Some time ago, I complained (big surprise) about America's tastes in TV shows. "Reality" shows seem to rule the airwaves in the few spots where vampires and zombies don't.
I recently saw in the NYTimes that the former leader in ratings on cable channels, WWE wrestling (a hideous testimony to American tastes in and of itself), was actually beaten out by three other shows. Unfortunately for America's future and all that is good and holy it was beaten by the Walking Dead, Duck Dynasty and Pawn Stars (not that it really matters, but in that order). And was followed by Talking Dead, whatever the hell THAT is.
It doesn't take a curmudgeon to fear for our future.
