How TV Ruined Your Life

Charlie Brooker
Charlie Brooker has a new show on BBC2 entitled How TV Ruined Your Life in which he explores a myriad of ways that television has skewed our perspective on life and, ultimately, made it more difficult. I've only been through two episodes thus far but both were enjoyable - a sign that the entire series is worth tracking down. Brooker works best when he's going off on a well-worded rant, rather than trying to display some absurdist sketch to prop up his point but there's a good balance of the two throughout. You can watch the episodes on Youtube but since they're not officially sanctioned versions, they may not be there long.

What is it you're looking for?
