This is also kind of true. The rules for broadcast tend to skew toward the restrictive in order to appease the most vocal people. Folks who want nudity and such on TV are far less likely to protest and cause a fuss than folks who don't want it on there. Mostly because it isn't that they actually want the TV full of nudity but because they don't really care if it is or isn't there.

It serves to the lowest common denominator; the continued dumbing down of society.

It's a baby sitter, entertainment, a must-have. (general sentiment, but not mine) It's almost weird to meet someone that doesn't have a TV in their house. Girl I'm seeing now doesn't have one at all, I'm...impressed.

Once I realized what a 'laugh-track' was and realized how creepy they really sound, knowing it's fake...a whole lot of questions started entering my head and I took the pill at a very early age.

Shit's cancer.
