Yo, Mister Triv,
Am I getting a smarter or is television, particularly commercial, free to air, network television, becoming even stupider?

Dear Puzzled,
Television is getting more and more stupid. Bits of it are still quite good. Deadwood, Battlestar Galactica, Myth Busters and The Trailer Park Boys for example, but most of it is extremely stupid and insulting. Australian free-to-air commercial telly is about as intelligent and engaging as a stepped-on Tamagotchi.
Interestingly you are getting smarter, too. As a species we are evolving about as fast as television is devolving. However the internet and associated tech is evolving about twice as fast as we are, so expect to get lapped by your PC any day now.
Cheers & Elevate the Insignificant,
Mr Trivia
