If I think that the sky is blue or lemons are sour, that is more than a personal opinion. Contrary to "what everyone thinks is no more than personal opinion," I believe in such a thing as objective reality. I like to believe that some things are true regardless of anyone's opinion.

Now, regarding PPZ as a parody: I feel that I do have a good sense of satire. When something is intended to satirize or parody another product, I can usually recognize it. I didn't sense that at all in PPZ. It seemed to me that this was being presented as a program complete in itself. It's purpose was not to make fun of the source material.
