Pardon moi - Turner Classic Movies isn't puke, Godders - Harumph! 
 (Maybe ya don't get it out thre?)
The point is sooner or later almost every film ever made worth seeing 
will show up on
TV - cable is essential where I live for the reception -  I wouldn't be 
able to look at it at all without cable.
And I don't go to films in theatres anymore.

The medium is NOT the message - just because it is broadcast over a TV 
doesn't make it crap  -
That being said, if all you have access to are the broadcast channels, 
vast majority , even vast vast
is surely the case....

One can only look at one program at a time... so the "majority" doesn't 
matter.  

When Richard moved in with me in 1980 I had no Tv  - I had not had one 
for 20 years...
he scoffed. Now I'm glad he did...  but I still don't get most of the 
cultural references to
the 60's and 70's from pop culture... I think it is useful to know some 
of this stuff too.

anyway -
YEs, most of it is awful, but what I watch mostly isn't  

xo,
ann
