Years ago TV was free, less channels but better programs.They said if ever in the future you WANTED to pay for TV,it would be commercial free. Now you pay for TV with12 minutes of commercials every 30 minutes…
I do not pay for TV. That is because I do not watch TV. When the ratio of watchable stuff to junk reached about 1 to 1000, I decided it was time to pull the plug. No cable service at our apartment, no antennae, no satellite dish, just blessed quiet from the box. Yes, I have a TV and do watching a streaming movie once in a great while but that is about it.
actually, a lot of the Old cartoons and serials will not be seen ever again due to zealots like Crosby buying up the rights and burying them, rather than let any racially slanted humor from 80 years ago slip by. or theyve been edited into insensibility by the same type of cretins. for instance, the blackface minstrels in the bugs bunny Dixie cartoon. never see em sing it ever again!
This is going WAY back, and I just barely remember it myself, but anybody out there remember “Amos and Andy”. I guess I must have seen the re-runs in sydication because it went off the air before I was born.

Some shows should never air and some shows that are great have been taken off air. New shows coming up should not go on TV.

Whether he’s allowed to say it or not, he’s right.
