What is quality television really? by Kevin Mccarthy

Everyone defines quality in different ways. Whether it be a prime steak or a McDonald's hamburger, everyone has there own definition of quality.  When discussing our favorite shows in class, it started to think what my definition was.  I watch some TV but not as much as many others and when i do it is more sporting events then anything else.  I commonly watch Archer and The League, Spartacus, and Entourage.  My definition would say that those shows would be quality but that could be different for other people because some would say that Archer and The League are crude and stupid, Spartacus is way to violent and Entourage is what is wrong in society today because of how it profiles women.  Sure those things might be present but they are essential to the storyline.  Archer is James Bond with mommy issues. The League is mostly improv so there is bound to be some rude stuff in there.  Spartacus is about gladiators and there masters and Entourage, well the tag line says it all, "Maybe We Can Have It All".  Opinions are voiced everyday through the Internet, TV, and other media sources but when those opinions are being shoved down peoples throats that is when it is OK to say Shut up and leave it at that.
