo}}''. I hate animation as a rule and have always found them (with the exception of the animated shorts "{{Sesame Street}}" used to air) far too juvenile for my liking. I've always felt cartoons were for little children and I've never been one of those, not internally anyway. So why do I find myself drawn to ''Finding Nemo'' any time a doctor's office plays the DVD?
#58365
''
The Lawrence Welk Show''. I am theoretically light years younger than this show's target demographic, which is supposed to run more toward my mother's and late grandmother's age groups, but still, every Saturday night when PBS re-airs one of those episodes, I'm right there in front of the TV with my dinner, eating and watching this show. (Fun fact: Did you know the guy who provided Michael Jackson's singing voice when he made a guest appearance on "The Simpsons" is the baby brother of a popular sisterly singing group that frequently made appearances on "The Lawrence Welk Show"?)

DisneyChannel sitcoms. Only select ones, though.
#58369
{{iCarly}}. Both for fanservice from Carly and the Creddie ship.

''{{Arthur}}''. I've loved it ever since I was tiny and still find it thoroughly enjoyable.
#58376
''America's Most Smartest Model'' - believe me, I normally find those shows somewhat painful to watch, but this one I seriously found hilarious. Shame they never came out with the second season. Or perhaps they did, but I'm not entirely sure.
#58377
''ThePowerpuffGirls''. Actually, I have no real shame in watching it and can do so on lazy weekends happily alongside fellow fans who are some of the biggest
Bad Asses I know... yet somehow I feel kind of awkward asking around stores if they're carrying [=DVDs=].
#58378
Similarly, I feel no shame in being a fan of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', but I realize that my favorite/comfort episode of choice is "Forces of Nature". Screw the {{Anvilicious}} nature of it, Beast Boy the {{hypocrite}}, and all of that. Thunder and Lightning make this troper think respectively of one of her siblings and herself.
#58379
''ChibiRobo'' is a friggin' adorable, inventive, and overall fun game, but I doubt if I mentioned it in public anyone who recognized the name without having played it wouldn't lose ability to take me seriously.

#58381
I don't really feel shame for most things I like, even if they are subpar in quality or below my maturity age (19 years) except today (April 10, 2011) I bought a Frankie Stein MonsterHigh doll. This is only because they didn't have a Draculaura doll. She is now standing atop my computer tower.
#58383
All reality shows, particularly TheXFactor, StrictlyComeDancing and BritainsGotTalent. Normally this troper enjoys complex cult TV shows like LOST, and even his non-geeky peers often sneer at reality shows for being lowbrow and trashy, but this troper can't get enough of them...
#58384
RatchetAndClank, while not anything to be ashamed of within gamer communities, is a guilty pleasure to this troper when he's talking to his peers and friends in RealLife, who are quick to criticise the games as childish and ask patronising questions about when I'm going to buy "proper" games.
#58385
LEGO is this troper's favourite hobby - he enjoys building it, collecting it, and discussing it with other fans, but to this day he's only ever been able to tell a tiny handful of people in RealLife. Often their reactions have been unfavourable, with most unable to understand why an 18-year-old would have anything to do with a kids toy, and dismissing the legions of adult fans of LEGO as worthless loners who refuse to grow up and move on, and thus will never do anything good or worthwhile in the world. I'm proud of my interests, but I tend to keep to myself...
#58387
CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs: Judging of the trailer, I thought it was an average run-of-the-mill kiddy flick, and only came because her mother offered and Mr. T's in it. Other than a few edits on the trope page here, I never mentioned it due to the fact I never knew the film's reputation. It's a rather good film despite the ubber amounts of fridge logic, weird animation style, and two scenes of obvious snark bait. The soundtrack's pretty good too.
#58388
SailorMoon: I only saw the sub version, but that didn't stop the fridge logic. Its characters, the
Tear Jerkers and music(epically the outer's theme and image songs) was pretty much the reason I watched all 199 episodes (I didn't count 89.)
#58389
Several Direct to dvd/vhs/unoffical Disney Sequels: Only a few (Cinderella 3, 101 Datamations 2, Aladdin and the king of theives[sp?], Peter Pan 2, and The lion king 1 1/2). explains itself
#58390
Film Brain.- I liked checking out some of his videos. Not as bad as everyone says.
#58391
The three earlier {{Disney Princess}}es that isn't Alice- Alice, and most of the later ones (sans Pocahontas, who needs some more depth) I enjoyed quite fondly because they're more developed. The earlier ones aren't as developed, but both the girls and their respective films are decent in their own right.
#58392
The dolls in the toyline.- I'm only in the fandom purely due to the first films. They were reduced to sterotypical blandness sans the sequels I listed that I liked, the tv series, KingdomHearts, and Kilala princess. But, I have a soft spot for dolls.
#58393
''Kilala Princess'': Only read the first two volumes so far. Despite the poorly drawen covers, some scenes with {{Narm}} (ed.
when one of the trench coat wearing villains whispered to the tittle heroine's apparently {{Brainwashed}} BFF about following their mission, I had AllStarBatmanAndRobin flashbacks), the fact that the {{Disney Princess}}es
weren't magical girls too, the obvious MerchandiseDriven nature of the book, and its Gerenic MagicalGirl feel to it, it won me over with its the well drawn art inside the book, Erica's one sided LesYay with the heroine, the interesting
Bechdel-test-passing GenreSavvy heroine, not sugar coating some scenes, and the KingdomHearts
meets {{Sailor Moon}}-esque plot to it. Planned on making a trope page once I actually read all the volumes.
#58394
The song love bug- Unliked the rest of the internet, I could care less about those silly popstars on the disney channel. As long as it doesn't effect the quality of their animated pieces, it's not personal. But, I would admit the jonas brothers did a decent job with that song.
#58395
Skillet- Chirstan. Rock. Band. 'Nuff said.
#58396
The seasons of JohnnyTest not done by the WB- Only due to the piss poor theme song and the flash animation style not being as high quality as the first. And the fact people backlashed on it due to simlilar elements of
another series
#58397
KidVsKat, JimmyTwoShoes, and TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack- All of these shows I only see a handfull of episodes for, and stated before I seen them that
they won't catch on. While I'm aware of that Flapjack is a
mileage may vary show, I'm not too sure about the other two (though the page on Jimmy Two Shoes hinted out that it was a success)
#58398
{{Anastasia}}- Yes, I know it's not accurate to history. Yes, it's an expensive Disney knock off. Yes, some things confused the hell out of me. But, it's still an enjoyable animated film
#58399
The rough trailer of {{Tangled}}- The scene when Rapunzel got down was pretty
funny.
#58400
PhineasAndFerb- Sort of with the show, but mostly with Suzy(because she's the closest thing to a recurring villain on the show that's actually evil. The
insect Implications are
a bit much though) , and supporting of Ferb/Gretchen. (mainly because how its usually portrayed is UrExample on how NOT to write a CrackPairing, and some of the fans are fucking coco-for-coco puffs.)
#58401
The RepoTheGeneticOpera soundtrack- The closest thing I ever got of actually seeing the movie is
this review of it. However, the songs are so addicting, that I can't help but to love it.
#58403
I'll admit to liking the ''{{Dungeons And Dragons}}''
movie. It wouldn't be one fifth as good without Jeremy Irons LargeHam acting.
#58404
I enjoyed it ''without irony''. In my defence I was about eleven at the time.
#58405
Tropers/{{botboy101}}
#58406
I have to confess that I have a soft spot for soap operas. Not modern ones, but the old radio ones from the '30's, '40's and '50's. They're cheesy and melodramatic (and designed to be that way), and I know I'm being manipulated, but I still get completely wrapped up in them.
#58407
Max and Ruby - It's sweet, cute and and actually pretty funny, and is the perfect antidote for watching too many depressing movies or the news.
#58408
Tropers/{{Brokenshell}}
#58409
This Troper feels no guilt about anything he likes.....Except MonsterHigh. I have a thing about CuteMonsterGirl s, especially those based on existing movie monsters, so having a doll series have THAT as its gimmick, it makes me want to start doll collecting so I can have an excuse.

The ''BrotherBear'' movies.

