Left the TV on while working on the computer tonight.
I was distracted by some drama called "Mile High". Unfortunately aircraft and sex didn't show in it much.

Lieutenant George: How do you mean, sir? Do you mean, take her home at the week-end to meet your mother?
Lord Flasheart: No! I mean get inside her five times a day and take her to heaven and back!

It's good to know that we here in Oz aren't the only ones who have to put up with sh*t on TV. I personally watch very little tv, infact only the news and once in awhile a decent doco or movie. My wife on the other hand, loves all that Judge Judy, biggest loser, Australian Idol reality tv bullsh*t. I can't stand it! If I had my way, the networks would be showing repeats of the oldschool greats such as Get Smart, Hogan's Heroes etc which I believe are superior to the crap we get to choose from today.
I'm sitting here watching "The Untouchables" (1963). A series that was taken off in the sixties because of violence.
I agree the amount of crap on tv is unbelievable, I think they will eventually make a reality show for every concievable situation.
All I can say is thank goodness for History Channel, Military Channel, and Blockbuster Online!
Even the weather channel hardly shows current weather, everytime I flip over you have to wait thru another disaster show, their comments on global warming or some other crap.
What is all that "Idol" thing about...it seems like the issue is American and Australian...
Is it kind of a "Big Brother" tpye of crap? There you have another one...it seems to me there was a time when TV was the exclusive domain of the "famous" or "noted" ones...news comentators, show hosts, singers and actors...today, it seems like every punk, low-life and low-budget tramp are entitled to have their 15 minutes of fame so they can show the entire nation their endless virtues, good manners and vast knowledge.
I do not have a TV set in my place here -do not need it though-; there is barely enough space for myself to fit in by the way. I call this place the mackerel can.
I'm actually looking forward to the Anna Nicole Smith re-runs soon, they are sure to be a hit .............. blllllllllltttt ~
Rip it up !
I wonder if we polled everyone if they would cop to how many TVs exist in their homes. Me? Only 1.

American Idol is not just limited to the US. That show is reproduced all over the world. There is even a German version of it (exactly like the US show just here in Germany) called Deutschland Sucht Den Superstar.
Hell there is even a Military Idol on the military post that I work on.

Same here. Only 1. I do however have a second TV that I bought when I was in the Army to take with me when I went to Iraq.

You know we are not in the ordinary, Adler. In the US, average number is 2.4 per household.

Why? Dont need that many TV's! That just shows how lazy the future generations are becoming. I would much rather spend time with the family outside doing things together or with friends than watching TV.
The only time you will see me glued to my TV is on Sundays during the Football season.

with as much sleeze ball wanna be porno crap on the TV and my grand-daughters coming over at a moments notice, I don't need that crap on or even in my house. We find the tele good for a historical movie now and then and that is about it .............
ya gotta be tough to live in the West
Rip it up !
Agree we had some lady shove a bottle up her vagina on Big Brother.Her mother must be so proud.
Also had relavations about rip off premium rate phone in TV competitions that are rigged or bungled.
Going digital will give us more channels/more crap/less choice. To cap it all after having the politicians preach to us about the enviroment digital TV's/radios require more power to the old analogue version(The same amount of power required for 60mins listening on an analogue radio would last only 3mins using digital)
