Have you ever met anyone that's gotten a ratings box? I have and it was this bar star girl I knew that watched nothing but crappy reality TV, American Idol/America's Top Model and annoying sit coms. Worst part what she watched counted, because she was one of 200 boxes in Calgary that represent all the TV's in the city.

On the bright side think of it as a pyramid scheme where you're on top...sure you'll only get one show you like to their hundred, but do you really want to watch tv every night waiting to die? Read books or Graphic Novels (fancy comics), this is where all the dumbed down TV comes from anyway.
