Soo my Mom doesn't actually have regular television, she's way too cool for that. Usually, it's ok. They just download their regular shows and watch them then next night. But it can backfire when so many of the best shows came back tonight.
Please don't think I have no life. I just have a great appreciation for TV and movies. Anything that creates happiness is good. Some of the best comedies on television right now- Community and 30 Rock started tonight. I'm excited to catch up on those. Then Grey's Anatomy came back after the most intense season finale ever with the shooter. Other than that, I'm really only concerned with Desperate Housewives which may not have many seasons left.
But these are purely for entertainment value. What I am becoming more and more impressed with is The Daily Show and Colbert report, which I have been watching for years, but am just now realizing how important they really are. I am heavily considering starting a Stewart/Colbert blog to follow the issues they discuss. I mean really, it's the only honest, factual media that I know. I just wish more people knew this.
You want to know what I wonder? I wonder how are all the wrong and evil things in the world so obvious, yet people make them the only option? The way FOX news deliberately report distorted facts that teach hate and distrust with distrust. The way that the 400 richest people in America could pay off the entire nation's credit card debt with 10 percent of their worth. The way every GOOD president or figure in history we've ever had has been assassinated? It's as if some higher power decided that going in the right direction is not allowed. Fair is not everyone else's fair to the rich and powerful.
Pretty soon, there's going to be an uprising, and people will be driven to demand the change that Obama cannot deliver on his own. Whether he has given it a very good shot is not for me to say. And I definitely wouldn't.
