Not watching TV and Film is the equivalent of saying "I don't read" in the Victorian era. Good fiction explores the human condition. It poses questions to the reader / viewer to consider. It uses alternative settings to reframe real world events and forces you to re-evaluate things from different perspectives. It can break you out of rutted thinking.
Now there's an awful lot of shit out there too, but not watching Schindler's List because Love Island is crap is ludicrous.
