By the end of this decade or shortly thereafter, television networks as we know them today will cease to exist. They will be just another url on the world wide web competing against millions of others.

Network evening newscasts will go dark after the '08 elections and their news divisions disbanded.

Electing Hillary! will be their Magnum Opus.

I wish I had time to waste on youtube. But there's nothing on regular tv except so-called "reality" shows. Youtube offers a little more reality in their reality programming. And more comedy in their comedy.

Oddly enough, the only sitcom I have been watching semi-regularly is the George Lopez show. It's old and in reruns, but I didn't watch them when they first aired.

I haven't had a TV, as commonly defined, for at least 5 years (I use a composite/SVideo to vga game converter with a KVM and a 22" computer CRT).

Don't miss it, though MrsP still wants one. I guess we'll get a big screen TV, but it will have to have a PC connection or two (I tried this out at MIL's house - dropped a wirelessed desktop behind the TV to be able to surf the web from the couch when there - works great).
