I have a friend who'll say to smug no-TV people "Gee, that's a big chunk of the culture to be completely ignorant of."
I love her.

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thrive to spite them
I want Tivo. But right now to actually make it worth owning one I'd need to have a cable package that was more than the $10 cable package I'm getting will buy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm going to give up reading. Have you seen the crap out there? Pulp romance, schlocky sci fi, endless fantasy sagas - oh! and the violence! It's disgusting.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Pulp romance, schlocky sci fi, endless fantasy sagas - oh! and the violence!
and that's just in The Bible. Those other books are even worse!

Thrive to spite them
There's tons of stuff I'd be Tivoing right now -- Stargate SG1 And A, REscue Me, Mystery! (Which I always forget is on), BSG, Lost, Gilmore Girls, House, American Idol, a bunch of stuff on TCM and Discovery, but I don't have tivo.
If I wanted it bad enough I'm sure that I could find a way to get Tivo and a cable package that I think would make it worth my while.
On the other hand I have 425 dvds on my Netflix queue, most of which are tv shows, so I don't think I'll really be watching fewer tv programs, just not idly sitting there the home shopping network.

Because books.
Joan of Arcadia got canned
I am astounded by this! And I just got into it over the last couple of episodes, damn it.
And I got into it precisely because I heard such good things about it from someone who shall remain nameless.
Yes, I'm looking at you, Cindy. Hmmmpf.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
The one show I was still watching on a regular basis got renewed (Arrested Development), and another show I loved and lost came back from the dead (Family Guy).
This season, I only watched ONE show from start to finish. ONE. And it wasn't even a full season, thanks to Fox. I came dangerously close to having nothing new to watch for the first time in 15 years.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I think it's closer to All Babies Are Secretly Frat Boys.
She was cradled next to Naked Boobie, and therefore happily snoozing.
