The Five is newz targeted for females and morons of both sexes. Their ideal viewer is a female moron.

Put away the bottle, and go to bed.
Cilla Black just passed away last year. Here is her first number one hit, from 1964, the Bacharach-David song “Anyone who had a Heart”:
Several years ago there was a writer-s strike. This was the beginning of reality TV, which in theory did not require a writer. The writer-s guild -won.-, keeping prices outrageously high and imposing onerous requirements on the users of their services. They also raised the bar to entry for new writers ensuring the guild-s eventual extinction. The reason we no longer have variety shows like Carol Burnette is nobody can afford them. The Writer-s Guild has destroyed TV and itself.
For fifty-two years, until September 2015, the spirit of the Ed Sullivan Show came alive every Saturday night via Sábado Gigante – Gigantic Saturday. Created and hosted since 1963 by Mario Luis Kreutzberger Blumenfeld, AKA Don Francisco, Sábado Gigante was a time warp of sorts in that it provided a stage for a Sullivan Show cross section of Latin talent. Even many commercials were presented product in-hand in a live 50’s manner. And like Sullivan, Don Francisco provided a first break for many Latin performers. Perhaps using taped segments in later years, Sábado Gigante was produced with a live and very much participatory audience.
Ah yes, those were the good old DECENT days!
More and more talent shows would be great! Musicians, singers, dancers.
If the inane chit-chat were ditched, the tube would be mostly silent. (which might be a blessing)
Raleigh, NC has a channel called MeTV that plays the old shows that makes you laugh or smile at real humor not the hate filled, nasty stuff that is called humor today. Great to see something positive.

I miss the good old days when you had Captain Kangaroo, Match game, Dialing for Dollars movie on during the day. And of my grandmother had her stories
