Retro plays more classics than TV Land, and it shows some great B&W shows, but they leave out a lot of shows to include 1980s-1990s shows. i do like Knight Rider, Magnum P.I., and Dragnet, and they do show Leave it to Beaver, Black Sheep, and McHale's navy, but that's the limit on the classics. they still leave out Lassie, Dennis (those two haven't aired in ages, had to use *ick* Youtube to view Dennis The Menace) and many other great shows in favor of more recent TV.

Now don't get me wrong, i can watch new shows, i like Two and a Half Men, Everybody Loves Raymond, and my 1990s playlist includes Frasier and many others, but you cannot get me to watch 'reality' TV. it would've been neat if it was a one time or two thing, but now it's become played to death.

The only thing close to a 'reality' show i watch is 'Total Drama Island' on Cartoon Network (at mom's). that only because it plays fun on how stupid reality TV really is.

Reality Television has existed for ages. there's tone of real tv shows. 14 News, CBS News, News Hour with Jim Leher. of course you got entertaining reality TV with cash prizes, too. try Wheel of Fortune. or Price is Right. those are all entertaining reality shows. they have real people, winning real money, in real contests. no stupid themes like today's reality shows, which are hardly real.

The problem i have isn't with the shows themselves, but the fact they pollute so-called 'classic TV' networks. Classic to me means old shows from the 1950s-on. but reality TV is on EVERY CHANNEL!!! i have no problem with those who enjoy them, but keep them on their own channel. Classic TV is NOT 1990s TV and up.
