how do I hate television...
So... I'm paging through all the crap on Netflix, and this picture keeps popping up:
![[Image: 7E0A4590-EF4C-4D33-BC05-73A312C3E492-294...D0B5D6.jpg]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/ellenjanuary/7E0A4590-EF4C-4D33-BC05-73A312C3E492-294-000001517BD0B5D6.jpg) And I'm like ambivalent. Yeah, she's gorgeous, but ABC Family? Eventually the gorgeous bit won out and I checked it... and it's so totally Buffy! I watch seven episodes yesterday and today, then what happens? Find out it got cancelled.  Fuck TV. And ABC Family. And especially Disney, which is just made of suck.

RE: how do I hate television...
My thoughts are usually like this: "If I like it, it's going to be cancelled." Time after time. Stargate Universe, Defying Gravity, Frisky Dingo, Outcasts, Survivors...pretty much everything.

how do I hate television...
Let me count the ways. So much crap. 20 years from now, there will be no such thing. Everything we watch will be on-line, hooked up to large screens. All productions will be available in a cafeteria of single choices. No more cable packages. TV will either adapt, or go the way of the land-line telephone companies. Insufferable know-it-all.

RE: how do I hate television...
I stopped watching TV ages ago just because it seemed like everything I liked got cancelled. The last thing I cared about, really, was Fringe. This is its last season. Meh...

RE: how do I hate television...
I don't actually have television - I see stuff from DVD or internet.
Just see Qi. - I see it at quite1nteresting channel on YouTube - He even got the pilot somehow. You can watch all the back ones from A through I - that should take a while. Then, you'll have 17 years more to go.  The only US show I have left that I watch is Weeds. I'm ok with it being done now... but I guess it's still going strong. I still haven't seen last season yet. I just finished the last bit of House ... which I'll miss, but all good things must end.

Yup, me too. There is a television in the apartment but only used by the girls for "keep fit" dvds.
That, my friends, is worth watching! ... and filming. |

When I moved upstairs, there was a TV in my room. And it went out to the curb, first day. Idiot box.  The OP was more about TV programming than hardware, but I am hardly concerned with derailment of my threads. I'm more of a barking dog. I only got three more Chloes left, aroooOOO!

You know how I know there's no god?
Because shows like here comes honey boo boo get bigger hits than the mars rover launch coverage. |
