Agreed with all above, guys.
Seems to me, that the todays nature of TV makes it be stupid whatever country is in consideration.
Only 2 now-running shows stop me from throwing the TV-set out of the flat completely: the Game of Thrones and the Castle (which is unfortunately getting dull with each new episode, on the contrary to the GofT - 2nd season started not to bright, but the last episode was extremely interesting, I'll agree with Glorfindel)
Too bad there are no good running sci-fi shows anymore, like Trek or BSG. And even Blood and Chrome seems never to get it to the blue screen. Can't really understand, what those boses of tv-companies thinking with. Whythrwing on us all that crap - like skyfall or that tera-nova (maybe they thought that people would be interested in "yet another Lost clone, but now with dinos included"?!). The result is always the same - 1 season of complete questions and unspoken moments, which barely gets any awedience and then the closing. 100% for the best, but why all the faulty effort in the first place??
