Our local cable provider, visions of shekels<BR/>dancing in their collective minds, decided to push both of the premium channels of into no-man's<BR/>land, which would require more hardware to recapture. Instead, my<BR/>viewing has dropped almost to nil,<BR/>and since I'm still being billed for the now absent <I>Sopranos</I>,<BR/><I>Bill Maher</I>, and <I>Deadwood</I>, I'm thinking of punting the whole shebang out the<BR/>window. I can honestly say that I<BR/>have heard of the so-called reality<BR/>shows and shlock factor talk shows,<BR/>but have never seen a complete episode of any of the genres. The<BR/>idea seems to be, keep lowering the<BR/>standard, until TV itself no longer<BR/>has any genuine information, or is<BR/>disregarded universally- the internet is, at least for the moment, a much more varied source<BR/>of amusement, if not corroborable<BR/>information. People have so much <BR/>stress now, that there's bound to<BR/>be some media hotshot, all ready<BR/>to roll out a 24x7 <I>Ingredients</I> channel, in which some vapid announcers read the lists of crap from the sides of cereal boxes, toilet paper rolls, and designer soup cans, around the clock. Maybe QVC will try this out- people are already demonstrating a complete inability to turn away, or turn it off, regardless of how primordial their viewing experience turns out. Jeezus, I wish I could afford a trailor! I'm gonna get me a "Piece<BR/>o' the Rock", and crawl up under it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
