I think I felt my IQ drop a few points last time I watched Beavis and Butthead.
And even the good educational stuff out there (like the History channel, Discovery channel, etc., that others have mentioned), while mentally stimulating, can be detrimental to one's physical health, if watched in excess. What one watches doesn't make one a couch potato----it's how much one watches that makes one a couch potato.
No more so than if one spends all their time reading books, and I've rarely been told to stop reading.

I blame a school system which seems to want to keep the majority of our kids just educated enough to say, "Would you like that supersized," or competent enough to do data entry.Overall, does TV dumb people down? Why or why not?
No. It just provides an effective distraction for people who don't want to learn anything.Overall, does TV dumb people down? Why or why not?

Really,nice one! I wish my TV would die a painfull fiery death,its just become a sex box i feel.And it just pollutes my thoughts, now thinking of unplugging it at least,but i dont know a life without a tv.Is there a life after,what do you do with your time now?My second TV died six months ago, haven't watched TV since, just U-tube. I'ld rather have a choice in what I watch and when I watch it.
