I have no idea what that programme you reference is, but I'm thinking back to that episode of The West Wing where Toby swore to defend the Muppets and Julia Child... and am thinking that it's probably along the same lines :)
I haven't looked to see what my response to this day of the meme was, but I suspect it was nowhere near as articulate or considered as this. I completely agree that TV can be a force for good (*winces at terrible cliche!*) and that sadly, it's just as often a home for trash and banality. But fortunately, our show falls into neither category and you've summed it up nicely.
