“We’ll leave groundbreaking to someone else”

ABC: “We’ll leave groundbreaking to someone else”, as spoken by ABC Entertainment President Susan Lyne at the twice annual TV Critics Association tour.

What?? That’s like Avis saying “We’ll let other people try harder, for a change”. I mean, really, are they surprised that I don’t watch their network anymore? (well, except for The Mole)

From time to time — if I’m on the elliptical machine at the gym or I otherwise have some time to ponder life — I sometimes think about what I might select if I were only allowed 5 television channels. If I had to choose today, it’d probably be: Comedy Central (for BattleBots and South Park), TLC (for Junkyard Wars, Trading Spaces, and Robotica), Discovery Channel (for Monster Garage), CBS (for Survivor and Big Brother) and TNN (for Car & Driver TV and TNG).

  1. Hey, when I have time to ponder life, I also wondering about which five television stations I would pick. Yeah, I figure, no need to worry about important things–now what I can I think about that’s totally useless?

    But, you know, whatever floats your boat.
