AFAIK they're still making new episodes. But I'm not watching them.

There still going but not strong IMO. I wish they would knock it off with every episode having some sort of message and just go back to making stupid episodes again.

Why the heck haven't they been sued for this yet??

I think the fact that they are making episodes with a message is basically a way to point out how idiotic their detractors are when they say that there is nothing important going on in their show--only mindless obsenity.

I find their irreverence to relevant topics quite amusing.

Thats why when I get my TV guide every week I take out a highlighter and go through every page marking good shows, that why I can always find good shows quickly during the week or know when nothing good will be on.

I think that the worst offender with the whole 'reality TV' phase is FOX, those bastards keep coming up with lame concept after lame concept, gah when will it stop!?

Fox's only redeeming value is the Simpsons, which makes it better than channels 38 and 66(I love confusing people!), but not much else.

They made a radio with fucking barbed wire and CHARCOAL. I love that show.

Oh, and the original Robot Wars TV show featuring Sir Lister of Smeg.

Heh, I keep forgetting to watch Robot Wars and I can't seem to find Rough Science on anymore.

I only have a pocket TV (avoids paying the licence fee

) but the only shows I watch religiously are CSI, CSI: Miami, Have I Got News For You, 24 and Spooks.

The rest is pretty much shit (I would add SG-1 to the list of watched programmes but I can barely catch it and have missed the last several series).

I'm gonna guess that 38 and 66 are porn channels?
