TV shows. I look at them like the modern day version of going to the Colosseum in ancient Rome. It is cheap entertainment that really adds no value to this world and keeps the attention of the masses away from paying attention to what the 1%ers and Conservatives are doing in this country. It is kind of the legal drug of choice for so many.
