Heaven and the saints defend us...
Honestly the shit that's on television sometimes stuns the mind. The umpteenth incarnation of Big Brother, The Family guy and The Footy show *retch* just make me wonder how much banality people will accept.
Thank god for Inspector Rex! A long-time favourite of the little guy's. We watch religiously as Rex and his human counterparts solve all the crime in Vienna.
Yes Rex is a dog! A sort of mixture of Rin-tin-tin and The littlest Hobo he solves crimes, rescues children, takes on bad guys and has a great time stealing food! Tonight he broke down the barriers between some homeless children and the police, and then subsequently rescued the kids from a burning train carriage! What a dog :)
Not only are the story-lines good, we are also improving our language skills! We've been watching since he was 5 and at first I had to read all the subtitles to the little guy (paraphrasing hastily some of the more questionable parts), but now he can read most of them himself Yay! And can even recognise a good portion of the commonly used German phrases.
I find myself suddenly wanting to write a Rex fic - maybe I could team him with Jayne? They both bark, growl and have an obsession with food...

I agree with you about the amount of crap on television. I’ve just recently discovered the awesomeness that is HBO (Carnivale, Six feet under) although decidedly not kid friendly television programming. ; )
