"My favourite primetime network television show, "My Name Is Earl,"
which is actually, the ONLY primetime network show I have liked since
the cancellation of Fox's "Get A Life," will not be on tonight. Why?
I'll tell you. Because the fucking Olympics are on. I'm not won to get
emotional, but THAT PISSES ME OFF! The fascists at NBC circumvented my
favourite show so you idiots could watch skeet shooting, or roller
derby, or whatever the hell goes on in these stupidass events. Oh,
goodness, look at me. I'm so upset. I've got the vapours again. I must
go lie down.
Love,
Wavy G"

Aw, c'mon, wavy. Lighten up. The olympics are on only once every two
years, fer christs sake! You should thank NBC for postponing your
favourite show. Now, you will have something to look forward to in the
summertime in the rerun doldrums: a NEW episode of your favorite show!

I have never experienced "summer rerrun doldrums," since I have always
avidly avoided network television. "The Simpsons," being the only
exception, was I looked forward to, but after seventeen-some-odd years
on the "air," even it has finally run out of steam (Yeah, that's
right, I said it). "Arrested Development" is another recent
exception, but I never watched it "religiously," as I do "Earl." I
usually have "better" things to do instead of watching television, but
now I feel like I have to be home when it's on. This is a new
experience for me, and you are all going to have to help me through
this.

I, too, try and avoid network teevee. But...is there anything "better"
to do than watch teevee??? Hanging around these discussion groups, I
guess. Since i use my teevee as a monitor, that may not count as not
watching tv. I used to be a big fan of sftv, but with the demise of
almost all my favorite series in the last few years, I am somewhat
adrift.
