( WARNING, obvious being stated)
In the world of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. They say that cream always rises to the surface, and one other thing apparently, I don’t detect much dairy in I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, unless bullshit counts.
The only thing worse than Australian prime time TV is Australian off peak TV, in fact, TV has reached such a sad and sorry all-time low, that it is a wonder it still functions at all.
Television no longer needs to pursue excellence, it drastically needs to start doing well, at the basic level.
