It's Time I Bitched Again....

I just have to say that watching tv back in the eighties was a lot of fun compared to how it is now.
You used to be able to watch a show and it's credits at the end and then be subjected just to commercials, but it's soooooo different now.
Now during your show, whatever the channel, there's some sort of graphic in the lower left, or lower right, and sometimes BOTH corners.  Something showing what channel you're watching, in case you forget for a SECOND, and one for what's coming up soon, or maybe in a few days.  These started out being random, then they consistently stayed on screen and now they rotate, move, and float around to get your attention off of whatever your watching.  Sometimes they block text down at the bottom of the screen, sometimes they block subtitles you need to read during your movies, sometimes they block very important information.  It's maddening to me, and so so annoying!
It seems like a trend today so I know it's not going anywhere.
The second bitch I have is about credits.  I didn't mind watching credits before and I still don't, but some channels really feel the need to speed them along or scrunch them into a size of half the screen so you can't possibly read them anymore.  They talk over them, show a commercial along side them or both.  There's a channel that shows things in their schedule at 5 or 7 minutes after the hour or half hour just because they're cutting up shows all over the day.  This is not a big deal if you have a DVR set for a program but for the rest of us, it's just another inconvenience.
I know this is a stupid thing to bitch about, but this is my blog after all.  I suppose if you didn't want to read it, you wouldn't be here reading these words right now......
Sorry y'all.  Just had to get it out of the system.
I'm pretty much a volcano of stress these days and can't deal with a fraction of what I used to be able to handle.
