Ah yes, I'm sure you yearn for the days of "My Two Dads", "Falcon Crest", "Alf", "Silver Spoons", "Mr. Washington" (the one with the chimp), etc., etc.
Back in the good 'ol days the scripting was solid as a rock and the actors were masters of their craft.
T.V. has always, and will always suck.
I don't know about that. How do you feel about shows like Andy Griffith, Little House On The Prairie, McHale's Navy, Redd Skelton Show, Sanford and Son, Lucy, The Jack Benny Show, Ed Sullivan, Get Smart, Gun Smoke, Wonderful World of Disney... etc.
Those were the shows that the whole family could sit down and watch. Everyone in the house enjoyed them. No filthy words needed to be bleeped out every 3 seconds, no story lines involving teen sex, drugs freaks on parade, gay marriage, ...etc.
T.V. hasn't always sucked but it does now. If it wasn't for my wife I'd do away with cable all together and just buy the old shows on disc and watch then instead. I may do that anyway. She can get her crap American Idol off of one of the computers.
The money I'd save on the cable bill, I could buy a nice hide-a-bed and sleep in the den when she gets to raggin' on me about no cable.
