Before anyone points this out, yes, I know all of the things I mention here are pretty old already. Being totally up to date isn't the point of this, so just try to let that slide. I hope you enjoy the read.

Television is Way Too Inappropriate

TV scares me. It really does. You see some things there that are so far out of what I know and am comfortable with. They bring up some awful and gross things. And they do it so light heartedly.

For example, I was watching one particular show the other day, not this day, the other one, and it involved a man with some clear mental issues being shouted at by children. They were forcing him to dress up a certain way but he simply lacked the mental faculty to understand what he was supposed to do. And they made no big deal of it as if it were perfectly fine and normal. I really felt sorry for Mr Noodle on Elmo's World.

There was a very odd movie on recently. It was set in some fictional place where everyone drank from a river that very obviously had had some strange agent introduced to it. It followed a series of uh... "colorful" characters trying to get back a big "diamond" from high up in the sky so that Spring would return and everyone could go on being made "happy" by the diamond. I don't know what they're putting in that water to make everyone feel happy and imaginative, but I think don't think Rainbow Brite only flies high on her horse, I'll tell you that much.

Seriously, TV these days is totally inappropriate for kids. One show even had this guy kicked out of his home by some stranger who then started living in the guy's house, wearing his clothes, and obviously taking some sort of mood altering drugs; the guy was unusually happy and energetic, and thought his dog and inanimate objects around the house were talking to him! I never liked Joe on Blue's Clues.

I really hope things turn around for television soon and we get some wholesome programming for the family to enjoy together. Like that show called Breaking Bad. I've never seen it myself, but with a name like that, what else could it be other than a show where they combat the forces of evil? Thanks for reading.
