Ha, nice. I've only seen the print versions before.

LOL

Mraked for later.

I watch LOTS of P.B.S.

I learned more from P.B.S. than I did in any classroom.

Speaking of which, I need to make a donation to K.E.T.

I'm kinda sad that it's not a real show.

Lmao...that was great. I quit watching regular TV when Survivor hit. Every time I turned it on it seemed that it was something just like this.

Go PBS!

You'd think the staged "reality" shows thing would have already run its course by now.

I have friends who are avid duck & goose hunters. They watch Duck Dynasty just to make fun of it.

I'm tired of the singing / choreographed dance "talent" shows too.

Unfortunately I don't think it ever will, and it will probably get even worse. Although I don't know how it could possibly get worse than Big Brother.

Either way, PBS rulz!

Not to sound like some whack job conspiracy theory nut job, but I think in alot of ways, TV like that is used as a tool (other than marketing & selling products) to help "dumb people down" / program people into ways of thinking. It's not just in TV shows, but in commercials as well.

Agreed x 100.

ORLY?

How about the cast of "Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo" (on the goddamn LEARNING Channel, rassen frassen... ), taking on the cast of "Cake Boss" in an episode of Family Feud????

I'm afraid to watch that. Maybe after I take a nap.

Subliminal indoctrination .. kinda scary when you realize how many stupid people there are in the world

A recent truth posted by a movie critic commenting on the raging success of Grown Ups 2:
The opening weekend box office take of Grown Ups 2 tells us that we are that much closer to "Ow My Balls" being the number one television show and "Ass: The Movie: In 4D Smellovision" dominating the box office.

I wish he were wrong.

Obama

That's what I meant.

Then they had this guy in Wisconsin (I think it was Wisconsin) who made the first one since then using the materials they would have had back then. He quenched the blade in oil, and when he drew it out, the motherfucker was ON FIRE. Was one of the coolest things I'd seen.

Ha, I just watched that and that WAS cool.

My god. It's used by US. We're the morons and that's what we want to see. This is why those idiot reality shows have gone viral, and the disease is permanent. We want to see the Jerry Springer retarded and drama queen mentality to justify our own behavior an make us feel better about ourselves. "As long as I don't act that bad, my behavior is perfectly normal." Uhh, no.

Uninformed simpletons.

Clearly it's used by Skull & Bones to dumb us down. Skull & Bones themselves clearly report to Our Lizard Overlords, themselves one of the Horde of Ten Thousand Peoples to report to the Leaders of Light from the Control Centers for Intelligent Life Committee of the Byzanthimum Elders that have controlled the development of every intelligent species in our corner of the Universe almost since the beginning of time, they themselves of course having the benefit of being the first, and thus allowed to assume command of all those who come after. The fact the rest of you remain blissfully unaware of this is all the proof you need their plan is working. In another generation, not even the most learned of us will remember. . . .

And THAT is how you build a conspiracy theory.
