Sunday Morning

Since 1979 a Sunday morning activity for me has been watching CBS Sunday Morning.  First with Charles Kuralt and now with Charles Osgood this program has been the TV version of the Sunday newspaper.  It covers the news, weather and sports but also includes sections on the arts, music, movies, human interest, commentary and it "moment with nature" at the end of the show.  Judging by its commercials for drugs and financial services you would think that it is mostly watched by older persons but it still wins its time slot ratings with people 25-54 which is why it has stayed on the air so long.

Watching Sunday Morning is an example of why Sunday is my favorite day of the week.  It is the only day where I don't have to be productive.  Not having to do anything but watch a TV show or read a newspaper till noon just doesn't fit into my schedule any other day.  So if it is 9 am on Sunday it must be "Sunday Morning" for me.
