Trash TV
It's summertime, which means we can rely on at least this one thing, that the already questionable quality of what is on our TV schedules will plummit to ever greater depths. Not only do we have the now long established Big Brother dominating the channel 4 schedules as well as the tabloid papers, we have more vile nonsense like Celebrity Love Island and Celebrity Wrestling. It does sometime feel as if it is like the plot of a Dr Who episode, with television being designed to rot peoples brains leaving us susceptible to alien invasion. Quite frankly if the demand for such television continues to grow i'll welcome alien invasion.
10 minutes of watching any of the above 'reality' shows has me thinking along the lines of the great Bill Hicks, either praying for Nuclear Holocaust or to be abducted by aliens, hell even the obligatory anal probe would be less uncomfortable, probably.

Bill Hicks is quality - a guy totally ahead of his time. Imagine what he would have to say today about America.
Pretty much what he was saying when he was alive i imagine and then some
I shall probably reference him about once a week at least from current form.
