Thursday Thinking - Television and Attention Spans
Slow TV is taking Norway by storm. It's more than a quirky innovation, it's a brilliant concept I hope will catch on in the USA. How can something seemingly so boring turn out to be so exciting? Watch it and think about it.
At first, I was thinking, "How silly and stupid," but as the talk continued I started having flashbacks of "The Truman Show" and "Ed TV". This might really work. I know I would be more interested in a real-time cruise down the Mississippi than any "Real Housewives of..." fakery ever devised.
