I have questioned the sanity of the entertainment media with Reality TV, UFC, etc. But now I think that the American viewing public is just pathetic and sick.
Cable network Spike TV will soon be showing a program entitled, “1000 Ways To Die”, now the promos say that it is all about the ways people die, like hit by a car, attacked by an animal and such and all caught on tape. Since the “Faces Of Death” series was so imporant to the movie rental business I guess Spike wanted to cash in on the insanity of the American people.
Is American society is sick that watching someone die is entertainment? But I guess good taste is not an option when trying for ratings. What could possibly be the next “big” deal in entertainment? Maybe I should not have asked that question–the possibilities should scare you.
