I'm not sure if they're damaging per se - i think it very much depends on the content. Films like The Secret, Waking Life, What the Beep do we Know...must be good for the psyche, surely? Just as movies with a negative connotation could be bad. I personally think that watching or listening to the news has a very negative affect on how we think as a nation and beyond...if we had good news reports I think it would have the opposite effect!
I don't own a TV so like many here I pick carefully what I'd like to see. I spend most of my daze staring at a PC so the last thing I want at night is to stare at another screen! Reality rules...
