Television Addicts Rejoice!

Now that the Writer's Strike has finally ended, I can get back to my mind-numbing routine of watching Chuck, Heroes, The Office, and Smallville. Man, I missed these guys! I am still upset that the networks managed to function for so long. . .I blame the epidemic of reality tv shows. Seriously, Big Brother 9?!?!? Who watches this, other than voyeurs? Besides, the whole point of watching television is to escape reality and not to watch an artificial, carefully constructed version of reality. In essence, we are watching people watch each other. And then whine about it later on camera. This stale, suffocating decadence will cause the downfall of society. And that's my rant. I need to go back to writing a paper.

I was just starting to enjoy my life outside of televised programming too. Oh well.

I'm really excited for The Office to come back! I like some mind-numbing entertainment on Thursdays :)
