I'll start. If I had favourite TV shows, one of them would be Charmed. I'm just a sucker for Alyssa Milano in tight pants and low-cut shirts.

Sometimes Oprah but I am not sure it is intended primarily for women, although more women probably watch.

How do I know if a show is primarily made for women? Other than "The View", which I don't watch, I can't think of any.

I don't like chick flicks however, I watched charmed simply because I have been an Alyssa Milano fan for years..does that count? Mainly I only rent DVDs so don't watch TV.

It isn't a "chick flick" because a woman is the central character.
Lara Croft would not be a character in a chick flick.

Brokeback Mountain might be considered a chick flick, even though the central characters are men.

So I don't think Alyssa Milano is known for being in chick flicks. Was she the girl from "Who's the Boss"?

Well yah, I know THAT, lol. Charmed is considered a chick flick by some, especially the male crowd. I never looked at it as such but is why I asked.

Yep, who's the boss.
