^^^ Three words: EVERYBODY . LOVES . RAYMOND .

Or as I would like to call it, Everybody Hates Raymond. I despise that show. One of the few & only recent sitcoms that is the typical "Men looking like spineless blubbering idiots who's balls are carried around in the purse of their wife/girlfriend", & is actually quite good is The King of Queens. It finished in may after a 9 season run but it was actually good & Doug wasn't always the one getting the "Balls in purse", Carrie got her fair share of shit flown her way by Doug.

I'd much rather watch a good sitcom or drama than a good reality show. But a bad sitcom is the worst, because it can't be so bad it's funny. It just isn't.

The choice should be: "Procedural melodramas." It's the same garbage.

I do not believe most of the people who fashionably voted "Reality TV." I put that right up there with the polls that show 95% of people never look at porn.

I also heartily second those who hate the local news. Network news is just as worthless, but on a national level.
