Don’t know how it is elsewhere at the moment, but today in Germany popular TV and music is a bunch of trash, all daytime talk-show niveau. Every season looking for the next top model or superstar who can best sing covers, teenie-group has-beens running around in the jungle doing disgusting things on a dare just to be on TV, and as if it weren’t bad enough that we get to hear something everyday about Britney, Paris, Lindsey Lohan and Co., now we get to read about Knut the polar bear, his new cage and his favorite food. And people watch it and discuss it in their freetime! It’s like people have nothing else in their lives but their job and what’s on TV no matter what it is. And they tried to copy “Cops” but hardly anything bad ever happens here, so it’s just like two cops asking and old man to get off a private lawn or writing a woman a ticket because she didn’t clean up her dog’s poop. I’d love to see a show against all this crap. Something fun. Spoofs and interviews making fun of these idiots. Even if it were just some clown throwing pies or live rodents at them for example, something like that – just as trashy, really – still I’d watch it!

I dont watch TV anymore since several years now. Not only because of the trash which you mentioned, but also even the news and political discussions. I google for the news on some independent websites (not this mainstream shiit which you see on TV or popular magazines like "Spiegel" for pseudo-intellectuals ) ...and i sometimes watch documentaries on google video or youtube, etc......(stage6 had perfect quality videos but unfortunately its down now due to high costs for the servers)
