What happened?

Whatever happened to really good TV programs? When I was younger it seemed like I had to be home at a certain time on certain days to watch my shows. Must See TV, Hospital Drama, Crime Drama, etc. etc. I realized when we switched to AT&T fiber optic cable service that other than sporting events I don't watch a damn thing. We can record 4 programs at the sime time on the DVR and yet scrolling through the guide I couldn't find 4 programs TOTAL that I wanted to record. I remember when Survivor premiered and I said"Who is going to watch that crap"? Well as it turned out EVERBODY watched that crap and now Reality TV rules. I did get to watch 1 great TV program this week when I turned on the TV after work and It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown was just starting.
