I've seen those looks in the eyes of my own kids. As The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy rapped: "television the drug of the nation - breeding ignorance and feeding radiation" - sorry Karl Marx, you didn't see that one coming, a much better opiate.

Having said that, purposeless discovery can be ultimately fulfilling. Learning for learnings sake without a clear outcome. Although, I suppose a de-compression from day-to-day worklife is in itself an outcome. Very true. Check out this photography exhibit of children watching TV:
