TV in general has gone to ...Totally agree with Ian. TV in general has gone to the crapper. I don't really blame America though, I blame cable. There are SO MANY DAMN CHANNELS that they literally have to make shit up to put on the air. Every once in a while, something unusual becomes a hit. <br /><br />Think of such "pioneers" as The Real World, Survivor, Deadliest Catch, Pawn Stars, Swamp People etc. Each one of this became a huge hit, and each spawned countless imitators. I'm sure the good folks at Duck Dynasty are great and really funny, but WHY DO I WANT TO WATCH OTHER PEOPLE LIVE THEIR "CONTRIVED" LIVES ON TV? I have my own life to live. Maybe most of America just hates their own life?<br /><br />One thing I will say though. There actually are a TON of excellent shows on TV, mostly on the highbrow cable networks and pay networks. Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, Dexter, Breaking Bad, Mad Men... These shows NEVER would have been on standard network TV. Cable has created a place for them, and they are no holds barred awesome. <br /><br />In fact, there are just too many good shows for me to watch. So I constantly have to tell people who recommend stuff that I just don't have time to watch everything. I watch about 5 shows, and 2 of them are summer series. I have been seriously considering starting on Breaking Bad. I have been told by more than one person it is the best show ever.
