Opinion piece: Is it just me or do you also felt TV these days are getting more boring

September 14th 2010 02:59
Ok, here is the question, is it just me or do you also felt TV these days are getting more and more boring.

I remeber there was a time where TV has a lot of shows, which I am interest in, but over the years the shows on TV has more and more become shows i am not interest in or put me asleep or totally make me felt like throwing up.

I always like sitcoms, but Australia TV seems to be airing lesser and lesser sitcoms and those which are still on air are usually reruns of Two and a half man, which despite been a great show, I am seen the exact same epsiode for god know how many times already.

Reality TV usually bord the crap out of me, especially the romantic ones. I know some people love reality TV show that is romantic, but for me it makes me fell asleep on the couch with bordem or throw up, for me just about any form of romantic TV program make me fell asleep, unless it is a comedy.

Channel ten has some variety shows, those are program that doesn't make me fell asleep watching it, but doesn't really draw my attention that much, it is stuff I watch when I really got nothing better to do, only.

Supernature and Charm in my opinion are great show, but we don't air too much episode of Supernature at Australia and Charm has been off air for ages.

South Park, is been played late at night and on digital channel only, Till Death is a sitcome air on channel 9 but it is also air 11;30 pm, I want to go to bed by then.

In my opinion commercial channels, has a fear of trying shows from none english speaking countries that in my opinion is stupid, because some of them would actually work quiet well in this country and commercial channel in this country very rarely air a program from a none engish speaking country.

So, is it just me or do you also find the TV program in this country getting more and more boring?

(Oh by the way, this is an opinion piece so it is my opinion only, please do not take it as facts.)

I'm not sure about Oz but Dexter Season 5 and Martin Scorsese's Boardwalk Empires are just about to start here in the U.S. Entourage Season 7, Hung Season 2 and True Blood Season 3 all just had finale.

I think Community starts a new season shortly. Breaking Bad, Justified and Mad Men, over here the problem is quantity of quality.

I think so too. I live in Sydney and the only TV shows I watch are Criminal Minds, news, rugby union and Today Tonight/Home and Away because it clashes with dinner time. I basically watch all my other favourite shows online!

Hi John: I guess you are lucky you live in the US so the TV is still good.

Seth and Lily: I guess I am not the only one that think the TV in this country is getting boring, they should really try buying program that would work in this country even if they are not from an English speaking country. Maybe I am been prejudice, but to my knowledge most of the people who run commercial TV channel in this country are conservatives, so I think they would be reluctant to air program from none English speaking country, especially none wetern country too often.
