No Pity At All

Televisionwithoutpity.com, Twop for short, is exactly that without pity. This site offers one the opportunity to reflect on television programming almost immediately after it airs. They do have a hired staff that writes the reviews but at the same time it appears that the staff it also critical fans of the programming. Reviews tend to include episode plot summery with witty remarks about the episode. From there one has the option to enter forums and talk about whatever they wish in regards to the episode. Well within reason that is. Now the forums take on there own entity as a whole. There are forums for shows covered by Twop as well as forums separated by genre, for example Sci-fi, Soaps, sports, Reality TV. One of my favorite forums is the Rec Room. Know for its zany recreational forum topics including my motivation is this, a picture based caption contest where forum members can post any image from a television show they wish with funny comments. More than anything Twop shows me how revolutionary or media world has become. We now have a world where television viewers have the opportunity to reflect on programming they watch and voice there opinion.
