It also seems like the junk-i-fication of TV has crept into cable networks too...used to be that networks like the discovery channel, TLC, American Movie Classics, Cartoon Network, TV Land even the Food network used to really focus in on the best types of programming that characterized that network...seems now that these networks have turned to I don't know what kind of stuff to try and get a different audience, like a lot of reality shows or adding commercials.

Remember when TLC showed stuff like The Secret Life of Machines? Now they have shows like a Baby Story or a Wedding story or some such.
I have noticed that on DirectTV there are some subsidiary networks that cropped up to take on some of the original programming of, say Discovery (Like Discovery Home channel, the Military channel, the Science Channel) which have some good stuff but these too seem like there is less on them.

It seems now that you have to have a system like Direct TV with a lot of channels to really catch good shows.
