Unlike the intent of dumbing down viewers, television has the potential for helping people improve their memory. TV has so many commercials that viewers either have TiVo and don't watch them or watch one channel until commercials, then turn to at least one other channel to avoid commercials. In this way, they remember what's going on in two or three different shows. I mute commercials or watch something else. TNT is notorious for losing my interest so much so that I flat out don't retun to the channel because of the 5- 7 minutes of commericals followed by 2 minutes of show, etc.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.
