MTV has been annoying me more and more.  It's not so much about BEING on the
cutting edge anymore, as it is about trying to create the cutting edge with
all its media firepower. Beavis and Butthead is about the only thing I'll
watch on it nowadays.  

My favorite channel is whichever one happens to be running a Simpsons
episode at the time.
