A bland, nauseating mix of courtroom TV, televangelists, tawdry talk shows, infomercials, moldy
game shows, depressing news stories, gagworthy soap operas that lower the already low
standard, televised church services, inaccurate weather forecasts, increasingly vacant programs for pre-K children, and instructional quilting/home improvement programs. The TV equivalent of cold
oatmeal, or cafeteria food.
Antonyms: Primetime Television, adult swim.
"I'd rather go to
work/school with a stomach virus than
sit at home nibbling saltines and watching Judge Joe Brown. Daytime
Television just makes me feel sicker."
