Entertainment

its funny how people fuss over wowowee and eat-bulaga. what i find entertaining here are not the shows but the people who argue about what was created to entertain them.

the media only produce things that mediocre people find entertaining. sadly, the media does not help in the development of its viewers.

it's good business to cater to the common idiot (rather than to persuade the audience to watch informative shows that can inspire and promote intelligence). you just have to come up with upbeat-and-meaningless songs and mix it with sexually suggestive dance steps.

these shows from the media, these songs from so-called artists, these things that we call entertainment can ensure that we degenerate back to the fur-covered-dung-hurling primates that we once were.

nice take on the matter, don. it'd be better to post your views on other blogs/sites like those in inquirer.net

i also hate how people would go gaga over those afternoon shows. you have people wtih supposed tight-upbringing in Catholic families willingly allowing kids to see scantily-clad dancers gyrating scandalously.

and i also remember something i read somewhere: gameshows is somewhere you buy money using your pride. c'mon, stop cultivating a culture of mendicacy, people!
