And this is the reason that I refuse to watch a LOT of the dreck on TV. Glee has become such a Hollyweird agenda program that, in spite of the great music they do, I simply won't watch.
TV has hit rock bottom in the quality of its programming and has started to dig.
As a result, I would rather watch old TV shows, old movies, or just read a book. I can (and have) live without TV and, given its current state of dreck, prefer to leave it turned off.
The crap that network/cable feeds to the unwashed masses is so despicable that four years ago (when my boy went off to college) I did not hesitate to cancel my subscription to cable, and to give my hi-res flatscreens to neighbors.
I haven’t ever regretted it, but now I am thinking it might be worth the cost to see Øbamatollah’s concession speech...
