Synopsis

In this witty and candid perspective on American television, the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Howard Rosenberg traces a disturbing pattern: TV's relentless pursuit of the mundane in its seeming quest to dumb-down America. And, he writes, it may be succeeding. The longer mediocrity endures, Mr. Rosenberg advises, the greater the chance we will become permanently desensitized to it―and seduced by it―making third-rate the standard.
