network television

cable television is a luxury i can not afford at this time. and i think that it is better that i don't have it. i would probably end up sitting in front of it for too long, wasting too much time on my uncomfortable couch. i already waste large amounts of time in front of the tv (especially these last two weeks).

day time television is the hardest to watch. it's mostly obnoxious talk shows or soap operas, but there is always something to watch. unless you don't like news there are few times in the day that you can't find anything to put you to sleep or capture your interest.

late night television is probably the hardest to watch. there are very few shows on. it is mostly infommercials for windsor pilates or how to sell real estate or day trading. i'll usually tune into PBS at this time since they have the most interesting programs.

charlie rose is usually pretty interesting. his interviews are smart and fair. the man on after him, tavis smiley, can be pretty good in his own respect. i initially started watching tavis smiley because i thought his name was funny. but then i noticed he usually had on good guests and gave good interviews. now i'll watch him and the other quality programming on PBS when i'm up late.
