  • It probably would have taken me a while to get the last subject.

  • because every channel is getting on the (UN)reality bandwagon crap!!!! so now we're left with junkie tv shows!!!

  • @WastedPo, (cont.) Even commercials used to be beautiful looking. Nearly every single one. Now they all look like they were shot by kids using cameras they got from Target (which may be close to the truth).

    Yes, in every decade there have been standout bits of art and entertainment, but in years past there was a certain baseline of quality that was much higher. It used to be you had a very good chance of encoutnering something that fed your soul. Now it's like finding a needle in a haystack.

  • @WastedPo, (cont.) ... I mean, does MTV even show music videos anymore, much less beautiful looking ones?

    Channels like Bravo or Food Network used to have some substance. Now every channel has degenerated to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Every channel is the same now. Last time I saw Food Network they were showing some reality show crap. Last time I tuned into Bravo they were showing some reality show crap involving models or Paula Abdul. (cont.)

    Even commercials use

  • @hedonism13, reality shows may have always been crap, but the thing is, they weren't the predominant source of entertainment ast they are now.

    In the 90's one didn't really have to look that hard to find quality. MTV showed absolutely beautiful music videos of all genres, and when they did show other stuff, it was genuinely creative stuff like The Maxx. There used to be entire channels that were dedicated towards its own creative and/or niche program. (cont.)

    True Blood, Breaking Bad, Mad Men and The Walking Dead are great shows on nowadays. Reality TV always has been, and always will be crap. I consider the '90s and early '00s as examples of modern media, personally, and if you did too I could rattle off countless more examples. I can't imagine anyone thinking of the '90s (which had classics like Oz, The Wire, Buffy, and The Simpsons) and thinking it was cheesy, but if you know people like that, I can only pity them.

  • Also, I do not get the impression that everybody thinks like I do in what I stated. It seems all I see today are people, when they look at media from years past, even something as recent as the 90's, it's always with a smirking air of, "look how cheesy those people were." This always astounds me since whenever I turn on the TV now it literally looks as though all programming is tailored toward the dullest minded 7-year-old. Even news programs. Things were *not* this bad in years past.

  • @hedonism13, no, it was not bright and flashy. It was bright and flashy in comparison to the standards of the day, but it was nothing to today's plastic. As far as the current media offering a lot, I can only ask you to try to compare to what past years had to offer. I don't even mean going back to a long time ago like the 50's or even the 80's. Even something as recent as the late 90's or early 00's had more to offer. Music videos, a variety of channels. Now it's predominantly 'reality' TV.

  • @WastedPo

    May very well be the most cynical thing I've ever read. There is no prevalent opinion that my generation's entertainment is sophisticated or intelligent - almost every body thinks like you do. Which is sad, because we actually do have quite a lot to offer.

    Also, tons of television from decades past was very bright and flashy.

  • @selphiexfairy, if you're saying that it's not cool-looking, then I agree. If you're saying that it's not desperately manic to try to "get people attention," I'd ask you to look at television from other decades. I guess what bothers me is the prevailing attitude that today's entertainment is intelligent and sophisticated while stuff from years ago is "cheesy" and shallow. An era defined by CGI Transformers, reality TV and Chris Crocker has no shame to play the witty sophisticate card.
