I’m with Sam. Looking back over the last half-decade or so, the only network television series that I’ve set aside time to watch was 24. When my wife watches tv, it’s usually the food channel, and I get most of my news and commentary from the internet. In the last five years, we’ve been to the movies about that many times…not because we dislike theaters, but because so few recent movies have been worth the price of admission. (The latest string of god-awful anti-war movies simply underscores my point — and their market share suggests many others agree.) Now, remind me again why I should care about a Hollywood writers strike?
