We're turning off the telly for time in the sun

The Advertiser: We're turning off the telly for time in the sun :

While the lack of quality TV invariably affects silly season viewing levels, so, too, do the warmer days with viewers opting to stay outdoors."

Say what you like but most of us have stopped watching tele because there is nothing with any meat in it. It's all very facile and bland. We enjoyed the Glass House. We liked Spicks and Specks, Kath and Kim. We like decent documentaries and current affairs which give us facts. We like Grumpy old men, Grumpy old women, Creature Comforts...we even liked Lost. So give us something to watch and we'll watch but we otherwise chose to do other things because TV is about persuading us to think in a particular way and we'd rather discuss things with others if that is the case.
