This theory seems comepletely unfounded IMO. I've seen no proof that one tv show has more jackasses than others and when they do its usually connected to the content of the show rather than it's popularity

Also jackass seems to be very vaguely defined. Do you mean people who are usually just wrong but otherwise harmless or people who are usually right and present this in mean (funny) ways. Because we have both

And if people everywhere dont seem to have a sense of humour it probably means you arent delivering your jokes properly.
