People who don't watch TV do tend to mention it at every opportunity.

Most of those opportunities are probably situations when the topic of conversation has already turned to television and they are politely excusing their lack of participation.

In my experience, the topic rarely comes up. My guess is most people who would care are off watching TV rather than socializing.

I think knowing about popular culture is actually quite valuable. Especially if you're trying to sell to end users as many of us here are.

Like checking reddit, watching youtube vids, laughing at lolcats? ;)