To a lesser extent, the SoBadItsGood ''FamilyGuy'' season 7.

and too many others to name off the top of my head.
#58425
''TheJerseyShore''. It's so outrageously stupid, it's amazing. I enjoy nothing more than sitting down with my friends and just riffing on it for hours on end. But not as much as...
#58426
LargeHam Televangelists. My friends and I can get hours of entertainment watching them.
#58427
''MegaManX:CommandMission''. Sure, it makes hardcore fans of the series cringe, but... it's a solid RPG in it's own right.
#58428
Bonus Characters in ''Fire Emblem''. Sure, they generally stink compared to your normal units, but I'm a sucker for being able to play as the villains.
#58429
''MahouSenseiNegima''. As some of my fellow tropers have already expressed, it's become less and less guilty since the Kyoto Arc...
#58430
''TheGreatGatsby''. You'd think there wouldn't be anything to be ashamed of for loving such a renowned piece of literature. However, judging by the amount of rolled eyes and sarcastic remarks I get when I list my all-time favorite book as The Great Gatsby, it isn't necessarily the case...
#58432
Music: I can't help but like corny 90s bands like Everclear and Bush. I would say Pavement but I really don't feel too guilty about liking them. I should, but I don't.
#58433
TV: Maury Povich, To Catch a Predator, Sometimes I'll watch MTV reality shows like Scarred and True Life, and Cribs if nothing else is on.
#58434
General: Bleu Cheese. Don't knock it 'till you try it.
#58436
This troper thinks that ''Bloody Roar'' 4 is another GP. Yes, the game sucks and kills the franchise, and the voice acting sucks. But hey, you gotta be lying if you don't think that Nagi is hot.
#58437
Tropers/CielPhantomhive
#58438
At least half of what this troper watches on television would qualify to some as being a guilty pleasure. I adore Glee, watch Desperate Housewives and I won't hesitate to admit that my favorite tv show overall is Grey's Anatomy. However, there are a few shows that even I feel a little hesitant to admit to while maintaining my perception of myself as a nerd; I've recently taken to watching Gossip Girl. I started watching it because Taylor Momsen was cute and I stayed because I was sucked into an abyss of drama. Why, yes, I have gotten accusatory looks when I bought the most recent season (the library only had the first two), and I had to defend myself to the cashier when I bought it, but the name is the worst part, I swear. I find how ruthless the characters tend to act towards one another entertaining and affirming of my tendency not to keep many female friends. I also watch America's Next Top Model because a friend of mine likes it and I tag along to mock all of the superficial contestants. Darn you, the CW, for making television that should be beneath me have an entertainment value.
#58439

Subway Sandwiches, not because the way I like them is
too spicy. But because I regret it later

#58441
Tropers/{{Crazael}}
#58442
This troper genuinely enjoys both the ''ToLoveRu'' anime and the manga, not for the fanservice, but for the entertaining characters and plots. The large amount of fanservice, which cuts down ''a lot'' in the anime (outside of the opening, anyway, and the doesn't have much more than most in the genre) is just a nice bonus.
#58443
Really liked ''Alexander'', mostly for the costumes and epic battle scenes.
#58444
Has only ever played the third ''Bloody Roar'' and enjoys it specifically because of the interesting monster fight comboes, like a giant rabbit-girl fighting a giant mole-man.
#58445

#58447
''Björk'': Would be alright, were he not a straight male from
Australia...
#58448
This troper got into her because he fancied her. Feel better?
#58449
Exact same reason this troper did! Thank you!
#58450
''{{Cantopop}}'': He has heard a bit of Miriam Yeung recently, and it was
very beautiful...
#58451
''{{Sailor Moon}}'': Don't get this troper started - he liked this as a kid and even tried to write a crossover-fic between it and Pokemon when he was a kid. To his credit, though, he prefers the Japanese (subtitled) version.
#58453
Tropers/{{Cybele}}:
#58454
''XenoSaga Episode II''. For all the flack this game gets, I will say that this one is my favorite of the trilogy.
#58455
The television anime of ''{{Hellsing}}''. For me it was my introduction to the series, and I still watch it from time to time.
#58456
''HandyManny''. I'm 23 years old and I watch this. I think it's adorable (the wrench is my favorite).
#58457
''FinalFantasyVIII''. This was my first FF game and still remains my #1 favorite.
#58458
''ShadowHearts: From the New World''. Yes, yes, I know Johnny isn't Yuri but, I just love that adorable little detective bastard. Plus, the game has the best Ring battle system of all three games. And still retains an awesome soundtrack. The North America battle theme (Dead fingers talk) is GODLY AWESOME.
#58459
''SpaceJam'' movie. ''"I didn't know Dan Akroyd was in this picture!"'' (So. Frickin'. Hilarious.)
#58460
''ChaosWars''. Yes, the game has an atrocious translation and English voice dubbing. I know. So I set to Japanese voices and had no problems. Plus, just can't resist the fact that I can have Yuri Hyuga from ''ShadowHearts'' and Beyond the Grave from ''GunGrave'' team up to lay the smackdown on some poor sap.
#58461
DevilMayCry 2. Yeah, I know, discontinuity and all, but...while it was pretty weak for a DMC game, I still got some enjoyment out of it, because a decent soundtrack and I thought Lucia was kickass with the knives and all. Plus, well...in my opinion, the game had the best Divinity Statue theme of all the games in the series.
#58462
''DirgeOfCerberus''. Clunky gameplay, overwrought melodrama, limited customization, clunky and really badly designed save system. And yet I still love playing it, because I'm an unrepentant Vincent fan and he's voiced by '''Steve Freaking Blum''', and there's lots of unlockables. Really good soundtrack I might add.
#58464
Playing The {{Hamtaro}} series of games on the GBC and GBA
#58466
This 19-year-old Troper has six soft toys (affectionately dubbed the Bed Crew) that he always sleeps with, whether he is at home, at uni, or on holiday. They consist of a lion Beanie Baby, a panda he got when he was just six hours old, a smaller panda, two dragons (one green, one bue), and
Tinky-Winky. He has no idea why he just admitted to that last one.
#58468
Quite a lot! Let's see...
#58470
TheSims 2 - And not for the VideogameCrueltyPotential; I really like making big neighbourhoods with several generations of succesful and well-dressed inhabitants living in nice houses!
#58471
PrincessMaker 2 - Just for fun
#58473
TotallySpies - It's so over the top, I like it.
#58474
WinxClub - Haven't watched it lately, but I liked the storytelling (and of course the eyecandy)
#58475
AsToldByGinger - Good stories and humor
#58478
TarotWitchOfTheBlackRose - Okay, mostly because of the boobs/nudity, but they're nice comics without it too
#58479
From the same artist: 3 Little Kittens - See above, although without the gratitious nudity
#58480
SheHulk - Funny! And good entertainment too.
#58481
Music (note: I'm a metalhead):
#58482
{{Madonna}} - Because as a former musicology student, you need an open mind towards music, and you can't deny the impact of the Queen of pop
#58483
KylieMinogue - Not everything's that good, but still fun
#58484
Mel C - She rocks! And looks good too (''I turn to you'', anyone?)
#58485
{{ABBA}} - The coverband I play in covered one of their songs, so I decided to download a 'Best of', and also because of their legacy.
#58486
BeeGees - You can't deny the impact this band had on pop music.
#58487
Happy hardcore - Mostly for the nostalgia
#58489
TheLWord - Besides the lesbian sex, the drama, and sometimes comedy, is very good
#58490
XenaWarriorPrincess - Well done {{Fanservice}} never hurt anyone, plus I really enjoy the lighter episodes

''{{Loveless}}'': I bought it for the guys with kitty ears. I didn't realize what it was until I had read it. Never returned it because I was still won over by the kitty ears.
#58494
''{{Beyblade}}'': I still find enjoyment in seeing the odd fanart and reading the manga on the odd occasion due to nostalgia (it was my GatewaySeries). You'll never hear that from me offline though. I never explain why I have two volumes of the manga on the shelf when asked.
#58495
''AxisPowersHetalia'': I read/watch it for the humour and minor history lessons. I try to ignore the HoYay and just enjoy the show.

Despite not being racist, she secretly enjoys minstrel and coon songs. (Really, they're no worse than your typical gangsta rap, if even that bad. Plus, they've got better music.)
#58513
You're comparing gangsta rap (which is a subgenre of rap) to minstrel/coon songs (songs that made a mockery of African-Americans, racist in nature, and enjoyed by only racists? Also, you admit to liking them? There's a reason why you secretly enjoy them (i.e., they're not socially acceptable). Rethink this pleasure for the sake of mankind. Do you also enjoy songs about rape and torture?
#58514
Yeah, I'm sure her listening to the music she likes will corrupt mankind.
#58517
{{TheNineties 90s}} music in general. He loves the various genres (well, except for the rap) that were popular during that generation and thinks they're great, but because he or any of his friends didn't grow up in the 90s, nobody else my age tends to really like it.

#58519
Quite fond of manga and anime, and not just the mainstream ones. Some of the more guily-worthy ones include:
#58520
''{{Freezing}}''. Likes the characters, and would read it even if all the girls were flat. But they aren't, so...
#58521
''LoveHina''. It's just plain funny.
#58522
''MahouSenseiNegima''. Dangit, Akamatsu!
#58523
''TheMelancholyOfHaruhiSuzumiya''. Most of the guilt stems from its RapeAsComedy elements.
#58524
''TheOuranHighSchoolHostClub''. It's just plain funny.
#58525
''RosarioToVampire''. In his defense, he dislikes the PantyShot overdosed anime adaptation.
#58526
''{{Sekirei}}''. No excuse.
#58527
''SpiceAndWolf''. Again, his shame stems not from the series itself, but from the
popular perception.
#58528
''SuperDreadnoughtGirl4946''. Thank god it's still obscure (no wikipedia page yet, at least not in English).
#58529
Then there's the concept of {{moe}}. ''Shudder''.
#58530
This troper is working on writing a novel of his own, but he fears that it might be too {{animesque}}.

