What are you watching on TV right now?

Watching a chick rock all night special programmed by Joan Jett on ABC - Siouxxie and the Banshees just finished and Blondie is on now with Union City Blues.

I am currently watching nothing - my satellite receiver has fritzed.

I was watching a special on the 69'  Woodstock festival and now I want to vomit. That sounds rude doesn't it? The representation and the coverage is ignorant though. They don't attempt to change facts as much as they leave chapters out. That would be the insight of  some viewers. In otherwords, these scholars who conduct interviews or direct the biography are not truly surpressing facts and are off the hook because vital chapters in rock history are not worthy? What the hell kind of thing is that to say?  It's stupied to even consider justifying the content of any 60's bio TV show. They leave out all the influential artists who according to the press were misfits or experienced misfortune and unfortunately those are the artists from the 60's who influenced prog more than the usual suspects. Think about it. Think really hard. How ignorant is it to block out history based around a business concept which supposedly brings in astronomical amounts of green?

^ I would laugh at that. But I always feel a bit miserable on Sunday. Needs something extra special for a real laugh.

I was watching a show which revolved around the subject of "Heavy Metal" music and the influence it has on young people. Many 90's murder cases and more recent tragic events too. It all seemed to derive from the "Satanic Panic" scare of the 80's. Jesus H! this stuff is still going on? Getting high, following Metal lyrics and being a role model, running across a modern book on demonology and trying to gain power, sacrificing your friends? The show covered ritual killings in Norway and Italy. I gather from viewing this show that the mentalilty of these people is that of the "Satanic Panic" era. Older Satan cults would not engage in the same moronic behaviour. Disturbing but not moronic. Why don't they cover that aspect to the occult environment? They are too concerned about how thousands of kids can listen to Metal and not bring harm to others. What about the many kids who were sacrificed by Satan cults in the 60's and early 70's when there was no such term as "Heavy Metal"? Why don't they review some history and make the show more educational? T.V. sucks!

I was channel surfing late last night and I was thinking how entertaining it would be to run across Albert Brooks "Lost In America". Many of the scenes in that film have me rolling on the floor. Especially all the ones where he plays a character with his butt in a sling. He is a talented writer. I checked out "The Scout" instead. It was hokey but Albert Brooks has some great lines and some of the history on baseball written within the script is rather funny. In any of his fims during a scene where he walks into a room and begins to open his mouth, I start laughing.  

Family Guy.
