Tired of Politics!!
So last night was a wash out for me. Local debates were aired in lieu of normal programming - so that meant no Cold Case. Plus football delayed things, so shows started late anyway. I never lasted to see Without A Trace and it was my son’s birthday so using the DVD recorder for the night was out of the question, he only gets a birthday once a year so I’m not going to fight him on that!
Hopefully, at some point, the Cold Case’s I have missed will be reaired. That’s two now that politics have overruled. I’m tired of it! I want the elections to be over already!

Hey there,
I know how important television is. Hell, I’m a baby boomer! I was weaned on the stuff!
But before TV, there was politics, and I am sorry modern television is 1) Not as entertaining, 2) Not as creative, and 3) Not as meaningful, when it comes to politics, as compared to a really fine drama.
I watch some of the same programs you do, and I feel your pain. But I also live in the same country, too, and I’d bear the sacrifice… If only somebody would use the power of TV for our collective good!
On the bright side, TV may give you a headache sometimes, but it can be good for a cold! Become well;-)

However, these debates have already aired on a different station. They could be placed on public television or the local “government” channel, after all we are paying for a local government channel so they may as well use it for these debates instead of airing old town meetings. They do not need to take up other channels multiple nights a week, so I still stand by my view that I’m tired of the politics.
