18 Jan Reality….. TV or Life!
So I am back in the UK and whilst nursing a headache I decided to catch up on my tv viewing last night as for the last 4 weeks, I have been surviving without Sky….. and even worse no Sky + ( TIVO ) .
So I was excited to see what the UK had to offer or what I have missed during my absence…….
So why is my TV more like a reality show, every single channel you turn to there is a reality show that the programmers feels that we must watch!
When did the UK became like the US?
When did the lives of others intrigued us so much that we would spend our entire day or waking moment watching the antics of others?
Ok dont get me wrong , I am fond of some reality shows and I do follow one particular religiously- ANTM, but I like the choice of choosing when I watch this programme rather that it forced at me.
But to switch on my TV and see shows about other peoples who put their lives on TV or subject themselves for their 15 minutes of fame, its too much!
I understand that people will do what they feel best is for them, however, when the tv channels feels that we should all be watching the life of others whilst ours go by and forcing this on us then I have an issue…..
I really dont need to pay TV licence a year to watch other people live their life…. I have neighbours for that and they are interesting enough without it being filmed.
Pretty soon I wont feel the need for a TV and it may be another useless item in the future!
Until da Next Tymje!
