oprah, oc and other tv observations

these days i rarely get the chance of watching TV.i used to watch 2 movies per night but thats a thing of the past now.but due to some wierd time changes introduced by star world, the only time when i do get to catch some tv time is when i get home from work.usually bold and the beuatiful is on at that time.that show amazes me.how theyve managed to keep the story going around ridge and brooke is amazing.hehe i mean the twists and turns are non stop.anyway i just watched some more episodes of OC after a long time.i still have a few left to watch but one thing about OC is i really dont know why i watch it.it is non-stop drama with highly annoying people enacting the drama.i dont know.those kids dont even seem like high schoolers.ok this is wierd but ive started watching oprah on sunday nights.can anyone tell me why the audience is so crazy about oprah.people start crying when oprah opens her mouth.she could become the president the way she has people eating out of the palm of her hand.hehehe.my favorite show on the tele these days is a british comedy absolute power.british comedies are taking over the world of comedy shows.they are totally refreshing and original.i love em.on a final note even though i dont watch tv much these days, one thing i can say about our cable here in lahore is that even though there are 90 channels to surf and choose from, usually nothing good is on on any channel.sure beats the ptv,ntm days but one would imagine finding something worth watching on one of the 90 channels.
about our mushrooming local channels.i find business plus and aaj tv to be the best.geo is still the most watched but its standard has really gone down.instead of lifting their standards theyve beome the jerry springer type channel.sensationalising everything from drama to news.hmm i wish opening a tv channel was as easy as starting a blog.
