I don't understand the attraction
Smaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

Reality TV...
...is cheap to make and attracts lots of viewers, and thus lots of advertising revenues. Running a TV channel = pretty damn hard in this climate.

We do OK for TV here
Not cynical and therefore maybe open to attack, but there is some good stuff on the BBC if you grub around in the Radio Times for it -- particulary BBC 2, 3 & 4. C4 delivers the occasional whimsical gem too. Might not all be to your taste, but it's pretty diverse. Compare it to the output from any other country in Europe, or, heaven forbid, Asia.
