      Especially if it's true that they used TV analytics to further their campaign and target certain groups of voters...

      The problem is you're using anecdotes and the larger trend is what's being argued.

          But then I guess I am part of the problem since I watch as many shows on the bottom list as I do the top...and I hate more on the top list than I do the bottom. (I am indifferent to most on the bottom and never watch them) So go ahead, judge me too.

            Handy is the problem (half the time) and needs to watch better TV (half the time)

            Obviously at the individual level there's an exception to anything so you probably don't need to take this so personally lol.

                  It's a little more complicated than that. We both started watching it with our daughter when she was home. But it's so spectacularly bad that we keep watching it now on our own. I'd have to say we're equally complicit -- it's a show we watch together than neither of us would watch separately.

                            That's a foolish statement. In large part, people are what they do. And people tend to spend a ridiculous amount of time watching TV. I don't know how you can say that what they choose to spend that much time watching doesn't say something about who they are.

                            You can't smoke a pack a day and say you're into being healthy. You can't eat at McDonalds 5 times a week and say you're into fitness. You can't watch 20 hours of unchallenging, familiar, trite television a week and say you're open to new ideas or curious and engaged with the world around you.

                            Some people like safe, simple, formulaic, familiar stuff that looks like them and reaffirms their views of themselves. Other people like new, challenging, even uncomfortable stuff that might ask a little more in terms of change and introspection. Those list of TV shows align pretty well with what just happened to this country.

                            Let's not get carried away with genius or anything else like that when discussing this topic. It's television, we're distinguishing between low and middle brow, at best.

                            IMHO, television is among the roots of all evil in our society. How many billions of hours are flushed down the toilet every year, in this country alone, watching mindless crap? How many inventions, cures, great novels, songs, volunteer opportunities have gone unfulfilled due to our fixations with television? I say this not as an elitist but as someone who p i zz es away more than his fair share of time in front of the television. I get it, it's easy to do, but it's also pretty telling about who we are as a society and as individuals.

                              None.

                              Great inventors, scientists, artists and humanitarians watch little or no TV. It's a hammock for those of us who will never produce anything of value.

                              It is our opiate; don't knock it.

                              In every age there are things to fritter time away on. The talented at most 1% who create truly original and interesting science and art have always ignored time wasters and gotten on with their creating. They definitely still "waste" time with hundreds of partners and/or drugs, but to be honest that only seems to help them.
