I can eat a big breakfast and crap better material than these hackneyed dolts produce. That they get paid at all for their dreck is a crime.

Strike. Please. But only for the next decade or so ...

There is some very good writing out there these days. Sure, some series are poorly written, but there are some wonderful gems.

It’s hard to put into words exactly, but I get the idea, that TV shows of the past were written better, with more intelligent storylines, better plots, more character development, etc.

Compare the comedy of a show such as I Love Lucy, with sitcoms today in which the comedy revolves around smart mouth kids, or some character who is gay, or some zany character whose job it is to spout one liners that are supposed to make us all laugh. There’s a world of difference, in my opinion, in the shows today and shows of the past.
