I HATE TELEVISION

I Hate Television.

I hate the constant commercials, the studio oversight, the celebration of the same.

I hate the lack of diversity: The token characters and white-washed stereotypes.

I hate that anything remotely good on television either dies an early death or becomes syndicated beyond any recognition.

I hate that the magic of the movie theater is dying, as more people prefer to watch TV from the comfort of their homes.

I hate HGTV. I hate MTV. I hate reality TV.

I hate that groundbreaking performances on television go ignored consistently while Jim Parsons rakes in his fourth Emmy.

I hate that every Tinder profile I read has an Office quote in it.

I hate Kevin Spacey for ruining House of Cards, AMC for ruining The Walking Dead and everyone for ruining The Simpsons.

I hate that a good episode of The Twilight Zone is better than ninety percent of sci-fi television today, and a good episode of Seinfeld is better than ninety percent of everything today.

I hate that we have more television now than ever before, but it feels like we have less to watch than ever.

I love a good TV show, but God I Hate Television.
