生活英语情景口语:实在没什么电视好看...

F: what are you watching on the telly?

H: there's a great sitcom on Channel 3 that stars in about three minutes.

F: which one is that?

H: the office. Have you watched it?

F: I've seen the British version and loved it, but have never seen the American version.

H: it's almost exactly the same. I think it's a hilarious show.

F: what are you watching now?

H: they're just showing highlights of American Idol from last night right now.

F: I can't stand American Idol! I think it's really over-rated.

H: I couldn't agree with you more.

F: have you got satellite, cable, or digital TV?

H: we have digital TV. It's amazing though---even with 100 channels, there's often nothing on that I'd want to watch!

F: do you watch a lot of TV then?

H: I guess so. I'm bit of a couch potato. How about you?

F: I don't have a TV at home, so I rarely watch anything. Is there anything worth watching after the office?

H: there's actually a documentary on the history channel later on that I'd like to watch. Do you want to stay and watch it with me?

F: why not? I don't have anything better to do!
