I don't think I am alone in my opinion, but TVIS! It is my hope and belief that network television will be nothing more than a bad dream in the near distant future. Shows like Dog, Bachelor, Bachelor Pad (or should I say Bachelor "Patch", where everyone is showing their patch!"), Teen Mom, Celebrity Apprentice, Big Brother, Toddlers & Tiaras, Swamp People...IS THIS FOR REAL??? To think I pay amost $100 a month to watch this crap!! The cable companies force you to purchase "bundled" programming, most of which you will never watch. They tier programming offering "Basic Cable" gives you "ABSOLUTE SHIT", Tier One "PRETTY MUCH SHIT" and Tier Two "PREMIUM SHIT"!! There are almost 1000 channels of SHIT, 25 to 50% duplicated on other channels, 20 year old movies I have watched a dozen times, realty garbage, want-a-be TV personalities trying to be funny but seldom informative. Talk shows like Live With Kelly, The View, Ellen, etc. with little or no substance. Have you ever been to a Letterman Show? The worst part about the "free tickets" (because nobody would pay for them) is the pre show brain washing, where they herd you into this auditorium hours before taping, pumping bull shit up your crack, telling you to laugh at everything Dave says, whether you find it funny or not (and believe me, most of it was not funny), make lots of noise, clap & cheer like your going mad and when the "King" presents himself on stage and continue to laugh at everyone of his comments and corny jokes. What a sham and to think they are paying this guy 10's of $$$millions. I am sure the same bogus garbage holds true for most of these shows.
Well I for one am sick of it, paying premium dollar and not being able to chose what I want to watch. If I pay for TV, I want to chose what I want to watch, commercial free. I cannot wait for the day when everything you ever wanted to watch can be watched on my flat screen through via the internet. When cable companies and network television are ancient history. I turned off my car radio almost 3 years ago, preferring the peace and quiet over the radio personality that is trying to be funny or tell me about his recent experiences. I really don't give a dam! Who knows, maybe our TV will become a yard ornament if we do not have a viable option that provides true entertainment for all.
We have become a society that idolizes celebrities, why, I don't know. Most of them have been married multiple times, drug addiction, issues with the law, and these are the people we emulate? Not me! I really could give a crap and wouldn't walk across the street to greet most of them. There are millions of talented people out there I would prefer to watch. Hopefully the www. will soon give us that option before I have to turn off my TV for good! How shallow, materialistic & brain dead have we become as a society.
