Zap2it Elite Sheet Must Reads from the Web's In-Crowd



I like how the dish & cable companies boast of having 100's of stations, too bad they replay the same 20 shows over and over. Deadliest Catch has been in heavy rotation so many times, I get dizzy thinking about it.
All night usually consists of Infomercials, while the weekends and holidays give us marathons. It's clear to me they need more programing, not more marathons. I Love Lucy, how many times can a human being watch Lucy & Ethel working on a candy conveyor belt, it was funny the first 300 times.
I have lost interest in so many shows because I never know when the updated series are on, Top Chef, "uh which season is this, who is this guy?"
I've never understood why a news channel(MSNBC) fills their lineup with prison shows.
I like how an Angel photo was used for a Buffy marathon.
I THINK THEY SHOULD SHOW ALL THE ROCKY MOVIES ! LIKE HAVE A ROCKY MARATHON ! :)
