TV is about making the most money possible in the shortest amount of time so is it any wonder it's so bad?

The commercial content is relentless. Honestly I can't see how people can watch it for hours on end.
Sitcoms are just that... Situation Comedies. They've never had anything to do with reality.
The dumb white guy as a central character is a universal one. Looking at it now it just seems so lame.

Don't even get me started on so called "Reality TV".

But TV does affect culture. I'm sure people adjust their morals based on what's presented as "OK" on TV.

My neighbour is a cop (a good one) and he's convinced the crime shows affect what people do out in the real world.
I'm not sure he's right but I'm not a cop so I can't really fault his logic.
