100222- A joke

.....In the 1960's, when a television show ran the credits at the end they looked like they were printed on title cards; they were often in large block letters and would list four to six names at a time, and after one set of names had been on screen for a few seconds it would either switch to the next or quickly fade out as the next one faded in. Twenty years later television production became more complicated technologically and legally. In the 1980's you were more likely to see names scroll up the screen continuously as in a movie, but faster to get through quickly. Twenty years on they no longer bother having closing theme music. In the last decade it became standard procedure to shrink the credits down to the size of a bottle cap and shove them into one corner of the screen so that the rest of the screen can be used for advertising more shows. What names they do show zip by quicker than anyone could possibly read them. And I think I've finally figured out why: after shoveling crap at us for sixty years they've finally become too afraid to admit who's responsible.
