Move over baseball, The Real Housewives of Orange County are here and you can watch them inject botox, get lipo, or have some other elective surgery currently in fashion this week, in vivid color on your flat screen HD tv. How did this happen? When did our priorities as a culture take such a seismic shift? Though, it is still possible to find quality programming on our big screen, high definition televisions, one need only look at the ratings to see that most are choosing not to.