Last nail in the coffin: he's a 6'2" guy who sews plush dolls. And he has a CutenessProximity.
#58532
Tropers/{{Emptyeye}}
#58533
Not only did he enjoy the
Dragonball GT that his friend exposed him to, he honestly prefers it to the few episodes of DBZ that he watched. This is mainly because '''stuff actually happened''' in GT, as opposed to the entire episodes of "He's charging his power level...power level is rising....power level still rising...my God, it's still rising!...even I won't be able to block this attack....and it's ''still'' rising!" that made up Z.
#58534
This anonymous troper both prefers Z AND agrees with your sentiment.
#58536
Tropers/EponymousKid
#58537
To preface this: I love comic books. This is important, because to many a lot of these will seem simply ''bad'' rather than "embarrassing to admit you like." In any case, I enjoy a lot of stuff from smaller, independent publishers - and obscure stuff from the largest indie publishers, Image and Dark Horse. So, for instance, I like ''Gearz'' despite a derivative plot and art that fluctuates heavily in quality. I like ''M. Rex'' even though it only lasted two issues and I still can't decipher just what it was about. I like ''Dollz'' and ''Victoria's Secret Service'' even though both are cutesy fanservice-fests with story thrown in as an afterthought. I like ''Scarlet Veronica'' even though it tells a hackneyed old tale that I've seen a million times before. I loved ''Gemini'' even though one of the villains is a colossally fat goth called Dead Weight who has the phrase "Obesely Morbid" tattooed on his stomach. Hell, I even liked the second ''Deadly Duo'' series even with art that would make RobLiefeld say "Tone it down, man." I even thought ''Bloodwulf'' wasn't so bad.
#58538
Tropers/{{Ericho}}
#58539
I enjoy watching the {{Pokemon}} anime, and I sincerely believe it has legitimately good entertainment, and continue to watch it every Saturday morning. I don't care about the massive amount of hate it's gotten. Hey! It's got its own CrowningMomentOfAwesome, FetishFuel, and TearJerker pages on this site! It can't be that bad.
#58540
I grew up with every critic around me (Siskel, Ebert, Leonard Maltin) liking SpaceJam and I am not going to change my opinion because of what the Nostalgia Critic thinks.

#58542
{{Pokemon}} FanFiction. Even more so (The guilt that is, not the pleasure), {{Pokemon}} {{Lemon}} fic. [=~Sturgeon'sLaw~=] is in full effect. I find the most guilt inducing part of reading FanFiction is trudging through the archives trying to find the few good fics.
#58543
Also relating to {{Pokemon}}, breeding, raising and training up the right {{Mons}} to get the right stats and moves at Level 100. It's just so fun for some reason, but I feel like I could be doing something useful with my time.

I actually prefer {{Final Fantasy X-2}} to {{Final Fantasy XII}}- something about the battle system
#58566
I also like {{Devil May Cry}} 2- despite it being widely regarded as the worst in the series, but it was the first DMC game I played, so it holds special significance to me.
#58567
TV/{{The One Show}}. it's just so cheery, it makes me feel not quite as miserable as I do normally.
#58568
I also find {{Justin Lee Collins}} funny, even though he's widely despised in most circles here
#58569
same goes for {{Jack Black}}- although I do think that that king kong remake he was in was a steaming pile of monkey poop.
#58570

I guess this is more of a guilty displeasure, but I don't like {{Guns 'n' Roses}}, and I don't just mean Chinese Democracy, I don't even like Appetite for Destruction. I still learned the opening to Sweet Child o' mine because everyone who plays guitar knows that bit, but I dislike them a lot.

{{Yu-Gi-Oh}} Oh God, there's no ending my insane love for this show. I love all the mains and watched it obsessively and even played the card game when I was a kid. I love {{Little Kuriboh}} and his series to death, but I will always love {{Dan Green}}, Yugi, Yami Yugi, the Dark Magician (and related monsters), the {{Narm}}, and the stuff that goes beyond card games. (/rant). I'm one of those that defends the dub because of {{Nostalgia Filter}} . . . and because if the Internet was only about hate, it'd eventually collapse in on itself.
#58608
{{Glee}} For the singing, though its writing hurts me behind the eyes. Maybe a little for Darren Criss.
#58609
{{Sailor Moon}} I never watched it. I love {{Sailor Moon Abridged}}. But damn if it isn't fun to watch anyway! It's silly and stupid and I won't tell anyone else, but I love the music, Rei and Makoto FTW (mine esp.), and the manga freaking rocks.
#58610
Of course, I'm also a huge sucker for anime and manga of almost any kind as well. I'm an optimist and a procrastinator . . . so name it and I probably know a lot about it. I am the only real shojo nerd in my anime club (and my junior class).
#58611
This is also true of works by some of my favorite actors/companies. Disney? Please! Dan Green, Robin Williams, Doug Walker? I'll pay you so much to watch or just listen to any of them. Too many people on my "Can Do No Wrong" list.

''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'': After beginning to see just how unimpressive this show is compared to the rest of the {{DCAU}}, I hesitate to mention it when listing off my favorite shows. But I still love it - may or may not be
Robin's fault...
#58623
''{{Cyberchase}}'': It was my GatewaySeries for sci-fi, okay?
#58624
''TheInheritanceCycle'': This is a ''big'' one. I have fond junior high memories of them and even though ''Brisingr'' sucked, I'll probably buy book 4 just to see what happens.
#58625
Old {{Disney}} movies in general, especially ''{{Cinderella}}'' (because usually I ''hate'' the Princess movies).
#58626
WinnieThePooh: ''The New Adventures'' specifically, not that [=CGI=] crap they're making now.
#58627
Heavily influenced by
certain Pixar films at a young age...so when I go off to college in a year or so, some of my stuffies are coming with me!
#58629
''MamboItaliano'': A fairly obscure little Canadian film that garnered mostly negative reviews. Still a hilarious and enjoyable ride, even if it was somewhat cliched.
#58630
{{Music/Chicago}}: The band's innovative early repertoire of work is overshadowed by their sugary '80s hits. How embarassing to have to tell people that, okay, this was a good band at one point...
#58631
Even their sugary hits were awesome. Don't feel ashamed.
#58632
''FamilyGuy'': Same deal. It was a good show...
#58633
''CaptainNTheGameMaster''. It's ''terrible''...but it's just such fun to watch. Also, it's seriously surreal to hear
Robotnik as the King. Tons of canon defilement, bad animation, and blatantly incorrect character interpretations are just what make this series so terrifically bad. A true GuiltyPleasure for the ages.
#58634
AmericanIdol's Jacob Lusk. Okay, so he's a flamboyant diva with a penchant for oversinging...but on the other hand, he's a ''flamboyant diva with a penchant for oversinging.'' That's why he's so awesome in the first place! A lot of people hate him, though, so I keep this quiet.

''Superhero Cartoons'': Even as a kid. I had a huge grow-up complex and wanted to feel older than I really was and tried to get myself to stop watching children's cartoons, but I couldn't get my eyes of CartoonNetwork. Suprisingly, I still watch the channel nowadays, occasionally, but it still makes me feel weird.

''ICarly'': Not a very good series... but it's funny!
#58638
''Zoey101'', ''DrakeAndJosh'': see above.

''Literature/{{Twilight}}'': I wanted to see how bad these books are. They turned out to be fabulously fun to read and I really like them. I love all the characters (besides the ones that don't do anything for me); Aro, Alice, Jacob, Rosalie, Bella (I know, I know, MarySue, but there is this little ''something'' about her...), and Jasper, To name a few.

TheGoldenGirls. Bea Arther and Betty White are hilarious! I'm just too young for it to not look weird when admitting to loving it in public.
#58659
HighSchoolMusical. I've been a musical fan most of my life (having grown up watching {{Annie}} and TheWizardOfOz) so I really should hate this series. Truth is, I love it because it's so cheesy.

