in other words...they had an hour of free airtime

what has happened to television? there used to be shows with writers and actors. now, there are reality and "talent" shows. reality shows are shows set in reality with guided scripted, easy ways around paying talent properly because the shows are technically not scripted. we see adults who are encouraged to act like feral children.

talent shows are really freak shows. tonight's fare including some fool putting hooks in his eyes and a contender for a darwin award who jumped from a 30ft platform into a pool with 12in of water.

this leaves me wondering...where is nero playing his fiddle and how long will it take for rome to burn?
