re: "the different ways people inhabit, and work with the tv that's meaningful for them"

Diane Winston: "Part of why tv has become even more powerful as a place for working out social and cultural issues is that we are no longer isolated intelligences watching in our own homes. I'm struck by the number of blogs [or twitters] that work on issues around Dexter, around zombies or vampires, asking 'what does it mean to be human,' 'what is morality,' 'how does justice figure into love' 'how do i know what is spiritual,' 'can people change?'
