I asked one of my friends if he saw the recent Lost finale, and he said he never really got into the show.  I told him he missed some pretty cool stuff and that he's throwing his life away by not watching good TV shows.  I think our culture has finally (thankfully) gotten over the whole idea of TV rotting the brain.  In fact, I think it's come full circle -- not that people who don't watch TV have underdeveloped brains, but that they're often missing out on things.  There are interesting plot lines, compelling characters, action, adventure, and entertainment galore.  Sure we could all sit around and read books and write poetry (or whatever cavepeople did before TV), but people are finding that TV isn't the brain-melting downward spiral it was originally believed to be.  Perhaps this is because the people who used to complain about TV are all old and gray now, and the people who grew up watching TV as kids are now in positions of influence.  Or maybe TV just got better (aside from the dancing programs).  Either way, it's good to be able to watch TV, enjoy it, and not feel bad about it. #entertainment
