There's more to it than that. I'm going on memory, but the stuff I read said that flatlining damages key parts of your brain after prolonged exposure.
I suggest you research if interested. I don't see the point of debating it further. I'm not a scientist and probably would mangle the info, and I don't see a need to convert others to ditching TV. I brought it up because I think it's interesting and compelling, but to each his own entertainment and learning.
