TV
What is happening to the good old TV that we knew and loved, the digital revolution seems to be killing it, with endless repeats of old 70's programmes, and pointless game shows where, we no longer care if the contestants win or loose.
The intrusive fly on the wall documentaries or the make over shows, where a house is made over with all of the skills of a five-year-old, stencils and hand-painting everywhere. Bring back the good old days of a black and white screen, a well written story line, sets that moved all of the time in the wind, actors who talked as if they were reading from a box of corn flakes, ah, those were the days.
Where Muffin the Mule was a programme for children, and not something you got arrested for, where Andy Pandy could dress like that and not seem Gay, where Bill and Ben were a couple of flower pot people with a weed for a friend, and not a drug crazed couple, whose words were unintelligible to normal people with a pot plant that spoke to them.
