Stop Using "But We're So Used To Teleseryes The Way They Are!" To Justify Their Poor Quality

I remembered writing an article on using that one has or we have hundreds of years of experience in something and zero experience in another as an excuse to embrace change whenever it's needed. I think the same can go for teleseryes and those who keep watching the same old idiotic shows called teleseryes. So what's wrong with teleseryes? The daily broadcast gives no room for improvement, overextension to the point of beating around the bush, one-sided stupidity and not to mention overacting is highly encouraged.

I don't care how long people have been watching those idiotic teleseryes or those shows are always the way they are -- because it has never been about having loads of experience in one and having zero experience in another. Instead, it's all about whether something has better quality or not regardless whether one has experience in it or not. It's like you've had so much experience eating from the garbage can that you'll refuse to eat proper food because you had zero experience in the latter. It would also further justify drug addiction because one's been so used in being an addict and had zero experience in not being a drug addict. 

Why are teleseryes refusing to improve and change the way they are? I think it's because the networks are used to the same stupidity regardless who steps in and out. Kris Aquino may be out of the spotlight but her overacting behavior is still carried on by other cast members. I don't see anything better with the writing of Ika 6 Na Utos (Sixth Commandment) and The Better Half from Mula Sa Puso and Esperanza -- they all beat around the bush. Not to mention, I still hate that idiotic Zaido with a passion. I don't care if they weren't advertising it as Toku but as TV Drama -- it's still substandard even as a TV drama! Instead of seeking to improve they will say, "But our TV networks have been so used to this way of doing teleseryes." -- never mind lots of stuff they are using today were once strange to them like the technology that's used in the digital age.

The same can go for its viewers. It's stupid to say, "But we're so used to watching teleseryes! Why should we watch foreign shows that you say are better?" You may even think about them saying, "But we watch teleseryes in the name of nationalism -- if you don't watch them then go to another country." as another reason. But did they even get born with the experience in watching those stupid shows? No but they love using it as an excuse because they are now so addicted to the mediocrity of their shows. It's like the habitual drunkard or drug addict who refuses to stop their destructive habit just because they have years of experience in their bad habits.
