TV

I’m sick of seeing family-oriented shows. Not everyone has a wife and kids, and not everyone wants to see shows tailored to that crap. I want to see a show about a vigilante, if you want to use that term, who has no wife and kids… never had any wife and kids, never lost them in a horrible accident, doesn’t blame some faceless corporation for their death, isn’t out after the man who killed his wife and kids. That is what I want to see. And I want him to have a moral gray area. He doesn’t really have a problem with killing people… or mutilating them to get what he wants or needs… I’m not really sure what that is yet… maybe information… maybe he just wants money for the subway… who cares. I want to see a protagonist dance nimbly on the line between antagonist and protagonist and be perfectly happy there. I want to see a dark hero who doesn’t really care about the value of human life, or society’s rules. I want someone who is openly an atheist. And if he regularly blasted organized religion, that would be awesome. A dead pan sense of humor would be a nice touch too. But his apathy would not extend to animals. He would be super caring of animals. Kind toward them. He would put their lives above the humans. And I don’t know, make him fight crime, or save the planet somehow. That would be a show I would watch regularly. But there aren’t any of those shows out there. All the shows out there are reality shows, or some variant rehash of the family oriented show. That is why I don’t watch television. And don’t even get me started on reality programming. WHY would I want to watch scripted drama on tv? I LIVE reality almost EVERY DAY. It all ties in together, see this is why I hate people.
