Therefore, he had a built in bias not to like TV, as much as he may protest, that he was objective.

Yep. He was miffed. I, too, thought his miffdom showed through in his writing.

I figured he had his eye on that neighbor couple as free babysitters. And then they up and moved to The Villages. How dare they.
