Two Things
1 - "Real" people are not good subjects for do-gooder type shows because "real" people are so flawed that they are beyond redemption. We should go back to worshipping the fake people of TV-before-reality-TV.
2 - "One of my favorite things about teenagers is that they have no idea how empty and tedious their lives are going to be eventually." Good lord - you think the life of a teenager isn't empty and tedious? Have you ever listened to two teenagers talk to each other? What could possibly make you think that adult life is MORE tedious than teen life? At least adults can (usually) *afford* mind-numbing substances like cable TV and expensive booze.
