All around us: HD, 3D, surround-sound, flat-screen, LED, LCD, plasma, home-cinema, free-sat, cable, on-demand. Do we get the televisual delights we deserve or is it all just moving wallpaper with nonsensical sound? Did we sign up to be shown these distorted versions of reality - scripted scenarios enacted by the mentally challenged but aesthetically pleasing? Is this what it has all come to?
You think you can avoid the excess but it's all around, there is no escape so sit back and vegetate.
