Entertainment

Do we have to watch reality TV shows? Aren’t our lives ordinary enough and miserable enough? Aren’t our lives sentimental enough and bitter enough? Do we have to fuel and construct narratives of mock heroes and heroines, and watch them enact their miseries in full view of the world? And seek entertainment from it?

Nay. I watch none.

Shefali, I know how you feel. It's better to stick to books. Not only are they valuable, unlike reality TV, they also deliver value for money.
