@Elmud,
I disagree that they don't make television shows like they once used to. I am relatively young yet at 30, but there have been some outstanding shows over the last ten years. From Arrested Development to Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, and Pushing Daisies, there have been some excellent shows in recent history. Although it seems that the good shows go over the heads of the general public, and end up being dropped for pointless drivel that modern people seem to prefer.
