TV's message: We're broke TELEVISION | Shows laugh and cry with us about our great national malaise Comments November 5, 2010 BY PAIGE WISER TV Critic/[email protected] Whatever happened to TV as escapism? Traditionally, we have turned to the small screen as a way to forget our pathetic problems, not be faced with them in high definition. But the poor recession even is affecting our precious TV leisure time, and the sets haven't looked so realistic since "Sanford and Son" ran a junkyard. MTV's "16 and Pregnant" has spun off into "Teen Mom," with the drama of underprivileged single moms taking the place of the overprivileged blonds of "Laguna Beach." A selection of other titles on the current schedule: "Downsized" "Outsourced" "Fairy Jobmother" "Design on a Dime" Even "The Apprentice" has acknowledged the economic downtown, with candidates who have been laid off or have failed companies. (Fittingly, the show hasn't been a ratings success; next season will be another installment of "Celebrity Apprentice.") Is Debbie Downer the head of programming these days? "TV producers are more in tune now that people are in bad shape," says Elayne Rapping, a pop culture expert with a particular interest in TV. "I don't think it's changed the TV landscape forever, nor has it changed it completely.
