   Besides, who'd wanna watch it anyway, what with that ridiculous,   
   intrusive black band across the bottom of the screen that shrinks the   
   viewing area but doesn't adjust the aspect ratio, and which   
   "helpfully" provides a continual "reminder" of what show is on. Hey   
   TNN! Get a clue. I already KNOW what %*&^ing show I'm watching! I   
   don't need to be reminded. Funny how that crap disappears when the   
   commercials come on, huh? (Not funny actually. That's sarcasm folks.)   
   Anyway, I've made my personal stand against this kind of junk by   
   refusing to watch TNN even if they're airing something I would   
   otherwise enjoy seeing. I think that used to be called "cutting off my   
   nose to spite my face."

   P.S. If TNN has changed the way they do things I wouldn't know because   
   of my boycott, but if they have then I retract my comments.