SabrinaTheTeenageWitch
#58670

#58675
Tropers/{{Hydronix}}
#58676
{{Quest 64}}: If only because of the uniqueness of the game without relying on scrappy controls or cutscenes.
#58677
FinalFantasyVIII: Mmm, story.
#58678
{{Lagoon}}: As... difficult as it is, it provided much that other games couldn't. Beautiful music, good graphics, interesting characters, a pretty decent storyline. Even the gameplay was actually well worked. It just had a hit detection problem.
#58679
SonicTheHedgehog2006: Playing it with my nephew made the game the opposite of terrible. We had lots of fun and lots of laughs.
#58680
PowerRangers: Even the more cheesy seasons like Turbo, Wild Force, and Ninja Storm were enjoyable in a way.
#58681
ShadowTheHedgehog: Could've used a bit more gameplay polish, and other than contradictory cutscenes, the game was extremely enjoyable.
#58682
Tropers/{{inked}} Damn, where do I begin?
#58683
Literature/{{Twilight}} The books and movies are cheesy with bad, bad storytelling, but I love them, especially Eclipse. It looks like a lot of people agree. You ''know'' they're a bad portrayal of an unhealthy romance; you ''know'' Bella's a sue; you ''know'' the prose/acting is terrible at best, and yet omnomnomnomnom. I've seen the first movie too many times to count, and the third movie five times. And I listened to all the commentaries.
#58684
LadyGaga. Too. Damn. Catchy.
#58685
ThePhantomOfTheOpera. All I Ask of You just gets me. I will watch that scene over and over again.
#58686
student/teacher fic. Though always consensual and not too big an age difference.
#58687
fanfiction. Nobody IRL knows I write Twilight humour fics, and squee over every single review.
#58695
Twilight- I will admit the books are not written very well and I've seen better movies, but they are just so entertaining. It's heroin for the brain.
#58696
Rugrats- It's one of those cartoons that I can watch as an adult and still get a kick out of them.
#58698
Historical documentaries- Especially documentaries on royal figures such as Marie Antoinette and Catherine the Great
#58700
Silly cat videos on youtube
#58701
Fanfiction- to be fair though, I've been writing fanfic since I was thirteen and it's good for getting your creativity out.
#58702
Robert Pattinson- I get a lot of shit from my friends for having a crush on him. But to be fair, he was in Harry Potter after all. And is a thousand times better looking than my ex.
#58703
Tropers/JapaneseTeeth
#58704
KamenNoMaidGuy. The ridiculous amounts of pointless FanService are worth it just to watch Kogarashi in action.
#58705
MahouSenseiNegima. Not so much of a guilty pleasure now that it has
grown the beard and become a truly epic series, but back in the early volumes when it was still a Fanservice-y harem comedy thing it definitely counted.
#58706
{{Yu-Gi-Oh}}. Yes I have seen {{Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Series}}, and it is awesome. But I still watch the original version of the show. Not for the plot, but for the duels. I have a weakness for strategy games, so I'll skip whole plot episodes and just watch the duels.
#58707
I have to point this out: if Little Kuriboh hated the Yu-Gi-Oh anime (which from all accounts, he doesn't, he mostly just dislikes the edits 4Kids made), he had spent three years of his life ragging on it.
#58708
ElGoonishShive. The pacing is pretty bad, and the plot has its issues, but it has good art and I can still get an occasional laugh out of it.
#58709
Tropers/Jedd-the-Jedi
#58710
''TotallySpies''. Justified in that the girls are hot and Sam is everything I like in a woman: intelligent, beautiful, athletic, fun personality.
#58711
The first ''TombRaider'' film. Besides Angelina Jolie in padding, I have to admit I found the father-daughter subplot to be quite touching.
#58712
Pick an AwardBaitSong. Almost any one. "My Heart Will Go On", "Kiss From A Rose" "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You", "Don't Wanna Miss a Thing"...all favourites of mine.
#58714
{{Collar6}} - In spite of this webcomic being a Lesbian BDSM spankfest... I can't stop reading it. Also, it's actually improved very rapidly from a once-a-week over-the-top S&M romp to... a thrice-weekly lesbian love story that takes place in a world where BDSM is the new Pokemon. Hey, it's an ''improvement'' -- at the very least, art that was insulting at a once-a-week rate looks much better at 3-a-week.
#58716
This Troper has a perfectly valid reason for collecting stuffed lions of various sizes, and some of the others are sentimental, or classic... No such excuse for sleeping with
Mokona (Larg, not

#58717
Tropers/{{Jeysie}}
#58718
The TeddyRuxpin cartoon. If you can live with it being a bit on the sugary side, it's actually a very decently written cartoon with good characterization and some catchy tunes. Good luck getting anyone to get past the part that you're an adult who admitted liking Teddy Ruxpin, though.
#58719
CareBears songs and episodes, however, are definitely a full-blown guilty pleasure. I still find them kind of cute and charming to listen to, though.
#58720
As is the second season of {{seaQuest DSV}}. Yeah, the writing is campy and cheesy as hell, but... it also gives the secondary characters more spotlight, and there's lots of attractive people in formfitting military uniforms.
#58722
FinalFantasyMysticQuest. It was the first game I finished embarrassingly quickly (12 hrs over one week), it's way too easy, and it's just flawed. And when I had the opportunity to buy back my old SNES cartridge of it I ''lunged at it''.
#58723
Tie-in novels for stuff like ''StarWars'', ''{{CSI}}'', and most shows that I like. Pulp authors need to make a living too, and it's easily rationalized as just being another episode.
#58724
''{{Redwall}}''. See above; it's the same story over and over, but Brian Jacques just has so much ''fun'' describing food and puzzles.
#58725
Tropers/{{Jumpingzombie}}
#58726
''TheHouseOfNight'': Such a big guilty pleasure series for me. The whole series is rather over-the-top: the characters are insane, the amount of romantic entanglements for the main character is mind-boggling, and the plot has some real craziness. The execution isn't fantastic; there is plenty of wasted potential, and it could have been much better. However, it is still entertaining, and great for when I want some twinkie literature.
#58727
[=JupiterAugustus=]
#58728
{{Sailor Moon}}. Even though this troper is a male, he cannot help himself because of the overwhelming cuteness of the female heroines. He also likes the characters Kino Makoto, Meioh Setsuna, and Mizuno Ami (the last is closest to his own personality). In this troper's opinion, the characters look attractive without having to wear "slutty" outfits (Your Mileage May Vary).
#58729
{{Jackass}}. Yes, grown men humiliating themselves by doing questionable acts of physical comedy can be amusing. It helps if one has an odd sense of humor.
#58730
{{Pokemon}}. It may be aimed primarily at children, but this troper dares anyone to find another game series both easy to play for casual gamers and deep enough for the more hardcore gamers. {{Pokemon SoulSilver}} is this troper's favorite game so far.

{{Jerry Springer}}. Perhaps this troper's guiltiest pleasure, watching people of questionable hygiene and even more questionable morals battling one another over matters great and small is highly amusing. Even though it probably saps dignity while it is being watched, it is always good for a few laughs.
#58732
Tropers/JusticeReaper (takes a deep breath)
#58733
BabyLooneyTunes. What can he say? Bugs Bunny as a baby but still as a trickster is just too cute...and it IS the only continuity he knows of where Bugs and Sylvester actually interact with each other.
#58734
BatmanForever. He thinks it may have been Seal's
"Kiss From A Rose" on the soundtrakc that got him hooked.
#58735
CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers. Because, you know, pollution ''is'' bad.
#58737
CtrlAltDel. Yes, he knows it has a {{Hatedom}}, but he still finds it at least a little funny. Besides, he started reading it before he even knew there was a {{Hatedom}}.
#58739
FantasticFour. Both live-action movies are okay, to him.
#58740
FinalFantasy8. He can actually relate to
Zell's being constantly picked on by
Seifer, plus the romantic subplot between
Squall and
Rinoa was actually pretty sweet.
#58741
{{Freakazoid}}. ''Super-teen extraordinare, Freakazoid, Freakazoid...''
#58742
GoofTroop. RuleOfFunny, guys.
#58744
PhilCollins. His music is really nice to listen to.
#58745
PowerRangersWildForce. The opening theme got him hooked.
#58746
ThePowerpuffGirls. Yes, he's a guy. Shut up.
#58747
RoadRovers. Again, the opening theme did it for him.
#58750
Film/StreetFighter. The first live-action movie with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Raul Julia, that is; he believes that StreetFighterTheLegendOfChunLi should be
torched and the ashes doused in acid.
#58751
SuperhumanSamuraiSyberSquad. He used to go home from school every Tuesday evening just to see it on TV.
#58752
TinyToonAdventures. He ships Buster and Babs Bunny
(no relation).
#58753
VRTroopers. Okay, so the acting's on the cheesy side, but he first saw it when he was a kid; he didn't know better, honest!
#58754

#58755
After looking into SuperSentai for a bit, I somehow found myself watching the ''PowerRangers RPM'' premiere, and found it surprisingly enjoyable- I will keep watching!

#58758
IndependenceDay. Yeah, you could fit an aircraft carrier through the PlotHoles. Yeah, I still flinch at the thought of uploading a virus onto an ''alien built'' operating system. But it was pretty damn fun anyways.
#58759
ProfessionalWrestling. My roommate, a thorough {{smark}}, got me into it, and while I'd sooner move to
Boatmurdered than admit it to most of the people I know, I do enjoy its
unique form of
entertainment.
#58760
Rammstein. I can offer no rational reason for why I like it, but I do.
#58762
TroperTales, in particular CardCarryingVillain, CharacterAlignment and MagnificentBastard, which are now on my watchlist. Some of the stories are legitimately amusing or interesting, while others make
otherwise forgotten instincts flare up. (For what it's worth, this page is pretty much always the former, legitimately interesting/amusing.) Hell, I've even posted my share of TroperTales myself, fully aware damn near nobody reads them, except before adding their own
fascinatinly unique little tale themselves.
Not that I'm any better.

