    Spot on. It may be that there is only a finite amount of entertainment available at any given time. If so, then every time a new channel is added to the lineup, that amount of entertainment is diluted. So, if Captain Kangaroo was top shelf entertainment with only 3 channels, the current 2 or 3 hundred have diluted that to what can only be called the lowest common denominator. Just my opinion. Someone might find the shopping channel high adventure, ya never know.

    My sister-in-law got my mom hooked on shopping channels. It was like a drug. We had to block them all and take away her credit cards. Just when you get done parenting your kids it's time to parent your parents. :frown2::D
