I've tried, but they are so insipid, so in-balanced in any way, so totally devoid of facts, they're just unwatchable after you seen UP and MHP.

The "old" Sunday shows are nothing more than campaign stops for the candidates, which is why you rarely see any of them on UP or MHP...they have to sit and answer real questions from people who aren't automatically friendly to their positions.
