An old man once told me that the problem with programs today is that the theme song does not tell you everything you need to know about the show. He then preceded to cite "Lost" as a horrible show, having no theme song, and the very imformatively themed, "Giligan's Island," as the best program of all time.
Putting aside this peculiar theme song issue; the glut of horrid programming today is atrocious. On the train ride home today I perused through the tv listings on the back cover of the post. Here is what I found...
1) Farmer Wants a Wife: No wonder the CW is behind in ratings to not only the major networks, but also Univision. The summary provided, "The girls participate in a tractor race." Thrilling.
2) Living Lohan: reality program featuring the trainwreck that spawns more trainwrecks.
3) Celebrity Circus: Finally a vehicle to display the acrobatic and circus talents of joey fatone, greg brady, and a slew of "oh yeah, I remember that guy."
4) Russian Roulette: Game show where the if the contenstants miss questions the floor beneath them disappears and they fall to their doom. Only, it's not their doom, and more of a ball pit. Change ball pit to doom and we have a winner.
I think the old man had alzheimers.
