To be honest, we almost never watch ABC TV or their SD affiliates. But, I had not seen green hide nor hair of the Grinch who Stole Christmas for several years and thought it might be fun again to catch some of the clever rhyming and use of langauge.
Well, it started off good..for a whole 5 minutes and then a blast of what seemed like an eternity of TV ads all pushing products aimed at converting Christmas spirit into greed and commercial salessuccess.
I am not sure what the total ad time and show time was in the half hour, but it was altogether too close to half and half. ABC did no favors to parents, children, or to Dr. Suess's memory by the full load of commercial manure dumped into the program.
