Yahoo! News reports that the Twin Cities (that's Minneapolis and St. Paul) don't really watch that much TV. What's the catch? Well, despite the long winters and the fact that many of the households are upper-class (and therefore able to afford premium services), the area still ranks 201st among 210 cities in cable and satellite subscription. And the Twin Cities is one of the top 20 largest markets in America. So how do you get a whopping 41 percent of a region to turn off the TV each night? Give them all college degrees! A few of use here at TV Squad have college degrees (they make good placemats) but we think Minneapolis and St. Paul just need to be reminded that pop culture is the new academia. Joyce, Lawrence, Lowell? No no no...Britney, Kevin, Kutcher! Be proud of your large-market status, Twin Cities! TiVo Cops! while you drink beaujolais, for all we care! Just do it!
