The Quick Fix

Give us the quick fix
The easy way out
A heady dose of
Instant gratification
And we'll forget about 
The intellectual annihilation
Of sixty second news 
On BBC Three
Then prime-time karaoke
From deadbeats on ITV

If you're looking to British TV for your fix, Kevin, there will be another chance in an hour, or a day, or a week ... P.S. I share your opinion of those particular channels (but we do watch Family Guy - is that wrong?) Nice witty write!
