Don't delude yourself that you would have something to watch ... if only you had cable!We have a satelllite [cable not available here]. Over the past decade there has been a steady decline in watchable "shows". Everything has become nasty and/or violent ... or just plain stupid and unwatchable. The only things we watch are Fox news at 6 p.m. and baseball games during the season. The rest of the time our TV is merely a conduit for the videos we watch ... and we are very selective there, as well ... most of what we watch is a decade or more old.

I've got one word for you: Mythbusters.
One of the few shows I've EVER seen that satisfies both the right and left hemispheres of the brain.