Tropers/kingarthur'sdisastersfreak
#58764
{{FairlyOddParents}} and {{Danny Phantom}} became this after getting crap from kids in middle school for liking it. My mom's always nagged me about not talking about cartoons with other kids.....turns out she was right. I don't watch 'em anymore as FOP (warning:
YMMV talk has gone gone downhill and DP simply isn't on Nick anymore.
#58765
{{Total Drama Island}}. I have friends that like it thankfully.
#58767
Same with {{King Arthurs Disasters}} (not as much: I'm probably one of the
biggest fans out there . Only when I watch episodes on my DVD player and compare myself the other kids at school....the colorful DVD covers certainly don't help. XD
#58768
Heck, any kids show that's doesn't have a {{Periphery Demographic}} or merchandise at Hot Topic!
#58769
*looks around* *whispers* : {{Happy Tree Friends}}. Ever since I was 12.
Shhhhh.
#58770
Oh, and {{Justin Timberlake}}.
#58771
Tropers/{{KingSonnDeeDoo}}
#58772
''{{Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog}}'': It kinda doesn't count, since I openly like it, and grew up with it...
#58773
''{{Yu-Gi-Oh}}!'': Oh dear kittens, ''Yu-Gi-Oh''. This troper tries to justify the fact that she likes it (both the show, manga and
The Abridged Series}} parody), by claiming that the manga is violent. At least, it is at the ''start''...
#58774
''Animated/{{The Legend Of Zelda}} Cartoon'': Sure, it's not really that much like
the original series with things such as there only being ''two'' pieces of the '''Tri'''force, and Link often deserving a good smack upside the head for his
catchphrase, and general 'Kiss plz?' attitude to Zelda, but it's good for a giggle.
#58775
Should point out: the series actually only had two pieces of the Triforce (which looks nothing like what I've seen from the show) in the first game.
#58776
''{{To Love Ru}}'': TV Tropes lead me to it. It never fails to make me laugh.
#58777
{{Lady Gaga}}: Blame {{Ear Worm}}.
#58779
''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', GO! Her love affair with the cartoon is a secret that This Troper will probably take with her to the grave.
#58780
The ''{{Pokemon}}'' games as a whole. What's wrong with liking the cute (or awesome) creatures that can kick ass?!
#58781
The various digimon animes, for the same reason.
#58782
Fanfiction in general, but specifically the ridiculously fluffy romance fics.
#58783
Anime and manga overall, and she blames her parents for it. If you were literally ORDERED to put that "silly comic" that you were planning to buy with your OWN money back on the shelf, would you be as willing to own up to having bought it anyways?
#58784
Particularly {{Bleach}} and {{Naruto}}, which after the way "
Illy-yaba" was treated will never be mentioned offline.was:
#58785
Believe it or not, having ADHD. this Troper credits it for her crazier (but at the same time more interesting) writing ideas. But she will rarely bring it up unless someone else does first, and even then will drop the subject as soon as possible.
#58787
Danny Phantom: WHAT?! It's hilarious and dramatic, the have amazing characters, Vlad Masters is a fantastic villain, Danny is a pretty cool hero, and The Ultimate Enemy is by far one of the best episodes of any TV show I've ever seen.
#58788
Xiaolin Showdown: I was hooked from the commercials, for pete's sake!
#58789
Cyberchase: I started watching when I was little, when I was SUPPOSED to be into this kind of thing. I still watch it.
#58790
Teen Titans: Well, come on! It's got awesome characters and they have some fantastic episodes in there. I'm especially partial to Aftershock.
#58791
Winx Club: While I find this show a bit girly, I still love the characters and plot.
#58792
Transformers Animated: About a month ago, it happened to come on while the TV was on and I watched it due to curiosity about Starscream. Two nights ago, I woke up, falling out of my bed screaming at Megatron.
#58793
Anything by Shakespeare: It may not be weird for some people, but I'm still in Junior High!
#58794
Yu-Gi-Oh: Do NOT insult this show in front of me. I once had to be physically restrained by multiple people because someone did. I'm completely obsessed with it. Go on. Ask me a character's birthday. Give me a number, I'll tell you the episode. Want to know someone's zodiac sign? Yep, I can tell you that, too.
#58795
This is the only one I actually feel pretty guilty about. Sure, everyone likes a little drama, and it's no fun if the good guys never lose at anything, but I tend to get a bit too excited when things aren't going well for the hero. Be it a Face Heel Turn, No Holds Barred Beatdown, or the bad guy mind-controlling the hero's best friend and forcing them to duel each other in a timed match while chained to an anchor so that only one of them could survive, chances are I will be watching. And cheering. Cheering so loud that multiple neighbors come over and ask me to please stop or if I'm all right. (Yes, that actually happened. Excuse me for being particularly partial to certain episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh...)

When my brother watches ''Elmo's World'', I usually stand behind him and kinda-sorta watch too. What? - it's just too cute!
#58798
Also, ''ThomasTheTankEngine''.
#58799
He also enjoys the old ''ScoobyDoo''.
#58800
Tropers/{{KurtmanJP}}
#58801
Some soft rock music like Journey and Toto
#58802
The FurryFandom. I normally try keeping a low profile due to the stereotypes surrounding it but I can't help but feel I have a canine soul deep down.
#58803
Licking my own tears. I almost never cry but when my eyes water for some reason, I enjoy the salty taste.
#58804
''AwesomePossumKicksDrMachinosButt'', a video game many called SoBadItsHorrible. For me, it's a nostalgia trip.
#58805
The {{Disney}} movie ''FluppyDogs''. I am quite obsessed with cartoon dogs in general but this is certainly a GuiltyPleasure.
#58806
''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' and ''{{Chowder}}'', despite being a "retro-snob" who hates new CartoonNetwork. Bring back the old shows already but please keep those two running!
#58807
Tropers/{{LadyAmi}}
#58808
The TV I grew up on, Sailor Moon/Scooby Doo/Jonny Quest/Black Hole High etc.
#58809
Burst Angel. I know there's WAY too much fanservice & not enough plot, but it appeals to the guy side of my brain.
#58810
Flowers in the Attic has a metric ass-ton of prose. I don't even know why I keep it...
#58811
HSM2. It's for the Ho Yay, I swear!
#58812
Those stupid younger teen magazines. It's fun to see what my peers are reading.
#58813
Tropers/LavenderCat:
#58814
''QuestForCamelot''. Is it {{Anvilicious}}? Yep. Is it AdaptationDecay at it's finest? Oh, yeah. Is it unbelievably cliched and weird? You betcha. Can it be legitimately entertaining, with some catchy songs and fun characters? You bet your sweet ass it can be.
#58815
Chef Boyardee Mini-Raviolis. My ultimate comfort food, heated up to blistering hot temperatures and coverd in salt!
#58816
Boy bands, specifically N*Sync. When I was eight, I had a crush on Chris (the one with the funky dreds) and actually divided my room with my sister, half to hang up my N*Sync posters, half to hang up her Backstreet Boys poster (''her'' guilty pleasure).
#58817
Tropers/{{Leradny}}
#58818
Anything I bought when I was thirteen or younger that had something to do with unspoiled nature, purpley-prose fantasy, or those horse books aimed at tween girls--but the Mary Stanton series ''UnicornsOfBalinor'' conveniently has all three factors. I still have every book in the series and can't seem to throw them away (not least because their cover art is quite gorgeous).
#58819
Tropers/{{Loki-Chan}}
#58820
While there is some of the things that I like that could be considered like a GuiltyPleasure (like the fact that I pass 1 or 2 hours each day on
a certain wiki), there's one thing on which I feel incredibly guilty. The life of
Mr. Christian Weston Chandler is for me a source of pure entertainment. Yes, some Trolls are going too far and we should have some pity for him. But strangely, even the fact that he is autistic doesn't seem to matter cause he is just that unbelievable. Except him, there is {{BakaToTestToShoukanjuu}}, BigBrother and {{Pokemon}}, of which i'm not really proud to say that I watch or play (I'm 19).
#58821

