You can get good recommendations anywhere, that wasn't really my point.
I was just enjoying the irony of pumping up daytime television versus TikTok like they aren't both segmented dripfeeds of current pop culture and criticized in their day for it.
The people who mocked daytime TV originally in turn were probably mocked by people that got their recommendations from the Reader's Digest and National Enquirer, and they're mocked as young'uns by readers of literary magazines, and those whippersnappers are getting drek when they could be getting their family bible hand printed by the local monastery.

Daytime television is TikTok for people that still use landlines, nobody's winning here
