Television - "A Vast Wasteland."
I am sooooo glad I have Satellite TV. I have 200 channels of video to select from (plus numerous digital music channels as well). This means I don't have to watch much of the garbage foisted upon us by "The Networks."
I can make intelligent viewing choices from sources like Discovery, History, A&E, USA and the Sci-Fi channel. I don't have to watch "Kid Nation" "Notes from the Underbelly" Entertainment Tonight" "The Bachelor" "Biggest Loser" and the like.
And every time I find an intelligent and entertaining show, it is cancelled. Probably because it isn't fodder for the mindless masses.
Thank goodness, I also have lots of reading material and good music.
This is a forum where I make random comments about my journey in life, rants, raves, opinions and observations. Why the name "Always-A-Comment." Because I always have a comment about everything. Created by Mike Hale, a "Cranky Old Guy" in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The opinions expressed herein are mine and mine alone, no offense intended.
