I have a sneaking feeling that you are being specific about one programme but rather than anticipate what it is I would say Channel 4 has lost the plot (the world has always been nuts so ignore that bit). I remember when it started as havign a clear remit to provide a different view of the world and to provide a programmign arena for people who at the time couldn't find a voice. What is distressing about C4 now is that loss of purpose, the sense of same old same old day-in day-out, endless shows like ig Brother (Big Brother's Little Brother; Big Brother's Big Dressed Up Sister or whatever other spin offs they can wring from a tired failing brand) and the ghastly patronising, How Clean Is Your Dog; Car; Brat or whatever the flavour of the nannying hectoring voice that passes for info-tainment these days.
Every now and then they surprise but it is rare. The US imports are now shoddy tyhe latest Friday offering being particularly third rate and the movies that it used to excel at showing, foreign lanaguage films; off the wall slightly curious independent films have been replaced with one film per week usualy a tired US studio film...so the brief answer is Channel 4 - shabby v shabby

I guess it doesn't matter what channel you watch the news is bad. We all feel the same way that the world is going nuts but we must not despair and give up hope. Mankind has had a very cruel history and it won't change. That is why it is important that each of us as individuals treat others with respect and do good to those around us. Put your hope in God and even in the darkest day He will help you. Don't despair try to look at the good in life too. If you focus on goodness even in the midst of turmoil you will be stronger to live in this world. Good luck and I hope your life is the best.
