Bad use of air time

CBS is using the moments in between timeouts to promote two of its upcoming shows: "How I Met Your Mother" and "The Ghost Whisperer." This is a big mistake. Britney Spears, who will guest star on the former, is just a disaster of a person and Jennifer Love Hewitt, the star of the latter, is over the hill at 29. If this was 1998, it would be a great idea. Just a decade late, CBS.

Agreed, but still, I'd rather watch either of those two shows than any reality TV garbage.
I'm happy to say I've never watched a minute of American Idol, Dancing with the Stars or any piece of crap with pseudo-celebrities involved in some inane competition.
When will reality TV die?

Not any time soon ... the two aforementioned shows are the two highest rated shows in America. I think 60 minutes is up there, too, but reality TV is here to stay, my friend.

I refuse to accept that. REALITY TV MUST DIE! STOP WATCHING THIS JUNK, PEOPLE!
