Daytime Television — Ugh

2008 October 13
by WordNerd

Three reasons why I’m happy to not have to endure daytime TV at the gym on a regular basis:

  1. Sitcoms like the abhorrent Kings of Queens and Everybody Loves Raymond on TBS (I hate Ray Romano and Patricia Heaton with the passion of a thousand burning suns; ditto Leah Remini)
  2. Bonnie Hunt talking to and hugging creepy Elmo from Sesame Street (is that supposed to be endearing and quirky? and why does Elmo make me fear for my supposedly immortal soul?)
  3. Inane interviews with talentless celebrities (who are these people? and why am I supposed to care? and why must everyone be so skinny?)

Getting a TV would be good for one thing: Wii play.  A day working from home with a TV on would fry my brain; IP would come home to a soulless husk of a fianceé.

    You may not like Elmo, but how about his distant cousin Gitmo (from the Daily Show)?

    Oh no, they don’t show The View, do they?

    I forgot my user name.
