TV stuff:

Ok, blah blah blah, American Idol, ok. All well and good but what really bothered me about this article was this paragraph:

In another intriguing network competition, NBC’s new serial “Heroes” returned from a hiatus last Monday with 14.9 million viewers, beating Fox’s “24″ (14.5 million) in the same time slot. Neither show, however, could beat CBS’s “Two and a Half Men” (15.8 million) at 9 p.m.

People would prefer to watch Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer rehash the same stale sitcom scenarios and lame innuendo jokes than a show as inventive and clever as ‘Heroes’, or as exciting and gripping as ‘24′?

As Helen Keller once said, “Despite everything, I believe that people are really stupid.”
