This depresses me on both sides. Not that TV isn't that dumb, but it doesn't sound any better when the old farts flat out admit that they had children for lack of other means to kill time...
Killing time has always been one of the big reasons people have children. It's why there's a population boomlet 9 months after major blackouts or snow storms. :-)
Long before cable or satellite when I was a youth we made my sister sit next to the TV and hold the antenna for better reception.
