"With television, the ironies never end" -- truer words were never spoken, or in this case, published as Knight-Ridder content in The Southern Illinoisian. This article on "25 Tips For Better TV Watching" is marginally helpful, but infinitely creepy...it starts to sound more and more like a therapy session for dealing with a troublesome coworker or family member...or an addiction, for that matter. I am all for active, informed media consumption, but do adults need this much help negotiating their relationship with TV? I guess somebody must be watching all those network shows, so, yes.
