I honestly do not understand why anyone would want to watch TV ~~on their fridge.~~

I was sat in the optician's waiting room the other day, and there was some cheap gameshow on the TV, where people would win like £20.

I couldn't believe that people would even film it, let alone broadcast it.

Watching broadcast TV is the equivalent of going to a restaurant, not wanting to choose and just asking the waiter to pour any old slop down your gob.
