Thread Name: US TV, Books, & Films - what they say about us
Subject: RE: US TV, Books, & Films - what they say about us
*Agree*, Donuel. Even Herself now goes straight past The Alleged Housewives of Greater Bitchington when she's channel-surfing on Freeview, complaining all the while about there being 57 channels and nothin' on.
Meanwhile, methunk shopping channels and pr0n must be the cheapest space-fillers because there's so damn many of them. It's getting worse .... but then perhaps it always did, as istr complaints of the same form about the yoof of the day in ancient Rome. Mebbe what it all says about us is that there's too few of us who aren't content to put up with enshittification (or even notice it), and who try to fight the blingocracy.
Ach, Nick the Greek had it right: "All of life is six-to-five against."
