Sorry guys! This post will be a tv-bashing post... with 3 videos for your viewing pleasure. 
Our son is 6 and luckily we don't have cable. We rent some cartoons/movies at the local library. Most of the time we choose together. Sometimes he chooses something 'questionable', but just as Superman said, we try to offer him some counterviews and a healthy diet (because of his many allergies as well).
That's not always easy, because the dominant views are often way more appealing:
"all the other kids watch/have 'this', so why can't I?" Sometimes we give in, most times we try to explain why we give him the alternative... and luckily (at this age) that still works fine!
Kicked out the cable connection 9 years ago.
If you are still doubting it yourself and you need an extra motivation, here are two links which might help (

Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy - Television Drug of the Nation
This is the movie
'La belle verte' or
'The Green Beautiful'. It takes place on another planet in the galaxy with a similar history as on earth. The people living there live in perfect harmony. In the still below you see tv's, microwaves, etc... kicked out on the street. In their history this era was called the 'chaos before revival'-era.
Here's the full version of this movie with English subtitles:
Really rare awakening movie now available in English.
"As part of an intergalactic coalition, a well-meaning space alien volunteer wants to bring a message of self-actualization and harmony with nature to the one planet rejected by all her peers as incorrigible--Earth.
This French film, with subtitles, chronicles her adventures on the chaotic planet. Mila is 150 years old and has five children; encoded in her brain are two telepathic programs designed to restructure the thinking of destructive humans.
The first is a fairly mild program designed to inspire the humans to rethink their world and begin asking some difficult questions. The other is far stronger and rapidly indoctrinates subjects with lofty utopian ideals and makes them deeply aware of themselves. Mila lands in Paris and is unnoticed but for the sudden, inexplicable power surges and outages that occur whenever she sends a telepathic message to her alien cohorts.
It is while holding an orphan infant in an obstetrics ward that her Earthly troubles begin. Feeling deeply for the baby's plight, she confronts the ward's head doctor and when logic fails, uses her programs upon him. Instantly the unsympathetic brute sees the light and begins helping her save the babe from wicked welfare workers."
