People spend a lot of time watching TV in America. It will improve that mundane experience so they can relax and enjoy. It might also actually help the advertisers in the long run. People will be less likely to turn off the commercials I think.
This is reminiscent of a science fiction book (I forget the name or the author) I read, back in the early '70's. in the book, an inventor became famous for inventing "Adnix", a device which, when attached to the TV set, muted all commercials. Advertisers were up in arms over it, but to no avail. But the inventor's downfall was when he invented another device called "Preachnix", which muted everything said by televangelists, and that just pissed off too many people. LOL.