This troper has had a stuffed
Ernie since the day he was born, and it has never left my room in the 18, almost 19 years of my life. Hell, it's rarely left a spot right next to my pillow. I recently purchased a plushie of Hollow Ichigo that's not going to be leaving it's spot any time soon.
#58823
Tropers/{{Lord of Sushi}}
#58824
I have a few when it comes to anime.
#58825
''Shinryaku! Ika Musume''. Bash me all you want. I just enjoy it.
#58826
''Lucky Star''. Again, I just enjoy it and actually gave it a chance after the first episode.
#58828
This troper absolutely loves Avril Lavigne's songs. She don't like her image(at least not her post-The Best Damn Thing-image. It's not the real Avril, dammit!)but her songs are absolutely awesome, in this troper's opinion.
#58829
This is probably the biggest secret of this troper's life. She isn't entirely sure if she should tell it... okay, she will! *takes a deep breath* IloveTaylorSwiftandthinkshersongsarecutebecausesheskindanerdyandi'mabletoidentifywithher. Don't kill her! D:
#58830
Online dress-up games. This coming from a major tomboy, who's got absolutely no interest in clothes IRL. She uses them to create her fictional characters, dammit!
#58831
Tropers/{{Lurkerbunny}}
#58832
''KodomoNoJikan''. I don't really pay all that much attention to the {{Lolicon}} {{Fanservice}}, but more to the sweeter side of Rin's PrecociousCrush on Aoki-sensei, not to mention the serious topics brought up during the course of the storyline (yes, there is one). Also, the music in the anime kicks major ass.
#58833
''Father's Day''. Yes, the remake of ''Les Comperes'' with RobinWilliams and Billy Crystal. It's actually quite funny, and also it's the last movie ever where Robin had long hair.
And I loves me some long-haired Robin.
#58834
''MorkAndMindy'''s 4th season. Yes, by then SeasonalRot had set in, and
Mearth had arrived. The writers were grasping at straws (Mearth builds a computer that enslaves the family? Really?). But you know what? It's still lighthearted fun (for the most part...
the ending is pretty sad). Jonathan Winters is funny, and it makes me feel kinda warm inside to see him and Robin just improvising together, Robin up there with his idol (perhaps because I hope to one day do the same). And although I had at first feared that Mearth would get in the way of Mork & Mindy's cute moments together, he didn't. Their love was stronger than ever. It's a shame that because one ''just one joke'' in an important final episode, music rights
will probably keep the 4th season off DVD forever.
#58835
The song "Shake It" by Metro Station. My entire personality dictates I should hate this band (and therefore everything that comes from it): They're a tween/teen aimed group, and they're led by
Miley Cyrus' brother (who I find extremely ugly). And yet this one song... I can't help but listen to it over and over. Maybe because it is epic GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
It's about sex, and yet it's
so peppy and bouncy that radio stations and unsuspecting parents think it's about dancing. I have to admire that. Plus, it's catchy as hell. Heaven help me, I might just purchase it on [=iTunes=]
#58837
I love love love love J-Rock, J-guys, J-culture, etc... It doesn't help that I'm 100% Korean. And my parents wonder why I keep everything on my computer a secret from them.
#58838
I'm a closet fan of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai. Not the best things to be interested in when you're in high school and you're surrounded by Joss Whedon fans. At least I can connect to them with our common love of Harry Potter.
#58839
I'm also a fan of "childish anime" like Yu-Gi-Oh!, Digimon, etc. It's explainable to my friends by the fact that we all grew up in the 90s when this stuff was popular, but I still watch this stuff.
#58840
On the other hand, I love guro, rated M stuff, BDSM, and shounen ai. I have friends into the guro and shounen ai scene, but it's a bit hard to find people who are into BDSM like I am.
#58841
My iPod is a secret, too. I have separate playlists for me and for when someone asks to listen to my iPod. I put all the anime character songs, J-Rock, tokusatsu songs, etc. into my playlist along with the rest of my songs into my playlist, and I leave the English and Korean songs, classical pieces, movie and musical soundtracks, and everything else that won't hint to my J-phile nature into the "public" playlist.
#58842
Just to get it out there, by no means am I a weeaboo. I don't break out in {{Gratuitous Japanese}} nor do I create Mary-Sues and cosplay outside of conventions (actually I've never cosplayed before). Yes, I prefer J-music over my motherland K-music, but I love both equally.
#58843
malaysiabol3h: As much as I'm ProudToBeAGeek, there are a few things that I do feel just a tad embarassed about. Such as:
#58844
HaremSeries - Sometimes they can be
pretty funny in spite of all the blatant {{fanservice}}. Specific examples:
#58845
{{Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun}}.
#58848
Oreimo, moreso the manga.
#58849
KuroganePukapukaTai
#58850
OnaniMasterKurosawa: This manga actually changed my life in an incredibly positive way, making me feel good about life and inspiring me to contact my old friends and cherish the times we had together. But I'll be damned if I admit that ''this'', of all things, was the reason behind it.
#58851
CuteyHoney, especially ''Flash''.
#58852
Due to the increasing amounts of nudity and {{fanservice}}, NeonGenesisEvangelion is becoming this.
#58853
...you know what, anything that involves {{fanservice}} in general.
#58854
LuckyStar and {{K-On}} during their cutesy bits, the latter more so.
#58855
BlackRockShooter, sort of, mainly because of the cutesy non-combat sequences.
#58856
{{Caligula}}. Never seen it, but nonetheless fascinated with it (thanks,
Brad). Where's that damned 1981 R-rated cut?
#58857
TheCinemaSnob himself, since he does review porn occasionally.
#58858
FootFocus: I do have a foot fetish, but for fear of being called a pervert, I keep it under wraps. Not as easy as you'd think.
#58860
{{Digimon}}. I liked it when I was a kid and still like it.
#58861
Digimon Frontier. This desreves a special mention because so many people think it sucks.
#58862
The Inheritance Cycle. Same as above (they're not THAT bad).
#58863
Much of the stuff that was on Cartoon Network before June of 2004 (when, in my opinion, it went downhill). Most of the stuff on before then was good. The stuff now sucks.
#58864
Chowder and Flapjack: Except these two.
#58865
Adventure Time: And this.
#58866
I write fanfics, very geeky ones.
#58867
Singing in the car. God damn it, I do it, but I kinda care who knows it.
#58868
"Kids Games"- My dad and brother think anime, [=RPGs=], stuff like Mario and Zelda, are childish. That said, I have a copy of KingdomHearts hidden in my sock drawer awaiting the day I can get a new PS2 (read: one that works. My old one crapped out when I first tried to play Kingdom Hearts).
#58870
{{Pokemon}}: I just got back into these games and wonder why I ever stopped (oh yeah, peer pressure). This is actually the thing that made me want to get a DS (as soon as I have the cash).
#58871
Tropers/{{Mercury}}
#58872
This troper admits, with only a little bit of guilt, to enjoying such films as ''The People Under the Stairs'', ''Twister'' and ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'' (yes, she prefers it to the show. Why yes, she is a blasphemer.)
#58873
Tropers/{{Metz77}}
#58874
This troper bought a signed, numbered copy of the hyperion-plate edition of the latest t.A.T.u. single as a gift for his best friend and can't wait for the album.
#58876
The ''{{Pokemon}} Ranger'' games. As a stand-alone game, it's pretty good. As a Pokemon game, it's... still pretty good. And, believe it or not, there's actually some pretty good Douglas Dinsdale-esque {{Woolseyism}}s to be found in there, if you can get past the
Ordon kids-esque praise.
#58877
''Pokemon Mystery Dungeon'' as well. The story and ending are nothing like your everyday Pokemon game.
#58878
JohnnyTest. Is it anything like what it was before the jump to
Conspicuous Flash? No. Is it still worth watching? Yes.
#58879
''Cyberchase'': Hey, it's got Christopher "
Doc Brown" Lloyd and Gilbert "
Iago" Gottfried in it...
#58880
''FamilyGuy''. 'Nuff said.
#58881
''AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog.'' The OffModel moments tend to be so jarring they're hilarious, and Long John Baldry's portrayal of Robotnik is ''perfect''.
#58883
''FreddyGotFingered''. It's of course critically reviled and basically 90 minutes of DeadBabyComedy gags and yelling very loosely stapled to an ExcusePlot, but I still found it at least entertaining enough to end up watching the whole thing on HBO one boring afternoon, and now even have the DVD.
#58884
''Sixteen Stone'' by Bush - they're a FollowTheLeader grunge band with some truly ridiculous WordSaladLyrics, but the singles are catchy, "Alien" is actually quite pretty despite meaning absolutely nothing, and the rest of it mostly gets by on the nostalgia factor, since it is one of the first cd's I ever bought.
#58885
{{Ministry}}'s ''With Sympathy''. I can understand why Al Jourgensen see it as OldShame (especially with that FakeBrit accent he put on), but it's a fun bit of synth pop/goth lite and I'd take it over almost everything they've done since ''Filth Pig''.
#58886
LadyGaga, but specifically just ''The Fame Monster''.
#58891
ForumWarz, mainly due to my nervousness of someone looking over my shoulder to see what I'm doing.
#58894
I currently have Optimus Prime and
Duke sitting on my windowsill in my room waving
American Flags for all to see.
#58896
Anime and Japanese-related material in general is something of a guilty pleasure for This Troper. It's not exactly something you say out loud in public.
#58897
I guess a special mention might go to liking ''AxisPowersHetalia''...''as a man.''
#58898
Reading and writing fanfic is also one.
#58900
{{Shoujo}} I know that it's for girls, but it's much more interesting than a spikey-haired {{shounen}} {{IdiotHero}} swinging his {{BFS}.
#58901
Made stranger by the fact that this troper is a straight 17 year old gun-loving whiskey-shooting man who can get {{AxCrazy}}
#58902
I'm a total {{kuudere}}, a Cat Lover, and I play {{GearsofWar}} and with bloody glee, I generate {{Gorn}} by dismembering people with the chainsaw
#58903
{{Eureka Seven}} I first watched it when I was 14 and loved it. I won't admit it to anyone, but I find it so engaging and it
#58904
Every Time We Touch
#58905
Lolcats, failblog; cheezburger network
#58906
Fanfiction, well, the good stuff at least.

