As a semi-geezer, I'm impressed with the taste exhibited by the wide range of ages posting herein. I agree with all of you. It makes me wonder just WHO watches the wretched crap posing as entertainment on their 62 inch wall-hog, & their 2 inch cell phone whilst tailgating me.
About 38 years ago, after returning to the states from a non-voluntary military hiatus of 3 years & no stateside TV to follow, I remember a watching show hosted by a certifiable schizoid by the name of Joe Pyne. Why legitimate guests showed up to be roasted by this wacko, eluded me (Oh, yeah.....money) Anyway, I decided that the civilization from with I had briefly exited, had gone mad, & the end was nigh. On the other hand I also followed a show called "The Courtship of Eddie's Father", starring the late Bill Bixby, & was temporarily soothed & relived that perhaps civility, good taste, & maturity was still an underlying trait of most Americans. Oh well, all good things must pass, & we've arrived at the current state of affairs. Maybe it's why I spend too much time banging on this dam' keyboard.
Oh....I did watch what I consider to be a "good" series tonight. "Friday Night Lights". There - that puts the curse of cancellation in action for a repeat season. Sorry.
