This kind of content taking off and the popularity of the Kardashians were the proverbial canary in the coal mine for the intellectual apocalypse we're dealing with now. We are what we eat, and what you watch absolutely influences how you think and act.
I used to watch Trading Spaces back in the day, and I remember when they started off and they'd actually do a good job, then I think there was an episode where the couple didn't like what they'd done, that got more engagement, then it became a show about neighbors ruining each other's homes, and thus was born reality television.
