But...but...there's nothing on broadcast TV, so you need more channels which also have nothing on them.
Yeah. "FOUR channels and still there's nothing on!!" Just doesn't have the same ring to it.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is even happening?
LOST, Alias, soon to be The Inside, Gilmore Girls, Joan of Arcadia, Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, and yes, even Charmed.
a) I was joking, hence the commie comment
2) Joan of Arcadia got canned. Hence me being bitter about the TV.
iii) Lost lost my interest. I was out a lot on Wednesdays, and missed too much. Chris deleted some episodes from the TiVo. We were never in the mood to watch what was there, and just gave up. Maybe we'll try it again, next season.
four) The Inside isn't on yet.
e) I miss Joan already.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I was joking
I know. It's good.

But, but, but!! It's a good show. Sulking now.

I live a big city. Over broadcast, I get 10 channels and that doesn't even count the Spanish and Polish stations.

Oh, well, I didn't know about the Polish stations. (That's people from Poland, not a channel devoted to shining silver, or shoes, or whatever, right?)

Thrive to spite them
I watch too much tv, I'll just sit there and watch crap I don't even really like because it's on.
When I move, I'm cutting back on what I get.
Currently I feel like I want to die -- I just started my period, I have cramps, I'm bitchy, I still haven't found my keys that went missing on Sunday. Instead of watching Lost I think I'm going to take some pain meds, hunt for my keys, and go to bed.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
At least the first season of Joan is out on DVD.
I don't get defensive when people get snooty and superior about not watching TV. I quickly go on the offensive and ask why they want to brag about being a media illiterate. "You might love books now, but you would've slagged Gutenberg to his face."
Then again I wrote a book about Bubblegum music and have mingled with music snobs so I'm quick to defend the populist aesthetic.

TiVo helps with this. ijs. Something you wanted to watch is usually waiting for you.
