After being an avid TV watcher for close to 30 years, I'm getting a sneaking suspicion that there's a point where TV just... won't matter any more. I'm dreading that day, but it probably relates to the profound correlation between increasing consumption and decreasing interest in the content offered.
As you can see below, erudite hipsters - driven by the confluence of BitTorrent, NPR, and a general distrust of the media - unsurprisingly lead the way. (There is that notable faction of hipsters who watch TV strictly for ironic purposes, something that requires more study.) And when Tom Bergeron starts providing wacky narration on YouTube, it's pretty much all over.
This is way over my head. But then again, I am merely a luddite.
