It's sweeps month. We give you a different reason to yell at your TV during the local news

The Pitch has created a play-along-at-home game.

The days of KCTV Channel 5 busting dudes who have set out to bang underage kids? They’re likely over. We have yet to hear any creepy voice-overs teasing anything so skeezy for this year’s November sweeps. That doesn’t mean local stations are going to let their fall-ratings grab go by without sex, sickness and death. So while we anticipate a month of reporters breathlessly telling us about deadly household items, questionable (or miraculous!) medical procedures and sick puppies (pedophiles and honest-to-goodness ill dogs), play along with The Pitch’s Kansas City Sweeps Bingo card. Mark a box when you see or hear these standard-issue blockbuster stories. Black out a winning row and yell “Sweeps!” Then see if someone answers you.

Why do news programs compete for ratings??? Maybe they should concentrate on actual news instead of the celebrity fluff they spend most of their time on.

Yeah... like this programming reflects the norm... the rest of the time it's three-eyed puppies and trash bin fires.

This needs a "Hidden Danger Lurking INSIDE YOUR HOME".
