can the sabrina one be changed to: Chubby T&A played by a cock-eyed girl? (yes, she's cock-eyed, BAAAAAAAAADLY)
 
Let me guess at the running times of these shows. I don't watch them, so I'm projecting. Feel free to correct me.

Sabrina - .5 hr.
Charmed - 1 hr
Angel - 1 hr
Buffy - 1 hr.
Pokemon - .5 hr
Power Rangers- .5 hr
Any 'reality' show - 1 hr

Now, let's assume you had to watch each of these shows a minimum of 3 times to be able to state unequivocally that they are crap (with the exceptions of Pokemon and Power Rangers; those are accepted as crap on first viewing.) That is fourteen hours you have spent watching crap. Multiply you by howevermany people watch these shows and decide they're crap: that's a lot of hours. Add in the people who watch them over and over, that's a lot more hours.

Conclusion: Americans watch a lot of hours of crap. What the heck did we ever do without TV?
 
Hey I watch Buffy and Angel!! 😛 😛
I still catch Friends and The Simpsons every now and then...

Cartoon Network and Saturday Morning Cartoon is where its @!!

Anyone catch the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles they aired on Fox 🙂
 
***Why are these shows still on the air?????***

Why do you care? My TV has features such as ON/Off and chanel selection. Everyone is free to watch whatever they want.

now see? to me, the only thing worth while in your list is Samurai Jack. The rest could go away, especially SG-1 a.k.a. MacGuyver in Space! ( said like Muppets in Space 😉 ). bleck!
