Denial
I thought the biggest group in denial were the dwarves running for president on the Democratic side of the fence.
But we have a new ostrich herd. Are ostriches a herd? Coven? Gaggle? Whatever.
TV executives are in denial that they are losing droves of viewers. Amongst the excuses;
Nielsen is using the wrong people.
Nielsen isn't measuring people with dishes which are high tv usage folks.
Here's a thought.
YOUR SHOWS SUCK!!!!!!
Ratings are down because there's nothing to watch. Granted I've been busy with baseball until last week. But I don't know of any show I'd watch. I gave up Friends a couple years ago. For the first time since I watched the Brady Bunch at age 7, I don't have a comedy I watch religiously.
And I was an NBC thursday guy all the way back before Cosby showed up on the network. I was watching Family Ties and Cheers in 82 or 83. Whenever they started.
Stop giving us the Bachelor and go make a new Seinfeld, Cheers or Cosby. Duh.
In the meantime the 22 yr olds will drink beer and play Play Station in lieu of your garbage.
Carry on.
