TV: Tragically Vitiating
Thursday, February 2nd, 2006I haven’t really watched TV for weeks. The only TV shows I’ve watched have been on DVD or downloaded, commercial free. The only exception is Babblebar Balabiba. But Marlo and I were at the Laundromat and they (hey…the spell check just capitalized Laundromat on me) were showing Access Hollywood followed by E Entertainment News or some other E-tainment show. Now, I enjoy films when they’re done well, and actors who are good at their craft are definitely worth recognizing, but gosh golly gee whiz – I sure don’t care who’s wearing what and who’s pregnant with whose baby and how much glitter is in a celebrity’s poop. Holy cats what a vulgar pageantry of tanned glam. But the commercials! I remember why I hate TV. They really have to do something about that. When I move, there will be no cable TV. There will just be downloading and purchasing DVD sets after a season or series is done airing on the idiot box. And maybe some day – TiVo.
