I havent really watched TV for weeks. The only TV shows Ive watched have been on DVD or downloaded, commercial free. The only exception is Babblebar Balabiba. But Marlo and I were at the Laundromat and they (hey the spell check just capitalized Laundromat on me) were showing Access Hollywood followed by E Entertainment News or some other E-tainment show. Now, I enjoy films when theyre done well, and actors who are good at their craft are definitely worth recognizing, but gosh golly gee whiz I sure dont care whos wearing what and whos pregnant with whose baby and how much glitter is in a celebritys poop. Holy cats what a vulgar pageantry of tanned glam. But the commercials! I remember why I hate TV. They really have to do something about that. When I move, there will be no cable TV. There will just be downloading and purchasing DVD sets after a season or series is done airing on the idiot box. And maybe some day TiVo.

iTunes is offering video downloads of certain TV shows already, and word is that CBS will be offering direct downloads as well, though they’re limited-time rather than “download file, watch whenever”.
The future is (almost) now.
