Me, pretty much.

TV sucks because the shows I want to watch all run at time I can't watch them at (unless you pay for DVR) and anywhere between 15 and 20 minutes of a show is just advertising.

Netflix, youtube, vimeo, etc. provide a much better source of programming.

The only thing TV is good for is local news, and local news reporting tends to be pretty low quality anyway, when you compare it to newspaper or radio.

I guarantee that within the next 30 years cable will be dead and TV channels will be subscription based services over the Internet.  You'll be able to watch live streams anywhere on your favorite iDevice and access a backlog of shows similar to netflix or hulu.

why do you say iDevice specifically.
Just cause apple currently pretty rules that market doesn't mean it's the only company out there.

history channel sucks lol

History Channel sucks when it doesn't show anything related to history.

Ice Road Trucking, Hillbilly Hand-fishing, and all shows like it aren't related to History.

Pawn Stars is kinda related to History but not really. Sorta sucks anyway

American Pickers I like.

Ancient Aliens... No, just no. Actually the theories are somewhat interesting

[Littledude]

the first season of ancient aliens was actually really good in my opinion.
and american pickers is the story of two closet homoloveuals who dig through trash.
I like pawn stars.

[Someone from Across]

Antenna TV, I like. so what if its old, sue me
But yes, TV nowadays is rather...corrupt.

Toddlers And Tiaras.

My dad and I found that show once, and we just laughed, feeling both outraged with these stuck-up mothers, and bad for the damn children that dress up so their parents can feel proud.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic doesn't suck.

History Channel sucks when it doesn't show anything related to history.

Well they can only make so many WWII documentaries.

[PowerDag]

^ trying to start stuff

[Mister Cheese]

Well they can only make so many WWII documentaries.

Touché.

However, there are plenty more aspects of history you could cover...

For example:

Revolutionary War
World War I (I actually haven't seen any shows or specials about WWI)
The Renaissance
The Civil War
Korean War
The War of 1812
The Puritans leaving for Plymouth Rock
The Columbine Massacre
The Hatfields and McCoys Feud (oh wait, nvm, they already did that)
The King Arthur Legend (?)

Just to name a few.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic doesn't suck.

It's a mixed opinion. Now get out before someone starts stirring pony stuff.
