Television. Television is one of them most used forms of entertainment to Americans today. Some think it is a blessing, and some say it is a curse. Think about it. Some good things about television are that it keeps us up to date on the latest news, weather, and world events. Television keeps us up to date so we know whats going on outside the walls of whatever fortress surrounds our lives. The TV can also serve as a source of education for young children. Little kids are starting to learn all of their shapes, colors, numbers and other basics. I have to admit little kids aren't the only ones watching these shows. I may switch the channel over to Nick Jr. and touch up on my Spanish with my good friend Dora. Of course I do so in my own home, blinds shut, house empty, and in my pajamas. Next thing you know I'm sitting there yelling at a fox who looks similar to Westley from Princess Bride and wondering why, when I accomplish something, I don't get a mariachi band of critters to congratulate me.

On the other side, I can think of plenty of ways television is a bad thing. Number one on the list is commercials. Not only are these things annoying as h***, but they are also rather brainwashing. While your mind is sucked into the TV by the program you are so focused into watching TV that when commercials come on you may find yourself enjoying them instead of changing the channel to some real programming like a normal human being. You start to enjoy the ads and actually start to get interested into products. Commercials are even reaching out to us on YouTube. Seriously, when I look up a funny commercial on YouTube guess what I find? Yes, it has come to the point where we are watching commercials to watch commercials. What is the world comming to?
