I watch alot of tv in the winter, as my business slows down...
I have personal biases. I was a special education teacher for 12 years before my present occupation.
I'm having big problems with shows like "Extreme Makeovers"...which devaluates the inner beauty and souls of people...
I'm having big problems with "My big, fat obnoxious fiance" (which I think is absolutely hysterical)...but, it's a big fat lie of people playing off each other to the demise of this girls' parents and brothers...I am miffed at her insensitivity to other people...
I'm having major problems with "Average Joe's", which remind me of some of the special needs folks I've taught...and the mocking them, and making them feel like **** and relive high school days of being mocked and criticized...
I am pretty fed up with the world.
I'm buying me a house in the mountains of Vermont and disappear.
TV is scarey...and I think the world is far on the path of evil.
well Wackster, before you go to the mountains, watch Sabado Gigante... it is a hilarious and fun time... and all in Spanish... you'll smile, I promise (MasterP and I wouldn't lie to you)
Sorry, Roy, I can't really answer the question directly because I don't watch much TV, (funniest video-type shows are my choice)and screen what my boys watch. My hubby used to watch a lot of the sit-coms, and I am VERY glad he doesn't anymore!
My boys and hubby watch the while you were out shows and such. I'm glad that is what they watch, but heck, some of the commercials are AWFUL! I finally got it through all their heads to just mute the TV during commercials, and that cuts down actually watching them! I watched The Superbowl, including the commercials to get a flavor of what's going on one network TV-- HMMMMM! (I'll stick with my reading, thanks! LOL!)
If it was really up to me, I would have a TV only for watching videos. And move to the mountains and escape! lol!
Ad Astre Alia Porci "to the stars on the wings of a pig"
My favorites (and I have no idea if they are from the Devil or not?) are CSI, Survivor, Court TV-Dominic Dunne's Power, Privelege and Justice., ESPN Sportscenter, Monday Night Football and Golf (if Tiger is playing) and Jeopardy. Am I going to Hell?
evil tv = Fox News Channel, unfair and way out of balance.
Define fair and balanced Rocky. Your views on GS? Perhaps government censors should shut up anyone to the right of Allen Colmes? End all commercialization of TV news? All Bill Moyers all of the time? I think the Brits have already done that...its called BBC. The former MD of BBC is available, he just got sacked for lying.

The most evil shows on TV?
Easy. The ones I don't turn off if I feel there's a problem with them.
Oh. Wait. That would make something wrong with me. Wrong thread.
Carry on.

evil TV ==== Definitely the sitcoms, where they can't even think of a good name for the show.
