Television:
I PREFER REALITY TO REALITY TELEVISION. in college studying film/video i learned you use less brainwaves while watching television than you do while sleeping. so i prefer sleep to television. back in the day when i was into it i watched things like quantam leap, you can't do that on television, punky brewster, the polka dot door, today's special, kids in the hall, monty python, invader zim, saturday nite live, south park ,whose line is it anyway?
I did just get the Dick Van Dyke DVD boxed set and I LOVE how well it was written, I wish TV today was as good, not that i'm a very good judge because i gave on on TV a long time ago! I do like Dave Chappelle's show.
