The Biggest Loser axed from Sunday night television

I do not claim to be a guru or a legend, I simply understand the nature of theatre, and I did warn (regularly) more than a year ago that ten was in strife, and would slip further if it didn’t alter its trajectory. So called reality television, caters to the lowest plateau, the “mindless majority” as it used to be called.
Not only do they consume voraciously, but it is a very difficult group about which to make logical predictions.
They are largely without discernment and will follow the trends, as moths follow candle light, the difference being that moths are looking for light, most of the low level viewing plateau are searching for nothing, preferring to be spoon fed by networks at the flat screen feeding trough, usually until, stuffed with gruel, they fall asleep.

Good television is not lead by dollar grabbers or bean counters, it is run with an element of risk and an occasional dash of reckless abandon, but the mainstay is a good programming dept, with selective ideas people, with entertainment, news and current affairs, and sports people, who actually know what they are doing and what they are talking about, not just washed up players, and other participants, selected because they were once popular or household names. Selective and tightly controlled programming entertains, educates, stimulates minds, promotes family interests, and develops a viewing audience for now and for the future.

Variety is the spice not only of life, but also of good entertainment; not the mindless isomorphic projections of cheap ideas, moving images and cackling common voices, known as reality television.
