Sunday Morning Television

Long gone is the time when a Sunday sleep in meant getting up and putting on the coffee at 10am or even later.

Past is the era of relaxing in bed while reading the paper.

Long gone are the days where Sunday morning television meant informative, adult programs like channel nine’s Sunday with Jim Waley or if we got up really early Business Sunday.

For the last 3 years Sunday morning has meant rising at 6am to throw some Coco Pops and milk into a couple of bowls for two demanding little men.

It has most likely skipped the notice of people without kids and passed from the recent memory of people with kids over 7 or 8 but early Sunday morning television is really, really bad.

Last Sunday followed a familiar pattern. Kids awake at 6am and decide as usual that they would like to come down and see what we are doing rather than amuse themselves in their room.

After filling their breakfast orders I turn on the TV, sit on the lounge and hope for a miracle.

Once again instead of my much hoped for miracle I get Jesus.

Jesus on almost every single station. Channel 7, Jesus. Channel 9, Jesus. Channel 10, Jesus. SBS, Jesus. ABC, Jesus not that crap they play on Rage.

A browse of the Herald’s TV guide shows a constant stream of evangelism and R & B up until 8am.

Given these choices it was not a hard decision to get the Wiggles out for another spin.
