Most of today’s tv doesn’t deserve 10 seconds of time, let lone an hour...

No mention of Jussie Smollett's role in tarnishing the show?

Darlene Yarbrough, I don't think he is a handsome young man, I mean he's not ugly But I don't think he has a lot of posters on any walls.

Terence Tomes, Doesn't matter that big companies like DuPont shut down two profitable sites in favor of a Mexican and Chinese plant? Are you aware of how many scientists, engineers and technicians lose their jobs because of moves like that?

Marian Spitzig, I totally disagree. You are merely spouting old and tired impressions for those who have distaste for the new. TV has become incredibly cinematic in the past couple of decades. Serious writing and good character development is in abundance with actors now appreciating and coming to the format - over movies. Incredible TV series like The Wire, Hame of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Downton Abbey, The Last Kingdom, Cosmos, Missing, True Detective, and so many more. It is too simplistic to say that TV is not worth 10 seconds. Sounds like you just don’t appreciate the very good TV that does exist and that is fine too. But I am not jumping on your bandwagon. Yes, there is too much junk also around, but not all Art is for all people.
