It is one of my proudest boasts...
...that I have never seen Coronation Street.

Me too!
So that means we've made 50 years of not giving a flying fuck about it. Woot!

Not counting that bit in Red Dwarf, of course

Screw you, Grandad!
I'm only 37.

I'm not 50 either
But I like to think I was actively ignoring this utter tot even before I was born. Nay, conceived.

If you can't sum up the story (NOT the situation) in a single sentence, then it isn't real drama.

So many shows start off with a series that has a point, then, when that's a success, just go on with the "further adventures" of the characters. A couple of examples off the top of my head, that I got suckered into watching because a) my wife liked them, and b) the first series had some actual point to it: Desperate Housewives (OK, at least it has gags, but it's still a soap these days); Cutting It.
