Can I add another thing to the list...
All daytime telly. Full stop.
Why? Because it's watched exclusively by people who contribute nothing to society, and it just worsens the problem by conditioning millions of people (mainly women) into thinking it's proper to sit on their arses all day watching telly and doing the odd bit of hoovering (oooh, it's a full time job being a housewife you know! Crap).
Whenever I catch a glimpse of daytime telly, on the odd day off work, it's always people with body piercings from council estates having rows with each other on Trisha, and low budget home improvement drivel.
IMO we need government information broadcasts to teach people how they can get back into full-time work and put something back. If any historians in here know about Samuel Smiles' "self help" campaign in the 19th Century, they'll know where I'm coming from. Let's use television to break the dependency culture.

That's a very simpistic viewpoint isn't it?

I thought this was the 21st Century? Women have equal rights, and there's a growing number of househusbands and career women! And what about those that are disabled and can't work as well?

It is, yes. But whatever the circumstances, the fact remains that people aren't contributing anything to society by virtue of the very fact that they're watching daytime telly. I don't have much time for people who contribute nothing to society.
