My sweetie and I have a subscription to TV Guide. As far as I can tell, we have this because back in the Dark Ages before good shows were available on DVD, television stations actually had to show worthwhile things, and there was some value in knowing what was on at any given point in time. By now, it has just become habit to keep looking at the darn things in futile hope.

I have wasted far too much of this evening reviewing their annual 'New Fall Shows' issue. Having looked at the entire spectrum of offerings, I can state with certainty that this year tv viewers will certainly be getting the pick of the litter when it comes to new shows. Unfortunately, the litter has been used by a geriatric cat with intestinal distress.

NetFlix, here I come....

Bleagh!

(This may have something to do with why I watch very little TV, and what I do watch is likely to be either the Food Channel or Discovery or TLC.)

Great metaphor! Mind if I port that over to [livejournal.com profile] metaquotes?

Sure! Thanks... :)

i'm seriously considering just canceling cable, it's gotten so distressing.

Normally I loathe TV, but I'm completely hooked on Rescue Me.

Things like this make me so glad I don't own a tv, and don't watch the tv I don't own. :)

I almost never watch TV these days... the last show I followed regularly was MacGyver. Ours mostly gets used when [livejournal.com profile] sdavido wants to watch one of his DVDs.
