A Song About The Television Man

The song Television Man was released the the band The Talking Heads some time ago. I heard it for the first time in years recently. The song is about the life of a man who watches television for most of his life. He watches so much he does not know if he is in the television or outside the television. But it really does not matter at this point.

The world comes crashing into his home through the television. And he admits the TV has made him everything he is. The television man says that people like to knock the TV.

A Classic Television Show Lives On

Where does the sheriff not own a gun and his deputy have to keep his one bullet in his pocket? Of course, everyone knows it is only in the television town of Mayberry. Mayberry was never a real town, but Andy Griffith is a real person.

The Andy Griffith Show was a television series that began in’60 and continued for a total of eight seasons. Even now, forty years after the cameras stopped filming the television series, Andy, Aunt Bea, Deputy Fife and Opie continue to be shown in homes across America through the syndicated television show. In fact, the shows have been shown far more times in syndication than they ever were when the show was on prime time.

The contrast ratio is defined as a measurement of the ratio between the brightest color (white) and the darkest color (black) that a television can produce.
