Is it being intellectually lazy or socially malleable to enjoy the occasional piece of well-written, high-budget content?

I submit that HBO's "Rome" was better than anything youtube has ever produced, and more satisfying to me than many hours spent wandering facebook and social news sites.

I don't have an easy a time judging other people's tastes; I have a little humility.

No, it's not. But the television infrastructure as we know it is designed not for people who enjoy it "occasionally", but for hours upon hours every day.
