Here’s the problem as I see it. Who the hell watches all this TV garbage? I read viewership is down, which might mean that program ratings do not indicate vast audiences, as in the past.
We are in a time when the TELEVISION SETS get better and better by the year, while the TELEVISION programs get worse and worse by the week.
“Dumbed Down” shows attract “Dumbed Down” viewers, thus the base of the (you know who).

I watched about 10 minutes of it once back in the 70s and never tuned in again. Don’t find it funny or the least bit entertaining.

It’s horrifyingly disgusting how many millions “the arts” gets. Taxpayers are struggling trying to keep a roof over their heads while their taxes are poo-pooed away.

Texas, under Gov. Goodhair Perry, gave the Bravo Channel $$$$ out of the tourism fund for them to film a season of “Top Chef” here. Name one person who brought their family to vacation in Texas because of that show. The day that news came out was the day the channel was banned in this house. Sure, they get my money through the cable bill but no ratings.

Amen to that!

True. When “movie stars” were being called to “testify” before Congress, I knew we were in big trouble.

The whole thing has become one bit propaganda outlet. The MSM, Hollyweird pushing leftist agendas nonstop. Commercials, too, push and push agendas.
