That argument, Johnson emphasizes, "does not mean that Survivor will someday be viewed as our Heart of Darkness or Finding Nemo our Moby-Dick." Rather, apples to apples, today's pop media are far more challenging than yesterday's. The Sopranos' interlaced plots make Hill Street Blues look like a Barney video. Nemo tracks many more characters and story lines than did Bambi. And supposedly mindless shows like The Apprentice are graduate seminars compared with '70s trash like The Love Boat, requiring us to parse webs of relationships, motives and strategies.

All the same, the original gaffe was an unnerving example of the tendency toward impulsive...
...test the benefits of weightlessness on industrial processes. An isothermal heating oven melted samples of metals such as nickel and molybdenum to a temperature of 1,600C to test a technique for creating stronger alloys, while a mirror-heater was employed to grow ultrapure crystals, which could someday benefit the microchip industry...
