TV Station graphics rant

Tuesday March 24, 2009

Before I begin speaking of beautiful things, real or imaginary. I wish to, since I will, wish is incorrect, mention the irritation the TV stations have caused with their annoying graphics after each, and sometime prior, commercial. If I didn't want to watch the show provided, not to be distracted from the scene, I would not be tuning into the channel. The logo they have been putting on the screen for years now are annoying enough.
It seems they are using any reason to mark the screen so that it is not worth keeping to view again. In this age of time shifting and electronic storing, being told what you are watching and what is following is not a desirable service. I understand the studios being fraught about videos being traded and shared, without compensation, but if they are going to market it they will have to accept the way things are. I personally do not think most shows are worth the bother and irritation. I am waiting for the DVD version. If those become branded during the show, I will go back to reading books or spending time away from TV. Should not spend so much time at the entertainment center, anyway.
In not writing a novel about, what should be a minor irritation, I am keeping it short. I know I am not the only one unable to ignore the stations graphic distraction. I may be a bit more bothered by them but I don't think so.
Next will be a lighter type topic.
