Some people spend more time on their couch than the pillows do. Prime Time means resting their post-work laurels with a bowl of Sodium Crunchies in their lap and soaking up some quality alpha waves from the big blue eye. These faithful followers wield grease-stained remote ray guns and fire off attention-deficit blasts of infrared Nielsen radiation.

Admittedly I march lock stock in alignment with this army's tactics, but to the step of a slightly different snare. Crime dramas, gay fashion humor, stripping cartoons? next. Reality shows, cooking "personalities," victims of forcible remodeling? next. I don't love Raymond and I mustn't see NBC's Thursday night lineup.
