Speed dating, TiVo style

TiVo is playing matchmaker. On
Monday, TiVo is hosting a speed dating party with hundreds of its single subscribers in the San Francisco area. Singles
will wear name tags that list their favorite television shows and they will be paired up with other singles who list the
same shows as their favorites. And, in true TiVo style, daters will use "Thumbs Up" and "Thumbs
Down" stickers on their cards to rate their potential mates. Unfortunately, they cannot fast forward the boring
candidates. To get an invite to the event, you have to take the matchmaker
quiz (and be in San Francisco by Monday).Let's say you're on a blind date where your date tells you what shows he/she watches. What shows would make you never call him/her again? I'd run from anyone who watches Dr. Phil.
