The be honest and positive, one can't be negative all the time, it's so easy to be so, we did watch several Christmas programs that were worth watching.
But having said that, I have to go back to the negative as one show that we watched, regrettably so, was beyond being just bad, it was appallingly bad. In fact it was disturbing.
We watched I believe was the premier show for AgentX on TNT. I won't go into any gruesome details other then to say it was a secret agent program that was under the control exclusively and secretly by the Vice President of the United States, and if that's not bad enough, the authority to this is spelled out in our Constitution in Article 5 that he or she can do what ever is necessary to use this agent to protect the country from evil doers.(There is no Article 5 specifying such nonsense).
Getting right to the problem here is the protagonist, antagonistic as well?, the evil doer, a pretty woman, murders in cold blood, three or four police officers while escaping solitaire confinement. and then is chased by a somewhat comical like agentx, in the best tradition of 'Get Smart', that uses humor while in the throws of the hunt for a kidnapped girl, saves her, it's always a girl, but eventually confronts the evil doer in a pitched battle where he is romped on stomped on but in the end captures her, and returns her to solitary confinement only to have her blow the cell door off the hinges with explosives smuggled into by other evil doers and escapes again, killing I suppose untold number of police.
There has to be something very wrong when the killing of police offers at point blank range and treating it like a skit on Saturday Night Live begs thinking our society has become lost in a careless depravity like never before. Little wonder then why this kind of thing might be something for a person that does not have a firm grip on realty would believe that such killing. would not have consequences in real life.
