Many people like watching TV in their free time. It’s one of my favourite pastimes too. However, I try not to spend a lot of time in front of the screen. I usually watch music channels, new and interesting films, funny cartoons and educational programs. I’d like to tell you a little bit about my favourite TV program. It’s an informative show called “Galileo”. It is named after a famous scientist Galileo Galilei, who liked making experiments. I watch this program regularly and try not to miss the next issue. It is usually shown at weekends. Each time the presenter of the program Alexander Pushnoy explains different phenomena of nature and shows amazing experiments. Most of all I like the part with these experiments. In my opinion, “Galileo” show is interesting not only for children but also for adults. Not every adult knows seemingly obvious facts. For example, why the sky is blue, why the sugar is sweet, how the paste is colored in tubes. This program can surprise even the most skeptical spectator. Usually each edition contains five different stories and experiments.
My favourite TV programme. It is called "Fear factor". This is an American sports stunt reality show. The host is Joe Rogan. In the beginning of each programme Joe says: "The stunts you are about to see were all designed and supervised by trained professionals. They are extremely dangerous and should not be attempted by anyone, anywhere, anytime". And this is true!! The normal format involves three men and three women, who have to complete three professional stunts to win US $ 50,000. If a contestant is too scared to attempt a stunt, failed to complete a stunt, or had the worst performance on a stunt, he\she is eliminated from the competition. Sometimes the stunts are really scary. For example, one has to jump from one biulding to the other and the height is over 50 meters. The player with the best performance wins the grand prize, usually $ 50,000, and had the privilege of being informed by Joe Rogan that "evidently, fear is not a factor for you". As for me, I think I could complete some of the stunts. Unfortunatelly, one has to live in the USA to take part in the programme.