#58924
Might as well admit it: ''WarriorCats''. The writing is
acceptable,
it drags on at times and the authors need to work a little harder at characterization. It's enjoyable to read nevertheless. Not amazing, not terrible, but fun. It's not unlike how my dad views the JamesBond novels.
#58925
Tropers/{{Nausicaa}}
#58926
Defied! I love DreamPop and distortion heavy Shoegaze a la MyBloodyValentine and have a love for the PerishingAltRockVoice, but my three favourite musical artists are LadyGaga, {{U2}} and AdamLambert. I'd never dream of being "guilty" about them, because their music brings me so much happiness. I don't mind saying that I like them to my more hipster-y acquaintances, because I love their music so much.
#58927
Similarly, my favourite film is, for all intents and purposes, the StreetFighter movie starring Raul Julia, and I don't care if my hipster friends think it's stupid.
#58929
Even though I almost exclusively listen to metal and alternative metal, still I like Blink 182.
#58930
Some shoujo anime, most notably ShugoChara.
#58931
I breed some sympathy for Shadow the Hedgehog (the game). If only it had more redeeming points...
#58933
[=Nerfinator=] - There's a ton of these here folks.
#58934
The ''Animated/TheLegendOfZelda'' and ''WesternAnimation/SuperMarioBros'' cartoons. They're just hilariously awful.
#58935
Plushies. So...sooo...CUTE! This probably would extend to my Toy collecting.
#58936
The ''FLCL'' Manga. I have no idea why.
#58938
Just about any cartoon/anime not meant for an older audience. (I'm lookin' at ''YOU'' ''TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack Flapjack.''
#58939
''AzumangaDaioh''-So guilty about this when I start buying the DVD's I'm probably going to hide my face at the store and hide them Under my bed. Shame because my parents will just Instantly assume it's a ''PornStash''because a- under my bed. the most sterotypical place to find a teen's Happy time objects and b- OMGz GiRLZ on D FRUNT!!11!

Lastly pretty much anything Nick@Nite plays. except ''TheNanny'' I hate The Nanny.
#58942
My hentai collection.

#58944
Disney music. I dunno, I probably have an eclectic taste in music anyway, but this kinda stands out. I think Menken and Schwartz' songs helped make ''{{Pocahontas}}'' that much more watchable.
#58945
''TheSarahJaneAdventures''. Unironic love. Androvax from series 3 and 4 is one of those threatening but fun villains.
#58946
Certain episodes of new ''Series/DoctorWho'' that it's not cool to like. Screw you guys, the Slitheen are excellent villains.
#58947
''[=~300~=]''. And yes, I know that a large portion of the movie is just some racists stabbing other racists with mutants and giant animals in slow-mo...what's your point?
#58948
''{{Pokemon}}'' music, from the games and
the anime (English and Japanese).
#58949
''TheLegendOfZelda'' and ''SuperMarioBros'' series, mainly because I don't really identify as a gamer any more.
#58950
''Film/{{Transformers}}'' (2007). I didn't care for ''Revenge of the Fallen'', but I know I'm gonna see the third one anyway.
#58951
From bits and pieces that I've seen as of August '10, ''{{Digimon}}'', especially ''
Tamers''. Hey, it's
JesuOtaku's 20-somethingth favourite anime, after all.
#58953
''{{Terminator}} 3''. Slightly disappointing sequel to my favourite movie of all time, but not exactly BAD. See also ''Film/{{Spider-Man}} 3'', though that one admittedly has stupid or confusing moments.
#58954
''{{Lost}}'', post-season 1 or 2. I think that speaks for itself. Once again, unironic.

''DragonBall''. May not be the best thing ever, but has its awesome moments, for sure. And yes, I do sometimes mock the powering up and [=HYAAAAAAHHHHHHing=].
#58956
''TheWorldIsNotEnough''. Keep in mind that I haven't seen ''[=~GoldenEye~=]'', the one generally seen as Brosnan's best Bond film. A bit pun and one liner-heavy, but that's part of the charm.
#58957
Depending on the company, ''Film/{{Avatar}}''. I think my main problem is the pacing and length rather than the plot and how original or {{Anvilicious}} it may be.
#58958
''Come Fly With Me''. It's from the LittleBritain team; I think by definition finding it funny makes it a guilty pleasure, even if it's an improvement over ''Little Britain''.

Going by the couple of episodes I saw in repeats in early 2011, ''UltimateMuscle'' may be heading there, if almost certainly through

I was never a fan of the Korean drama series "Winter Sonata." And then its anime version came out. Now I'm downloading Episode 13. (Probably qualifies as a subverted AndTheFandomRejoiced.)

Despite more or less admitting to
slashing characters with HoYay willy-nilly, ''{{BoysLove}}'' is my guilty pleasure. It's so full of {{Narm}} and SoBadItsGood melodrama (along with ridiculous cliches and the like) that I can't take even series that are ''
considered good'' seriously. I daren't usually talk about anything other than slash with
fellow fans for fear of how ridiculous I find the whole genre being found out. Only The Ring Finger Knows is ''absolutely hilarious'', although it might have been moreso because I read it in German... I'm currently reading one called "Tenki Youhou no Koibito" (The Weatherman is My Lover) and I have trouble believing that anyone could not
snark at it in some capacity. Of course,
your mileage may vary. Please don't skin me.
#59002
{{DNAngel}}: The plot is weird and kind of silly, but I can't help love it anyway. It's, erm, strangely captivating, to say the least.
#59003
Badfic: It's so horrible, but I can't look away.
#59004
The Master of Disguise: A horribly stupid comedy movie stacked with ridiculous gags and overly blatant parodies. Nonetheless, a guilty pleasure of mine ever since I rented it as a last resort for a sleepover. Operation Minty Hippo, heehee. There are injokes revolving around it by now. It'd probably be great to spork.
#59005
{{Torchwood}}: Should be pretty much self explanatory, really.
#59006
{{Sekirei}}: It's harem fanservice tournament manga. I'm a girl. You do the math. Also, pretty much the whole MostCommonSuperPower aspect adds a whole new layer of hilarity to it for me.

Nope, once the DVD's in, it almost always ends up skipping ahead to

''Literature/{{Twilight}}'': Pretty much every criticism I've seen of this series is absolutely true. But, for some reason, I had a blast reading it, and not in an ironic sense either. It's horribly, horribly flawed, and Edward is a disgusting StalkerWithACrush, but dammit, these books are just plain entertaining.
#59159
''{{Arthur}}'': I've watched this from a ''very'' young age, and I still do - not just because of nostalgia, but because it's simply a very clever, well written kids' show.
#59160
''{{Pokemon}}'': The first three seasons, anyway. I came because I was the only preschooler that hadn't seen it yet, and stayed because Team Rocket kick ass. But, no matter how excited I get when I see Cartoon Network rerunning an old episode, I'd never admit it offline. (The games aren't a GuiltyPleasure for me, but a regular pleasure that I have no problem admitting to anyone)

This troper is not guilty about liking ''StarTrekIII'', even if Robin Curtis was an ''atrocious'' Saavik. If it weren't for her I might actually love it, but any scene with her in it is just painful. Besides, Vulcans just shouldn't have 80's bouffant perms.

Romances in general. I don't feel too guilty about loving romantic comedies, but my tendencies in fanfiction...and G-d forbid, an actual romance novel?
#59177
On that subject, when I first learned of the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' series, it hadn't gone viral yet. I just heard that there were vampires and werewolves and stuff, and thought it might be a romance novel that I could read without feeling guilty. And you know what? I liked it. Granted, probably not for the same reasons most ''Twilight'' fans like it--I'm of the opinion that each book was ''better'' than the previous one--but I like the series as a whole. You know, if you can get past the PurpleProse early on, it actually becomes a halfway decent action series as well somewhere around the midpoint of ''Eclipse''? The first book, okay, fine, it's shit. It really is. ''New Moon'', not great, but it has a high concentration of Jacob, which makes it okay. ''Eclipse'', still a bit tedious with the LoveTriangle, but there are some good action scenes. ''BreakingDawn''? Everyone
Takes A Level In Badass. Even Bella becomes slightly useful, although her biggest contribution is still giving birth to Renesmee. What most people consider the JumpingTheShark moment, I consider GrowingTheBeard. I am not ashamed to say that I loved ''Breaking Dawn''.

''AliceOnDeadlines'': Okay, this manga doesn't even try to ''pretend'' that it's about anything other than {{Fanservice}}. I really feel dirty for reading it.

World Wrestling Entertainment. I know its scripted, predetermined, and mostly fake, but DAMN it's entertaining!
The Undertaker is just badass. Chris Benoit is one of the best wrestlers ever. There's also Natalya and Maryse,
for obvious reasons. Sin Cara, Daniel Bryan, Rey Mysterio, Stevie Richards, Christian, Booker T, Diesel, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Alex Riley..... the list goes on.
SCREW JOHN CENA! But hey, at least
THE ROCK IS BACK!

