"Why do people watch TV?"

Seriously. It's mostly a wall of loud, obnoxious, mouth-breathing crap. The nearest sound to hell is the Will & Grace theme tune. Especially now at 9 in the morning, that piano really drills right into my skull. The show isn't any better - they're gay, that's it. Friends for bummers, and even more annoying. "Do you want the TV left on?", she says, "What do you think?", is my response. It really winds me up in the mornings, moreso today because I only had about 5 hours sleep and have a metric tonne of work to do. Waking up to Lorraine Kelly's screeching hag(gis) of a face doesn't help my bear-with-sore-head mood.

EDIT:

Let me clear that up a bit: why do people watch TV that isn't interesting or entertaining? All those filler shows that people just sit and stare at vacantly, mouths open, doing nothing but exist as an estimated viewing figure for half an hour, before another cup of tea.

True.

But why are you watching Will and Grace in the morning? If you don't like it, don't watch it!

I watch it for the small genius pool; Undergrads (9:00pm on Trouble), the occasional episode of "That 70s Show".

And sport. Gotta love sport.

And ocasionally MTV2 or Kerrang...
