Don’t you think it’s time to STOP WATCHING T.V.?

Here’s why:

- TV makes people SICK!!
- TV enslaves you and Saps all your creative energy!
- TV hooks you like DRUGS!
- TV is obviously a “Vast Wasteland.” (This is common knowledge)
- TV is just plain BAD for you physically, mentally, and spiritually.
- Watching it will cause you great unhappiness in life and you’re more than likely to get CANCER or some other weird disease!!

If you absolutely must have your media injection, why not just read a good book?

(from: R.Crumb, Zap Comix, 1968)

I run 7 miles every other night and still can't get enough TV.

Your arguments are false, specious, lame and frankly, full of poo poo.

You're absolutely right, Cana! But there are still some good cinema classics which is why this idiot keeps his idiot box!

We have FIOS cable which means hundreds of channels of rubbish. I can not wait for football to start, and then hockey..AAAH!

TV is great....it’s the programming that sucks. The old B&W films are great. One has to really pay attention to the fast pace dialogs....that in of itself tunes the viewer into the acting and the directing as well as the script; much different than the constant deception of special affects.

I watch very little TV and then I watch mostly the Discovery channel and the History channel. And Battlestar Galactica and 24. But I do like movies and would like a nice TV to watch them on.
