Experiments in TV viewing

Whilst flying to the great northwest I perused the in-flight magazine of Southwest Airlines and enjoyed an article relating the experience of watching Nickelodeon's two networks for 24 hours. And just a couple of weeks ago Ms Goat uncovered some old Rolling Stone magazines I'd saved from many years ago. One of them was the April 29th, 1993 issue that included a great read from Hugh Gallagher called 'An Experiment in Terror: 7 Days and Seven Nights Alone with MTV'. The money quote from the article is one I memorized the first time I read it: 'MTV exists to remind me how much I'm not getting laid.' Apparently I'm not the only one who enjoyed it fondly.
