The variety show not the reality show made stars of people

If you are old enough to remember shows like Ed Sullivan, then you know that sometimes they would introduce new talent to the public.  Some of these people went on to be big stars and performers.  It was a time when you could set back and not be grossed out by all the crappy reality shows on tv.

Life has enough problems without bring then to tv.  The idea of tv should be to inform and also to take us away from reality from time to time.  The variety show format was a no-brainer, you could watch various types of talent and become introduced to new music and dance.  It may be time for the networks to take a look at a format that would cost them no more than the worthless reality format.
