most of you know i watch my shows either on torrents or
hulu.com. part of this being because i got tired of the Comcast idea of "fair pricing."
but anyway....there is this newer show out, called "accidentally on purpose"....and with a name like that, how could it go wrong? plus, as i started watching, noted one of my fav sitcom actresses was on it.....the one from that show where she played a hippie....darma something?
so i'm sitting here, thinking it's going to be at least semi-entertaining......yet the show i watched from this last week, totally revolved around the subject of "boobs." i mean....common.....how retarded ARE these writers? halfway through the show, i found myself yelling at the screen YES, WE KNOW WOMEN GET BIG BOOBS WHEN THEY'RE PREGNANT!!!!! oh, and they get more horny?.....yes, we know that too. and then they portray the men in it as one step below mentally challenged frat boys......
and i'm listening to the laugh track, telling me when something should be funny. and so far, haven't heard a darn thing witty enough to make me crack a smile. and the SCARY thing is.....the show is apparently into its second season. how the hell did it manage that? with writers that obviously must have done a little too much coke in college.....
and not to be a drama queen....but HOW much have we dumbed down the public in the last few decades or so? when the sitcoms hinge on about a 2nd grade, or 7 year old, comprehension level....while at the same time being ADULT content? who in god's name do they expect to watch it....a target audience of perverted 7 year olds?.....and the new dramas like stargate universe, incorporate all this strange back and forth in a plot, because apparently viewers no longer have enough of an attention span to follow a story from point A to point B.
now it's not like i have a right to complain.....hell, am not even paying for cable. but it sure as shit makes you wonder.....where did we go?
