Wouldnt it be nice to get a decent indiependent station in each major market not affiliated with "Foul Fox" or Warner Bros. It would be great to have an 8 o'clock movie in 2 hours. This Christmas I would have liked to have watched "Its a Wonderful Life" Its a 90 minute movie. I tuned in NBC and with all the damned commercials it was 3 hours!! Forget it.

Sitcoms today are not funny. Stupid with sexual overtones. Who cares whose getting it and whos not. Dont care. Theres so much old stuff out there they could run. TVLand runs the same old stuff.

The networks keep running their primetime shows over and over. I used to like Greys Anatomy. But ABC reruns the hell out of it. Why can they take their old shows or miniseries and run them. Games shows in primetime.They are cheap. Its crap. NBC is cheap. Reality shows. Yech.

The networks would be better off running 20 year old shows. They have all these shows and its stupid not to use them. Why not? Get rid of the bimbos om the Tabloid Show and put on some real shows!

Well, we do have a station like that here in Pittsburgh on channel 59, low power over the air but it is on our cable system. It is run by the "Bruno Goodworth Group." They have repeaters all over the SW PA area too. They have a locally hosted horror movie show every Saturday night and they run old shows like "Hawaii Five-0" and "The Streets of San Francisco." When I can, I usually watch those shows but recently, Five-0 is out since I have to be at work at 6 AM so I have to get up early. The station itself reminds me of what I would find on an indy UHF station when I was a kid, circa 1975 to 1980. It is a breath of fresh air. Also since Paramount and WB collided and formed the "WB," that left one station here out in the dark, Channel 22 I think so I have seen stuff like Andy Griffith on it during the weekends.
