I've been thinking more and more lately how television shows are just not what they used to be. I know, I know I sound like a crabby old lady! But it's true! There really isn't a whole lot of variety on t.v. anymore. I usually end up watching an old rerun of show that used to be good. I am tired of reality shows even though there are a few I still can't resist!
I think there are too many reality shows and they all seem to dish out the same crap show after show. It's all about the drama, the drinking, the fighting, and who's doing who! I miss the days of good shows like West Wing, That 70's Show, Malcom In the Middle etc.. (All of these shows are syndicated and I catch them here and there to get away from so-called "Reality".
I don't really believe they should call it "Reality" when it is actually "Scripted". I know they don't just capture a scene once and move on. They make the people on the show do it again and again to get just the right moment on film!
I think "Reality" shows for the most part are a waste of time! However, I have a few I still do catch when I can (Top Chef, Project Runway, and the Tim Gunn Show). Other than that I really try to stay away from the train wreck they call entertainment.
I really do hope one day that t.v. executives do find some good television they can broadcast so that we can actually enjoy some entertainment instead of think what the hell!?!
Do you enjoy television today? Can you remember the last time you really liked the show you were watching or was it just a vegging out time?
Enough for today!
