"I know *multiple* sets of immigrant parents in the 90s who actively limited how much their kids could watch those TV shows precisely because they promoted mediocrity…and their kids went on to become wildly successful STEM graduates."

America has always been a country of permanent immigrants, not H-1B visa holders. The strength and vitality of our country has been the direct result of having welcomed immigrant groups from every corner of the world throughout our history, each group contributing their own particular talents, initiative and creativity as they are permanently integrated into our American culture.
