You* get the TV programmes you deserve. Nobody forces anyone to watch this rubbish. If people switched off in their droves they wouldn't waste their time broadcasting it.

*I say you rather than we because I switched off years ago. Tongue

That's right, it's all economics.  The ratings tell the sponsors which programs work, and the sponsors feed those programs $ to keep them on the air.  So yeah, if no one watches, but that's the catch, someone out there watches this stuff.  "Stuff", for want of a better word there.

Network TV has no bottom.
