I can't even watch Agent Orange on tv with the sound off. But I'll check the commentary from any brave DUers who can control their gag reflexes well enough to tune in. I'll probably watch those true crime shows about serial killers on the Investigation Discovery channel because they don't scare me as much.

Do the ratings really matter? Seems to me, the better the economy, the lower the ratings because fewer people are concerned.

I'm not boycotting. I just can't stand the sight of that orange shitstain, and the sound of his voice makes me want to throw something through the TV set. I just got my first new TV since Bill Clinton was in office. Not taking any chances, as I don't want to buy a new one, and I don't want to go back to the old cathode ray tube set.

I will be paying more attention to the reactions of the audience; lots of drama and comedy in that



P.S. I receive my tv signal over-the-air so I can't contribute to Prez Hornswoggle's ratings
