I Hate the Olympics
I can’t stand the Olympics or any other sporting event that interferes with my television viewing. I miss Chuck, Supernatural, and my other favorite shows, and I want the Olympics to just end already!
I used to believe that all sporting events belonged on ESPN, where they didn’t cause preemptions of what I like to call real TV. Now I understand that some people don’t want to pay for cable but might also be sports fans. Why can’t we have a special ad-supported, free broadcast network to show only those sporting events?
Or, my real dream: true on-demand programming delivered to my television from the Internet.

I’m with you, sister! I hate the way “event” programming on one channel completely preempts other networks. Ridonkulous.
AND, I’d much rather pay a per show fee for the shows I want to watch when I want to watch them than a monthly cable bill for a bunch of channels I have no interest in. AND it gets my goat that they consider shopping channels like qvc and hsn a channel you have to pay for. THEY should pay ME to get their channels…
Sorry about the caps lock screaming. I’m kinda passionate about that topic…

ITA. The shopping channels should not be something I pay for the privilege of receiving.
