Today’s Question: Do you watch/listen to “talk” shows with a monologue, interview(s), and musical guest ? Yes If so, which segment do you prefer/like best: Depends on the host/guest. The only monologs I currently enjoy are by Kimmel. I rarely listen to the musical guest. the monologue, the interview, the music-or other parts of the show ?
Extra Credit: Have you ever found yourself getting emotional at the conclusion of a tv series (when the shows ends permanently, with no more episodes being made) ? Yes. I'm kind of addicted to the competition reality shows and will tear up when someone thanks their loved ones. And very occasionally I know that I will really miss watching a series (Battlestar Gallactica). Bonus: How long or short are your fingernails: Are they shorter than, longer than, or even with (end at) fingertips ? Very slightly longer than. Really long nails give me claustrophobia, as does fingernail polish. Just for Fun: Have you ever smoked a cigar or (tobacco) pipe ? No
Do you like or dislike either of those smells ? I LOVE pipe scent (reminds me of Grandpa) and HATE the smell of cigars. How do people smoke those things, do they even have any taste buds left??
Today’s Question: Do you watch/listen to “talk” shows with a monologue, interview(s), and musical guest ?
Almost never. I don't trust any of them anymore.
If so, which segment do you prefer/like best: the monologue, the interview, the music-or other parts of the show ?
N/A
Extra Credit: Have you ever found yourself getting emotional at the conclusion of a tv series (when the shows ends permanently, with no more episodes being made) ?
Not really.
Bonus: How long or short are your fingernails: Are they shorter than, longer than, or even with (end at) fingertips ?
I trimmed them recently, so not long. I avoid cutting them too short, I've done that before to where it causes bleeding and/or pain in the fingertips.
Just for Fun: Have you ever smoked a cigar or (tobacco) pipe ? Do you like or dislike either of those smells ?
I've never smoked, but the smell doesn't bother me either.
I think you mean the sort of 'Tonight' show format? I prefer the old style Michael Parkinson chat show we had here in England for many years. Michael didn't do monologues. He just got his guests on and chatted to them. A telly show that saddened me to end recently was 'Boardwalk Empire.' Truly epic.

Don't watch talk shows. Don't have a lot of time to watch tv these days.

It's annoying when an enjoyable tv series comes to an end or is cancelled...i'm not sure i get emotional unless annoyed counts.

Yes, my current favorite show, Justified, will be having its last season starting in January. I'm afraid everyone will be killed in the finale. Usually the last episode of a drama, stinks, though.

Maybe once or twice a year I wouldn't mind smelling a cigar. Pipes tend to be a little too fragrantly sweet smelling so it depends on the tobacco and then once or twice a year and as long as it isn't in my home. Too much sweet pipe smell would make me nauseous.
Today’s Question: Do you watch/listen to “talk” shows with a monologue, interview(s), and musical guest ? If so, which segment do you prefer/like best: the monologue, the interview, the music-or other parts of the show ?
Usually only if there's a guest I want to see which isn't often.

With Lost I did.
Michael Giacchino's beautiful score, a cute dog, it was hard not to.

I have a horrible nail biting habit. I bite my toenails as well.
Anyway, they look nice with a little length to them if I can manage, but I don't like them too long because they just get in the way.

I've never smoked anything, period, unless you count a piece of rolled up notebook paper. That was the extent of my experiencing.
