A brutally honest assessment of what television is.

How much hatred and horrible behaviour have we absorbed?? None of us really have any control..Turn off your TV,its there to ruin your mind.

They have so much power with this digital stuff,if you really were aware of it,it would blow you away!

Youtube will ruin your brain before TV does.

Why come to a TV forum and tell people not to watch TV? It's like going to a religion forum and preaching atheism.

Thank you. Makes no sense. Or going to church every Sunday, playing the “goodie goodie” two shoes, when you’re on the streets, doing wrong as soon as church lets out.

Digital TV is not going to ruin your mind or mess with you mentally. There is nothing wrong with digital TV...

I did my share of TV but it was in between 40 yrs of working. Never, thank goodness, went to those soaps, mom watched a couple in her life...she was a housewife mostly. I've decided to unplug mine 4-5 yrs, cable company messed up my billing, so I told them to take their black box. Longer I stay away, the less I miss it. And I'm probably keeping $70 or more a month in my bank account.

TV is somewhat messed up, I gotta concede that to ya.

Just the other night I was watching the movie Alien, and they thought it was just fine showing some creature shove it's ovipositor down some guy's throat and impregnating him with it's embryo, yet scarcely 90 minutes later they were adding smudge effects to the screen to obscure Sigourney Weaver's form-fitting undies. Definite conspiracy




I mean, c'mon, we all know what's going on here

Hollywood is making some of the highest-quality shows it ever has. But please go on about how it's turning us into sheep or something. The only thing doing that is Fox News.

Co-signed. I adore a lot of classic TV, but TV has never been better than it is now.
