TV Sucks! Long Live TV!
by D.J. Kirkbride

TV's are good for one thing, and it ain't watching your favorite shows anymore because, you know, TV shows pretty much all suck. Unless you have HBO. I'm all the time reading about and hearing about good shows on that damn pay channel all the damn time. But it's too damn expensive! DAMN!
 
As far as broadcast (free) TV goes, it's all "reality" horse pussy like people eating poop or faking love (aka, whoring) for money-awful dreck; or shit-ass sitcoms that are either totally white-washed or modern day minstrel shows with the canned laughter of dead people after every unfunny "joke"; or hour-long spin offs of spin offs of spin offs... of spin offs-poop on all that  crap.
 
Aside for the increasingly rare good (i.e., perpetually on the verge of cancellation) programs like Arrested Development, all TV is good for nowadays is playing DVDs. Seriously. Ask yourselves this, m'friends: what show currently on the air is as good as your copy of movies like The Royal Tennenbaums or Donnie Darko? Or even your DVD collections of unfairly cancelled shows (occasionally, good ones do pop up here and there) like that live action The Tick show with Puddy from Seinfeld (another good program that's now on DVD) or Invader Zim? Poop on the current crop of TV shows and pop in the DVDs! 'Cause TV's play DVDs just fine!
