TV is King article by Mike Liebner
Ya know... I think I just figured out
why I have come to rely on Reality TV Shows
for entertainment when I need it... because
they do NOT show repeats!
Reality TV Shows and a few well respected
regular tv shows (Fox TV's 24) do not interrupt
the flow of the season by interjecting
stale old repeats.
Repeats are an insult on our intelligence.
Maybe during mid season a reality tv show
like Amazing Race will do a "catch up" show
but they're usually good shows because
they show clips they hadn't shown before.
It's not technically a repeat.
So what are we gonna do about it? Am I
the only one that is perturbed that Lost
got me all riled up with killing off Boone
and then they go and follow for weeks with
REPEATS.
That sucks. Maybe that is why ABC has
been such a loser. They do the predictable
cash in pocket tactics when they could
be riding the acclaim and satisfying the
new viewers they have earned with NEW fresh
episodes.
But NO! They repeat us to death.
Further eveidence is the upcoming repeats
for LOST and Desperate Housewives and the "catch
up" show.
Well... enough of that. I just wish I
would hear some other folks make a stink
about it. I haven't ever heard dissent
on this phenomenom.
C'mon people. Let's shout it out...
I'm angry as hell and I'm not going to
take it anymore!
Lost
Desperate Housewives |
