The possible effect of television on its viewers has been a source of controversy for decades. Over the years, the flickering box has been blamed for every kind of social problem and antisocial act, and in many cases has been found guilty by an audacious but often surprisingly shaky range of studies. The hypothesis that television makes people mad, bad, or otherwise dangerous to know, has been tested in multifarious ways, whilst researchers have also investigated whether television might actually do viewers good.
