400 Channels and there’s Nothing to Watch
Posted on | August 5, 2009 | No Comments
I’m not sure why there is nothing to watch on TV when there are 400 channels to choose from but that seems to be the case more than not these days. Maybe it’s because we watch to much TV anyway and have seen everything that interests us at least twice. Even the Premium Channels such as HBO, Showtime and Cinamax show the same movies and series so many times that you could watch them four or five times if you so choose. I’m not so sure that my son has not found the right combination.
While I pay close to two hundred dollars a month for cable, phone and internet, he pays less than seventy dollars a month for all three. He and his wife take another thirty dollars a month and buy movies they know they will want to watch more than once on sale at different outlets both retail and online. They have more movies than anyone I know but always have a great selection when company is over, for kids of all ages or when it’s just the two of them. I’m tempted to do the same thing if I can only convince my wife to give up True Blood while it is new for the series on DVD and that will be hard to do!
