@Truth: It also makes sense for us to want to be awake at night; all the stoopid people in the region are (usually) asleep.
@ MTM: I actually liked the arcs involving Juliet a lot better than most of the final season(s); the grand finale did a good job at ending the show, but the entire last season was just...off. That and all of the other shows ending and being replaced by dumber new shows are what made me give up on Disney Channel, except for the occasional episode of Phineas and Ferb--and even that seems to be getting dumbed down over time as well.
Why do we (as a society/species/whatever) treat our children like [insert strong synonym for "fools" here]? When did we forget that kids tend to change to fit our expectations, so if we expect them to be dumb, annoying brats, that's exactly how they'll turn out? Seriously, the American education system is teaching kids to be dumb robots who have no social capacity and zero independent thought or creativity whatsoever.
Also, whoever decided that arts funding should be the first thing slashed from school budgets during a financial crisis should be shot, then brought back to life, then shot again. And then resurrected and slowly roasted alive over a pool of molten iron and I've forgotten where I was going with this metaphor.
But yeah, whoever made that decision deserves to
buuuuuuurn.
