Refer to ‘The long run’ (Screen, October 16).TV is an idiot- box meant only for idiots. Too many 24 x 7 channels make TV redundant! In most TV channels the stuff that is shown is not worth watching with family. In almost all channels almost 90 per cent time is allotted for advertisements and though ads are a necessary evil this it is too much. Also in almost all channels programmes are too repetitive. The same programmes/films/serials are repeated. Even news is repetitive. It was much better when news was available at a fixed time only! In fact all news channels except DD are “Views Channels”.

On DD, there are no crass programmes or females in revealing dresses as inmost TV channels including private TV News channels. The only channel that can be watched without embarrassment by the whole family is DD and it has the most authenticated news too.
