Junk TV

I’ve always believed that if you feed viewers junk, they will expect junk. And the vicious cycle continues. That is why there is so much bad programming on Philippine television nowadays (on the big networks) that follow the same formula, particularly in comedy, an industry to which I’m very involved and feel very attached. So what is one to do, especially if you don’t have the budget, the connections, or the massive reach as the big networks. Thankfully, there’s the Internet. But the internet itself is not immune to bad programming. How many stupid videos that have really bad production value have you watched that have surprisingly millions of hits? One too many. I don’t have the answer, but if you have any thoughts, please let me know.
