I have Basic cable, and have also thought about pulling the plug on it, because there is rarely anything worth watching. And what REALLY gets to me are the commercials. They are constant. 3 minutes of show followed by 4 minutes of commercials and then another 3 minutes of show. It's amazing! Then, of course, they have to tell you what is coming up next on the episode, to keep you watching, and when it gets back from a commercial break they have to recap what they just said. It's like there's 10 minutes of show and the rest is repeat and commercials. Actually, 10 minutes of some shows is 9 minutes too much.
OK, off my soapbox now. Can you tell this really bugs me?
