There's so many to choose from... Over here we are deluged with American sitcoms that are all basically the same. Fat, dopey, blue collar husband, with a somewhat attractive wife (way out of his league), and a zaney crazy neighbour. Lowest common denominator toilet humour, with a constant laugh track. Same format, same script, same characters, different names and actors.

Just about every vocation now has its own tv show. Towing, reposession, house flipping, cake decorating, tattooing, scavagers, truckers, exterminators, house painters, pawn brokers, parking enforcement, auction wars, gun dealers, wedding this, wedding that, wedding the other... all we need now is extreme accounting to round out the set.

Apart from the news and the weather (which are both crap most of the time), I don't bother with television anymore.

I'm with the hatred of reality TV, the funny thing is these days they are so setup you can't call them reality shows anymore. Operation repo is hilariously bad, it even says at the beginning that its staged...yet people still watch it wtf? :?

I mainly watch DVDs/Streamed stuff now as I'm sick of reality TV, but it's cheap to make and people still watch it in high numbers so they will keep making it.

It's all staged, some of them are so obvious. I do like American Chopper/Hotrod as love to see the bikes/cars they build but even they are so setup!!

I didnt believe anything could be worse, or more depressing, than the soaps that take over evening terrestrial tv.
That all changed a few years ago when an ex got me watching a film called "Mega Snake".
Some films are so bad that they become funny.... this was oh so much worse!