This troper also has every ''MarioParty'' game up to 7 (he never got around to getting 8 or DS, though he still plans to). He doesn't care that they're just MissionPackSequels; after all, he gets them for the new minigames. But that's not the real guilty pleasure here. No, that would be how he likes to set up an ''all-CPU'' game and just watch the computer players play the game, instead of playing the game himself. Yeah. Oh, and he also does this for SuperSmashBros games too.
#59191
Oh, and also: ''MarioParty'' minigame music. Yes, he has that, too. He has actually been criticized once for such music being "not real music"... but who cares, it's so darn
catchy!
#59192
More musical madness:
#59193
This troper added the main-page entry for children's music/Sunday School music. Yeah, he likes it that much.
#59194
Video game music. Some of it's really good. And then this troper discovered the
jazz-prog-rock remixes of music from the DatingSim ''TokimekiMemorial''. .
#59195
Anime theme songs. The classics are all good, but there's also all the cutesy ones that give him his
sugar fill.
#59196
As an extension of video game music: Bemani music. Of course, some of it is
truly awesome... others, like a number of the more cutesy PopNMusic entries or various eurobeat songs, are more this.
#59197
As an alternate note, if a licensed song gets into any music video game, it automatically increases the chance that song will enter my music collection, or that I would otherwise regularly search for the song on YouTube. Yes, even if that song is
Material Girl.
#59198
''RockBand'' gets a special mention here, for confirming when they released the first Country pack... that I actually ''like'' country music. (At least, if it's done well enough. I certainly don't hate the genre on principle.)
#59199
{{ABBA}}. Wouldn't be that big of a problem, if this troper weren't a straight young male...
#59200
Remember that English ImageSong album for ''{{Pokemon}}'', "2BA Master"? Or the various Inspired By albums released for the first two movies? Or the CD released with the 3rd movie that came with assorted songs sung at the end of the Johto shows? Yeah, this troper has those CD's, and likes quite a lot of songs from all of them. Oh, and he also has the PokeRAPs memorized... which actually got him a bit of fame at camp many years ago...

I enjoyed an AceAttorney SlashFic. I actually hate Fanfiction overall, but this one was... amazing. It was recommended on the Tv Tropes recommendations page, it was a legit pairing (AdrianxFranziska) the OC was good, etc. I actually hate Romance too. Hrm.

''Pokemon'' games. Yes, it's tedious. Yes, it's thought of as for kids. But I gorram like it! And have a lvl 100 party.

{{Ikkitousen}} - It's so fucking horrible that it's perfect in a way. At least it taught me a little about the Romance of The Three Kingdoms.
#59224
{{Kagihime}} - It's not so much the story that hooks me in (the premise sounds great, but let's face it Kaishaku were only doing it for the fanservice) but the
character designs and the keys.
Freaking keyblades. What's not to like?
#59225
WinxClub - The {{narm}} overflows into awesome. Plus it has plenty of CostumePorn and stylised SceneryPorn. So what if there's a few

Pokemon the First Movie: I don't care what anyone else says, I like this movie for several reasons like the message in the dub how "Fighting is Wrong" (A message I think more people should listen to), and the fact that the main character was
STRUCK DEAD AND TURNED TO STONE AND THEN REVIVED MOMENTS LATER!'' That's pretty deep for a kid's movie...

Additionally, {{Pokemon}} is the greatest series of games ever invented. This troper invents new Pokemon for fun. No, I don't have a girlfriend, why do you ask?

This troper is a huge metalhead and yet has a fondness for the band that got him into music in the first place... LinkinPark... shut up, they're not... that... bad... *sighs*
#59282
Linkin Park are fine as long as you don't take them seriously.
#59283
This troper's mother, for some inexplicable reason, loved that band. This troper is an unrepentant metalhead, whose favorite bands include Nightwish, In Flames, and DevilDriver, and even he doesn't think Linkin Park is all that bad, though he'd never admit it aloud for fear of losing his street cred.
#59284
This troper is a longtime Linkin Park fan (while still enjoying the music by the likes of Aqua and the Dave Matthews Band - I have very eclectic tastes, you see.)
#59285
This troper enjoys Linkin Park, but equally enjoys spoofing their cookie-cutter emo style. "Craaaaawling iiiiiiin my eeeeeend! It doesn't matter what's craaaaaaawling iiiiiiin my eeeeeeeeend!"

This troper strangely enough never liked music until age sixteen, then became obsessed with rap (even mimicking the speech; year of my life I will never live down), eventually moved to heavy rock and initially disliked female lead singers and now stands with {{Nightwish}}, {{Evanescence}}, WithinTemptation and ''Avril Lavigne'' as his favorites with only {{Disturbed}} ranked higher. He nonetheless admits this all proudly! You can imagine the reaction, especially when it is known this troper has played Girlfriend over two hundred times. Don't you judge my taste!
#59293
You might be surprised when I say this, but when I think of good Batman films, I would actually prefer to watch BatmanAndRobin than either of TimBurton's Batman films. To me, this is basically the film of the 60's TV series. In fact, I have a theory that Joel Schumacher actually knew that the Batman film series was going down the toilet, so this was his SpringtimeForHitler, except here, it worked. Unlike most bad films, this one is actually aware that it's stupid, and just has fun with it. Well, okay, the villains have fun with this movie. George Clooney and Alicia Silverstone are just wallowing in their own self-pity and are the closest thing to painful, but ArnoldSchwarzenegger and UmaThurman are so much fun to watch. Don't get me wrong,
Batman Begins and The Dark Knight are much better takes on Batman in general, and Uma Thurman has done some great serious work (
well,
with QuentinTarantino, anyway).
#59294
I also have FetishFuel for just about anything weird happening to women, particularly in commercials. The short version includes clones/twins, dismemberments, age regression, masculine voices, invisibility, extra body parts... of course, if I listed all my weird fetishes, we'd be here all night.

''TheATeam''. Dear Jesus, ''The A-Team''! I haven't even seen the new movie yet, but I accidentally discovered the show on reruns, and I sort of fell in love with it, despite its major flaw. Yes, it's sexist and features a lot of stereotypes, but main cast makes the A-Team so darn enjoyable when they easily could have come across as hideously annoying. And Murdock's antics never fail to make me laugh.
#59320
''{{Torchwood}}'': I enjoy it and I don't care what anyone thinks. It's actually quite fun to watch, and Captain Jack rocks my socks!
#59321
''SailorMoon'': I read the manga when I was thirteen, and I liked it. I realize that it was pretty ridiculous now, but something about it was just so...alluring. And it had one of the
catchiest theme songs ever. I still like to listen to the theme song and sing along. Heck, even my ''brother'' likes the theme song.
#59322
''{{Smallville}}'': The men are ''pretty'', Lois Lane is a spunky smartass, and the Green Arrow is just ''awesome''. That's worth putting up with Lana's blah-ness in my book.
#59323
And now she's gone. Hooray!
#59324
The ''Junie B. Jones'' series: This book series is meant for elementary-school-age children, but they're so freaking hilarious that I read them when I was fourteen and loved every single one of Junie B.'s antics. I wonder if my sister still has those books...
#59325
Thank you for validating the taste of six-year-old me. ^_^
#59326
''{{Arthur}}'': Like SonicPanther, I find this show as entertaining at age 20 as I did at age seven. There's a little bit of nostalgia involved, but mostly, it ''is'' really well-written and entertaining. The humor is always great and the characters are cool -- D. W. is my favorite: so many people write her off as a whiny brat, but she's really just normal little kid who, at age four, is one of the youngest {{Deadpan Snarker}}s I've ever seen.
#59327
''SpaceJam'': Does it make any sense? No. Is it full of product placement? Yes. Is it funny? HELL YES!! I don't care what TheNostalgiaCritic says. It's hilarious in spite of the fact that it was made for strictly superficial reasons. Really, who doesn't get a kick out of watching Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Mugsy Bogues, and those two other basketball plays lose their talent and attempt to play? And then when they're at the psychiatrist's office...

I suppose the above three fall under the "Shatters traditional view of men to pieces" category. Feh, traditional gender roles are outdated darn it.

#59358
''JPop'': Yes, it is total weaboo bait, but its so catchy! I hide my like of it (and anime to an extent) cause I am honestly interested in the true Japan. Japan's pop culture and its real culture are as separate as earth and sky. Most people don't get that.

''Onechanbara''. The graphics are terrible, even for a budget title, and the story doesn't make a whole lot of sense (since the 2008-released {{Wii}} and {{Xbox 360}} games are sequels to games released only in Japan), but there's always something cathartic about ripping through

Strangely, I have little problem voicing my liking for Twilight in real life conversation; it's talking to people on the internet where I get embarrassed.

With ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', ''AvatarTheLastAirbender'' and ''DannyPhantom'', it's a reverse of the above. I have no trouble geeking about my adoration of the series on the internet and to my close friends and family (and I honest-to-God think the shows are great). Towards other people (especially at school), I get worried that a) people will think I'm weird for liking something a lot of people there might not have heard of an b) once I explain, think I'm weird for liking cartoons. Especially if I admit that I actively look for episodes on the interwebz to watch...

I enjoy romantic stories and subplots. They make me feel all warm and fuzzy!

I have a soft spot for children's cartoons. You know, SpongebobSquarepants, TheFairlyOddParents, etc.

SwatKats for its sometimes dumb plots but amazing use of anime style artwork

TotalDramaIsland series (I didn't see much of Total Drama Action) for its general goofiness and unique characters, like
