Call me a snob but I have not been in the habit watching local TV shows for the longest time. Why? I don't know. It's just that over the years I lost interest in watching noon time shows and early evening shows as they were too slow-paced. A scene that could very well be presented in 5 minutes could drag on until the next installment. Time is precious. I cannot afford to sit in front of a television and wait for scenes to unfold.
I will never win in a game where I need to name current Pinoy movie stars and shows. I thought Kimchu was a derivative of Kimchi and related "Binondo Girl" to a girl who shops in Binondo. One noon time I had the inkling to watch Willy Revillame on channel 2 and my maid told me that he transferred to channel 5 and that his show was slotted in the early evening.
I was eating lunch with my sisters-in-law and they were talking about certain persons who I don't know. When the talks became juicier I finally asked who those people were. They almost fell to the floor as they laugh for they were not talking about real persons but telenovela characters.
Am I a lesser being because I do not waste my time watching telenovelas? I watch TV shows and movies to get entertained. Am I a snob for I tend to watch US shows? Now I wonder.
