What the hell is with the networks lately? They're either clueless or literally run by a bunch of idiots. And not just one of the networks, all of them!
Here's what I mean:
ABC: They've been pissing me and countless millions of other viewers off for the past few years, actually, with their split-season bullshit. They hook you on a popular show and then, in mid-season, stop airing it until the next year. And they do this with shows that are filled with suspense and mystery hoping you are an exceptionally severe nerd, marking off the days on your basement-apartment wall calendar with a drool-slicked crayon, fervently masturbating to your poster of the pixie-like Anna from "V".
CBS: Well they've always been screwed up. But recently it seems they've just given up altogether on any original programming choosing to rely almost exclusively on reality shows. All of which are a variation of a sort of "Survivor". I think they've voted themselves off the island long ago.
FOX: Once the upstart wannabe, now clings on to the two wildly different audiences propelling them upward past the others: pot smoking, zit-faced, emo teens crazily voting for their favorite American Idols and thick-headed, Jesus-lovin', flag wavin', radical Republicans dreaming of lynching the President and barebacking a falling bomb, ala Slim Pickens in "Strangelove", as it drops on any Muslim city. Now they added Sarah Palin to their roundup of prime-time loonies. "I can see Russia from my backyard!"
NBC: So now after they decide to stir up the late-night mix a few months ago, they go and really threaten to spoil the whole shebang. Leno at 10, no, now Leno at 11:35. But Conan would have to move. Well he doesn't want to. What about Jimmy Fallon? He'll do whatever he's told. And Carson Daly? Oh, is he still on? Oh well, drop him. I guess only the three people who watch him will be upset.
Remember this...
Seems like some things never change.
