Posted 8 Jun 2013 · Report post It's been thirty some-odd years since the introduction of cable into most homes. I've listed what I consider to be the best channels/networks on television: 1--All three C-Span channels. You get the chance to see our legislature in action; keynote speeches for a variety of events are shown, at least initially, in their entirety; interviews are conducted in a respectful way, without the intrusion of the C-Span interviewer's opinions; a wide range of points-of-view are presented. The viewer can therefore form a more objective opinion of the opinions expressed. 2--Classic Arts Showcase. Video clips of musical performances and classic films and documentaries about various artists and musicians are shown. 3--Turner Classic Movies. Classic films--and forgotten old films that should be seen again--are shown, and without commercial interruption. Are there any I should add to this short list? P.S. One complaint I have about cable: Those who remember when it first started may also remember one of the big draws to cable: no commercials! And look at it now...
