If being employed has taught me one thing above all others, it's that being broke sucks ass. If being unemployed has taught me another thing above all others (but below the ass sucking) it's that television sucks. I mean really sucks. The news, the sports analysis (how many times can you talk about one birdie putt?), the dramas, all of it sucks. It's indicative of a growing trend in the information age: that's that we generally do not need all this information. We deal with an onslaught of communication and entertainment in video, text, and sound and are we really any better for it?
That's where infoMania comes in. infoMania is a show parodying or highlighting the ridiculous onslaught of media and its effects on our society. It's young and hip, frequently using The Internet and you can even contribute content. If you have Current TV it's on Thursdays at 9 PM central.
And for those of you too lazy to check the thing for yourself, here's an episode. Enjoy!
