Things I Hate About TV: It's all about news, talk, and reality
TV Squad | Things I Hate About TV: It's all about news, talk, and reality
This is a horrifying trend. Do we need that much news, talk, and information, all day long? Take my local stations for example. We have two hours of local news, sports, and weather starting at 5 am. Then the Today Show (and GMA and CBS' The Early Show) start at 7am, and that goes til 9. Then my local NBC station shows Regis and Kelly, and then at 10 they show that third hour of Today. Then at noon, it's an hour of local news. Then at 4, it's three more hours of news! And this is on top of all of the 24 news channels and talk shows that are on during the day. Gah gah gah.
I hate that moves like this are pushing out soap operas (do you realize Days of Our Lives is now the last soap on NBC??) and syndicated shows.
