Television Today Is Really Sad. The Previous Pope Was Going To Save It But Then He Disappeared. | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Hit Shows...
    I am of mind to think that the word "hit" is being abused by our Television Networks. Have you ever noticed that the Promos for the new shows often go something like this...

    Thursday at 9pm Central Time, be sure to tune in to the New Comedy Hit of the Fall Season!

    This is not such a strange promo but for the fact that the first episode is still 3 weeks away from being aired. This makes me wonder how they can legitimately call it is a "Hit".    
------------------------
    Reality TV...
    We also see the phenomenon repeated every year where a TV Show becomes a "hit" and immediately every network has one or two shows just like the original "hit show".

    When did this copy cat phenomenon actually begin? Did it start with Reality Shows? I am not sure if they were the catalyst for this copycatting but, since I mentioned them, I will expound on them in this Foolishness...Or Is It?
I Do Not Think That Reality Shows Are Reality
    If you care to comment on this blog posting and tell me I am all wet about this, have at it but you will never get me to believe that that man crawling across the desert dying of thirst is dying of thirst. If he were really dying, one of those 7 cameramen filming his every crawled inch would surely give him a drink of water.    
------------------------
    The Shows...
    At present we have a rash of shows that start with the word "The"...   
The View, The Chat, The Chew, The Five, The Talk, The Doctors, The Voice

    This is a re-publication of a blog I did before Pope Benedict XVI decided to resign. I was right about him resigning. I was wrong about him moving to California. That’s not bad. .500 would be very good in baseball.

    If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know that I have spies all over the world. My sources tell me that Pope Benedict XVI has decided to become the first Pope to resign without first having to die.

    He is especially disillusioned because he goes to great effort to visit many different countries and prepares very inspiring speeches which he hopes will go a long way toward making the world we live in a better place. However, his messages are never reported in the news. The only things ever reported in the news are that he went on a trip and he kissed the ground when he got off his Pope Plane. His messages of hope and inspiration are Papal World Wide Well Kept Secrets.

    If you think about this for a minute, you will realize that Papal World Wide Well Kept Secrets is not Foolishness.

    There is one exception to this Papal Informational Ban. If the Pope gets shot, that will make the 24 Hour News Cycle.

    I have it on good authority that, after the Pope resigns, he will be relocating to California. He is really excited and has already bought a Puka Shell Necklace and 3 Pairs of White Flip Flops.

    I can see that you are wondering what the Pope is going to do in California. Don't you see it coming? He is going to have a Daytime Television Talk Show. It's going to be called... The Pope

    Would I kid u?
