Fox was always a staple of my Saturday mornings.

That kind of sucks. Infomercials are pointless, in my opinion.

No, they aren't. They make sure that a station can make money without worrying about trying to get programming people will watch, or raising a finger or putting forth any effort at all...

I find it hillarious, parental groups that pretend to care about kids. Gaara from Naruto buries his head in the sand, a stupid kid dies, and they're all over it. Lipservice on the FCC 3 1/2 hours of educational TV with shows they know no one's gonna watch or care about.... crickets and tumbleweeds.
