Lack of "family entertainment"

There has been a lack of family entertainment on the TV lately.  Maybe it is a sign of the destruction of the family or it might be a sign that everyone is starting to use their own personal TV set, but there is not anything for the entire family to congregate in from of the TV for some quality entertainment.  I have been flipping through the channels and there are not many "family friendly" shows.  Game shows like Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader are a good start and maybe something on Disney or ABC Family, but there is not anything in general for the entire family to flop in front of.  It seems like The Simpsons and NFL Football is on the only  thing that is good, but NFL Football is only orientated for mostly men, like all other sporting events, with an exception of figure skating.

The network TV might have more "family friendly" shows than the cable, but it seems like they are raunchy.  I heard a lot of people like American Idol and the X Factor, and you are seeing more family sitcom coming back, but I haven't paid much attention to them.  I might as well watch Hulu and see what these shows are about; they might be quality entertainment.

The internet is starting to have way more better entertainment than the TV.  Where else you can watch music videos on demand?  MTV is reborn and I am only 20 years old on a thing called Vevo, which is awesome.  And you have way better options for entertainment on YouTube.  YouTube has basically killed TV and the viral videos are more family friendly than the general television.  But I think it is rather uncomfortable to sit watching a computer screen; sometimes you want to kick back.  I think in the future, and it is starting now, the internet and TV is going to merge.  We are in the 21st century and it will make an awesome TV experience if you have the internet in the living room.  But there will be a lot of compromise on what to watch and it may take some time to search.

I think there should be a flip flop.  The family shows should go on the TV and put all the kooky stuff on the internet.  Some of these shows could be watched in private.
