I watch VH1-Country because

1) It doesn't do rap or punk.

2) It's less depressing than cable news (and changes soundbites and video every two or three minutes).

3) Southern girls, in general.

4) Miranda Lambert and Deana Carter, in particular.

5) Minimal commercials. How can they afford that? Strange.

6) It enhances the taste of beer.

7) After twelve beers, the video looks and sounds even better.

8) The next morning it's still there singing and strummin'. No cleanup except beer cans required.
